Core Service
Our Core Gypsum Services
We install high-quality drywall partitions to divide your spaces efficiently. Our team handles the layout, framing, and boarding process with professionalism. We make sure the studs are aligned properly and spaced according to standard guidelines.
Framing alignment is verified using a Hilti laser level to ensure perfect vertical tolerances before boarding. We use 12.5mm Knauf fire-rated gypsum boards screwed to the metal studs, fully satisfying Dubai Civil Defense (DCD) Fire and Life Safety Code of Practice Chapter 4 requirements for 1-hour fire-rated partition assemblies. We have successfully completed numerous commercial partitions for office towers in Business Bay, ensuring compliance with landlord design criteria and municipal safety regulations.

Moisture-Resistant Gypsum Board Boarding
For bathrooms, kitchens, and other humid environments, we use green moisture-resistant gypsum boards. This prevents mold and water damage over time. The boards are fastened to the frame using a depth-sensitive drywall screw gun to avoid tearing the protective face paper.
We install a double layer of 12.5mm Knauf moisture-resistant MR boards, complying with Dubai Municipality Building Regulations Circular No. 195 for moisture barriers in wet areas. This moisture protection setup is highly recommended for coastal villas in Jumeirah that face high sea-air humidity year-round.
