Partition wall for home – Create the space of your dreams
Do you dream of a new room but don't want to tear down the walls? Partition walls made of plasterboard are a simple and effective solution for creating additional space. They allow you to quickly and efficiently change the layout of a room, create additional rooms, ensure privacy, and improve sound insulation. Installing this type of partition wall takes much less time than constructing brick or concrete walls.
Advantages of plasterboard partitions for the home
Plasterboard partitions are an ideal choice for residential and commercial premises. Here are the main advantages of this choice:
- Ease and speed of installation – Building a plasterboard partition wall does not require much effort or time, as this material is convenient for processing and installation.
- Cost-effectiveness – The cost of materials and installation for drywall partitions is much lower than for brick or concrete walls.
- Versatility – Plasterboard structures can be installed in various types of rooms, including wet areas such as bathrooms or kitchens (when using moisture-resistant sheets).
Thanks to special materials added during installation, partitions can significantly enhance sound and thermal insulation.
Types of plasterboard partitions for the home
Depending on your goals and needs, plasterboard partitions can have different designs, thicknesses, and insulating properties and can be used in different areas of a room, namely:
- Conventional plasterboard partitions – Used for space zoning, separation of rooms, or creating corners in large spaces. They provide basic sound insulation and are suitable for construction in dry rooms (e.g. bedrooms and living rooms).
- Soundproof partitions – To ensure a high level of privacy or reduce noise in the house, partitions with an additional soundproofing layer can be installed. Typically, such structures are used in children's rooms, home offices, or between bedrooms and living rooms.
- Fire-resistant partitions – Often used in commercial buildings as well as in private homes where safety is a priority.
- Moisture-resistant partitions – Used in places with high humidity, such as kitchens, bathrooms, or laundries. Moisture-resistant drywall has a special coating that prevents moisture penetration and protects the wall from fungus and mould.
If you want the partition to serve a decorative function, you can finish it with textured paint, wallpaper, tiling, or even decorative panels. This will allow you to add stylish accents to the interior of your home.
Stages of construction of a drywall partition
Installing a drywall partition wall is a process that involves several important steps. PlasterX in Melbourne offers professional services, ensuring quality and accuracy at every step:
- The first stage – This involves developing a partition layout and determining the dimensions and design. Our experts work alongside you to discuss your needs and requirements.
- Installation of the frame – The basis of the partition is a metal or wooden frame, which provides stability and strength to the structure.
- Laying of communications – If you need to lay electrical wiring, ventilation ducts, or other communications within the partition, this work is carried out at this stage.
- Installation – Drywall sheets are attached to the frame to form the walls of the partition. The joints and seams are treated to create a smooth surface.
- Finishing – At the final stage, the wall is puttied, painted, or wallpapered, depending on your preferences.
