  • What fixings are people using for plasterboard that has been dot & dabbed?

    Are these metal sheathed ones any good?

    [Edit]

    Scratch that - it's apparently a timber framed building, so the plasterboard is screwed to timber studs.

  • I usually use the same metal hollow wall anchors and just drill into the breeze block behind to give it enough room to seat.

    For lighter items, you could just use the easyfix self drill plasterboard screws. Just don’t try to fix them where there’s a dot as they’ll fail.

  • What are you fixing? I have used a version of those with a radiator and hung a friend's TV. Both still on the wall.

  • If you can’t screw into the stud I’d use toggles always.
