A plasterboard buyer’s checklist

A useful plasterboard order identifies the room, sheet type, dimensions, edge and quantity. Resolve the intended finish and any special system requirements before comparing prices for sheets that only look similar.
Define the selection
Confirm the application using the current manufacturer documentation. Keep the lining, framing, accessories and intended finish together in the specification so the material schedule can be checked as a whole.
Check before comparing products
- Room use and nominated board type.
- Sheet size, edge and thickness.
- Access, handling and collection arrangements.
Build a material list that can be checked
Record the selected product name or SKU, each required size and the quantity for each work area. Use the actual listed coverage when estimating packs or boards, and confirm the allowance with your installer. Include compatible accessories and keep a copy of the agreed selections.
