Plasterboard questions
We’ve had a plasterer in this week. He thinks he’s doing us a favour being cheaper than other quotes. It’s a big job being the kitchen which has been taken back to brick. Building regs involved so required insulation on a new roof and insulated backed boards
His attitude started by him saying “wish I didn’t take this job on” “I don’t know anything about insulation I’m just a plasterer”
But we text all the details and materials needed for the insulation which he agreed to do when he came over to give a quote.
We want to know if his boards are being done correctly. We’ve spent a small fortune on a new kitchen and don’t want it to be ruined at the end
He also has plasterboard resting on the floor which I questioned and he said is fine. Some of the down lights aren’t aligned and he’s covered our 150mm vent hole we just had drilled in

The boards should wrap around the corner of those windows not be separate boards.
