bent plasterboard ?

[Paul]

Hi lads great forum as always

just wondered what would be the solution in this situation ive seen walls say in a downstairs loo and the plasterboard doesnt stay flush from one end to another it starts ok then sort of bends back into the studs at the other end if you get me

would this be that the board is bent or would it be that the studs havent been flush when built meaning the board that was put up wouldnt be right ?

Thanks Paul

Probably a lack of noggings..

Hi Gooner yes there has been only on the downstairs laminate floor its been from our dodgy toilet that has leaked meaning i cant tile the floor as yet had a plumber round as he,s done his best but cant seem to totally stop the leak its one of those toilets that look all nice but are a pain its sits on the wall not the floor

Cheers

Noggings are the supports between the studs( uprights) and to insert will mean removal of plaster board..

sounds as if daves got it here,there doesn't seem to be enough support for the plasterboard

The stud could be bowed!

You might want to consider changing the plumber too!

Sounds like an insurance claim to me.
