GIB lining in Auckland
Plasterboard fixed straight and screwed to depth, so the stopping and paint that follow have a flat surface to sit on.

Most of the faults you see in a finished wall start at the lining stage. Boards hung out of line, joints in the wrong place or screws driven through the paper all show up later as cracks and ridges under the paint.
We line new builds, renovations and commercial fit-outs, and we work in with your builder so the job stays on programme. Because the same crew stops and paints the walls afterwards, there is no handover between trades and nothing to argue about later.
What we do
- Walls and ceilings in new builds and renovations
- Standard and wet-area board
- Replacing damaged or water-stained sheets
- Commercial fit-outs and tenancy work
The paint we finish with
When we paint the walls we have lined, stopped or plastered, it is with Resene or Dulux, so the finish is as good as the surface under it.
Resene, voted New Zealand's most trusted paint brand every year from 2012 to 2023

What is GIB stopping? It is the finishing of plasterboard: joints taped, screws filled, coats built up and sanded until the board reads as one smooth surface, ready for paint. Here is how it is done, so you can judge a quote or a finished job.
