Do they have kingspan on the back or polystyrene.

Insulated boards are a knob to dab. As for constructive input, I'm sorry I have none as I can't remember what we last paid.

In my local Travis they call boards with 22mm polly on the back thermal line basic boards. Thermal line boards are 40mm

Thought so, they are a bit cheaper but thats still a decent price you're getting them at.

I'm using the ones with an inch of compressed kingspan type stuff on them with brown paper on the back. And they are pretty good compared to some of the shyte ive used. Quite heavy but not curled across the width like so many are and the adhesive actually sticks to them really well without having to smear the backs of them.

what you could do is if your b and q has 12mm 2400x1200, plaster boards and polystyrene insulation sheets then glue the poly on to the boards. i never done this but i have skimmed a house out where the builder did this to save money and to this day it worked, well i've never been asked to go back and replaster it so it must have.

Or the builder blamed you so he can't have you back on the job can he? :-0

 

[raggles]

So do you think he used solvite to fix the foam to the boards cos it worked a treat omEPF ceiling tiles

no no no!!! i do from time to time still do work for the builder and if there was a problem he would tell me ( bubbles65, raggles, spunky). i dont know what he used for glue but still as far as he knows the boards are fine and as i only skimmed them i dont care. so should they fall apart i'd still get the job to put them right and its money i my pocket. And the thing is it was much cheaper for the builder to do it this way but like i've said "i would not do it this way my self".
