@truth3358 Id recommend to have the cracks central to a new board (where possible) , so that the new plasterboard joint is in a different position. Also using a combination of screws & adhesive can help lock everything in place. I had the exact same on my living room ceiling & i've had no problems since. Hope that helps 😁
Great video, is that the Gyproc Standard Square edge 9.5mm Plasterboard, (L)1.8m (W)0.9m from B&Q ? Also plan on overboardig soon , good thing I watched this video, was planning on getting the 12.5.. didnt even know 9.5 existted lol also can i use the mega stick if im overboarding over spiky artex texture (which prob contains asbestos)? Hope you'll make a ceiling pastering video too.
Hi, Thank you for the comment! Yes that was the plasterboard & size I was using. And yeah the mega stick should work exactly the same on most surfaces. Just remember to give the ceiling a light spray with water before applying, and then you should be good to go. Hope that helps😊
Hi, would removing the existing plasterboard and putting the new one instead work ? I have an Artex ceiling and thinking it might be easy to remove the Artexed damaged ceiling plasterboard and put new one instead !! Thanks
Hi, honestly that would be my last option due to a few reasons. If it’s an old lathe & plaster ceiling, the removal is a very messy job. Also by overboarding, you will have slightly better insulation and a much easier time.
I've just done a quick search and MegaStik claims there is limited evidence. However its probably best to wear gloves as other brands may differ. Appreciate the comment & heads up 🙌
Hello there! You are doing great and the content is awesome
Carry on dear,🥰
Great vid mate! Helped me a lot. When putting the drywall screws in were they going into the joists above or just in the existing celling ? Cheers!
Glad it was helpful!
Other than the overhang, they all went into the joists 👍
Great work just a question for you what happens if the ceiling above you is weak, i.e. has three or four long cracks in it what do you recommend do?
👍

@@reno_with_us thanks for your advice, I really appreciate it
Be careful with the adhesive man it's carcinogenic. ALWAYS wear gloves with that stuff, other than that man you've done a really good job!!
