Dry Lining
Dry lining is a fast, clean, and cost-effective method of finishing internal walls and ceilings, providing a smooth surface ready for painting or decoration. At Doyle Plastering, we specialise in professional dry lining services across residential and commercial projects, ensuring precise installation with a flawless finish. Whether you’re renovating or working on a new build, our expert team delivers durable results that enhance insulation, improve soundproofing, and transform your space.
What is dry lining
Dry lining is a modern alternative to wet plastering that involves attaching plasterboard sheets to internal walls, ceilings, or timber/metal stud partitions. This creates a flat, smooth finish that is ready for paint, wallpaper, or additional decorative treatments. Because it avoids the long drying times and mess of traditional plaster, dry lining is often the preferred solution for both homeowners and contractors working on tight deadlines.
Whether you’re finishing a new build or upgrading older interiors, dry lining provides a clean, professional surface and can also be combined with insulation boards for improved warmth and comfort.
Benefits of Dry Lining
Investing in dry lining offers a range of practical advantages:
- Quick installation – Dry lining speeds up projects significantly compared to plastering, meaning less disruption to your home or business.
- Energy efficiency – When paired with insulation, dry lining helps retain heat, improving comfort and reducing energy costs.
- Noise reduction – Soundproof boards can be used to minimise sound transfer between floors or adjoining rooms, ideal for offices or multi‑occupancy buildings.
- Durability and finish – Once installed, dry lining provides a strong, even surface that allows for crisp decorating results.
From faster turnaround times to better insulation, dry lining delivers long‑lasting value.

Tom Burton22/03/2024 I'd highly recommend Doyle Plastering to anyone looking for a reliable, professional plastering company. I had a site visit from Dean who talked me through the process of External Rendering and we scheduled in our job. The finished job was good quality and delivered on time and on budget. They also finished off some internal plastering that needed doing as well. On the whole Dean and his team were a pleasure to deal with. Glen Stillman05/10/2023 A very professional and skilled team. Tidy workers, respectful of our property and good attention to detail. Very pleased with the end result - exterior insulation, render and paint bungalow after extensive refurbishment. Thanks Dean. Dino Savvides10/06/2023 I contacted Dean Doyle of Doyle Plastering because we needed the front of the house rendered as the original render was cracking and we also wanted the wood panelling on the top part of our bungalow removed. Dean Doyle attended and gave us an estimate which was a fair price and we accepted it and asked him to proceed. Even though he was very busy with the amount of jobs he has to do, he gave us a starting date and came with his team. They were working on the house for well over a week with a team of four hard workers. The amount of work they did was incredible and the finished result was amazing. We were so glad to have asked this firm to do the job on our bungalow. They were recommended to us and our neighbours were all commenting on what a great job they did and how lovely it looks. I have no hesitation in recommending this firm and if you are lucky to get them to do work on your house then you will not be disappointed. Great work by an honest, hardworking and professional group of people. Stella Gittins23/05/2023 We instructed Dean and his team to insulate and render our home following a lengthy renovation. Tidy, high quality, personable, honest, professional and experts in their field, we are absolutely thrilled with the results and would not hesitate to recommend Doyle Plastering. ( We also recommend you check out their spraying render clips on Instagram .. addictive! ) kari sethi26/02/2023 Dean and the boys have just finished plastering our whole house. Really fair price, and top quality work. Also been done in a really timely manner. Really really impressed and would recommend them for anyone that needs plastering work! Peter Turner15/02/2023 Dean certainly knows his stuff. You know a skilled artisan when he makes it look easy and the end result is perfect. Dean and crew did a super job and fitted us into a small window of mild weather. Dean kept us informed and even got the K-rend rep round to help us choose. Meticulous preparation, efficient and tidy with a brilliant finish. Couldn't have asked for more. Helen Williams25/08/2022 Dean and his team have been amazing and the end result is brilliant. They have been the tidiest trades people we have ever had the privilege to know and have been polite, honest and extremely hard working. We can not recommend them highly enough. Yvette Woodfine24/11/2021 Dean is a very honest , highly skilled Professional Plasterer and shows a maturity beyond his years. The quality of his work (and his team) are outstanding! Very importantly pricing is fair and not hiked because of his skill. The work they do can be messy but they clear and tidy daily. They work so hard and like others have said stay beyond hours to finish and also will work weekends if needed. Nothing is to much to ask they will always oblige to help and customer satisfaction is paramount to Dean and is always at the forefront of his efforts. They can be left alone in the knowing they will continue with the job in hand. He is so busy and will never need to advertise as the quality of his work is the only sales marketing he will ever need! During his time working at our home he has had several enquiries DAILY from passers by. There may be times when he can’t come at a time or on a specific day but that is only to be expected as they have more ongoing jobs than just yours so please remember that as we aren’t his only customers at any one time. We had to wait months for several reasons but one being that he is so in demand but he is worth waiting for if you genuinely want the BEST . I wish Dean was an all round tradesmen as I honestly wouldn’t have a need to go anywhere else in future. We have already booked him for several other jobs and I’ll be looking to find more! I wish Dean every success for the future and can see his business genuinely going from strength to strength and his team growing rapidly and to be honest that’s exactly what he deserves for all his efforts. Ryan and Lewis are also a credit to him so hard working and polite. Thank you Dean . Craig O'Connor14/09/2021 Dean and Doyle Plastering are the only firm we will use for all our ReOc Properties and Build projects. Never lets us down, even works 7 days a week when needed. You will not find better quality thats for sure. We look forward to continuing our exceptional relationship with these guys. Craig/Loyd and the ReOc team.
