I have been quoted 2500 for drylining a kitchen, which involves taking out kitchen units and putting them back, moving all plugs, moving rads, replastering. the kitchen is 13 feet by 22 feet, but one of the walls does not need doing. The plasterboard going up is good quality insulation plasterboard.

DOes that price seem right.
 
very cheap but be warned if its the insulated board that they use the screw fixing supplied and not just stick them to the wall i assume that price is for labour only
 
well if slab is insulated it must be spotted with a bonding material and stuck to the wall and then 6 4"plastic screws inserted to slab and wall it prevents movement and lessens the likelihood of them falling off in the future
 
James, I don't know where you are getting your info from. The tried and tested way of fixing Xtratherm/Kingspan is with with plastic mushrooms. What does bonding adhesive do that mushrooms won't and what happens if you have foilbacked insulation sheets? Try getting bonding adhesive to stick to that or am I missing something?
 
Hi Simeon I suspect what James was talking about when he said plastic screws was mushrooms.
 
yes that was what i was refering to and also the fact that when you purchase the kingspan slap there is also a bonding like substance to be used in conjunction with the screws ,its mixed and the slab is spotted 8 times and adhered to the wall then drilled with a 7mm bit and the screws or mushrooms inserted some people have been known to forgo using the bonding material reccomended by kingspan and use ordinary bonding
