Auckland Plasterers

Gib® fixing and Gib® stopping refer to two essential stages in installing and finishing plasterboard. Gib® fixing is the process of attaching plasterboard sheets to the framework of walls or ceilings to create a smooth base for finishing, forming the structural foundation before any further work is done. Gib® stopping, on the other hand, involves finishing the plasterboard joints and preparing the surface for the final treatment, such as painting, wallpapering, or decorating.

At Above Board, we understand how challenging plasterboard fixing and stopping can be. Poor workmanship often results in uneven finishes or patches that ruin the look of an entire wall—and we’ve seen many DIY disasters. Even a small mistake can sometimes require redoing the whole job, costing time and money.

That’s why we provide expert Gib® fixing and stopping services to get it right the first time. Our skilled team carefully selects the right plasterboard for your needs and securely installs it to create a solid, even foundation. Once the boards are in place, we expertly tape and plaster the joints, screws, and imperfections for a flawless finish. With our attention to detail and high-quality workmanship, we create smooth walls and ceilings that are ready to impress.
