Enhance your home improvements Strong durable walls

New rooms within this space can benefit from sunlight for much of the day and not only will you make the most of your aerial view, it will add great character to a home.

Just imagine; a new master bedroom with sun streaming in through the skylights; a quiet home office where you can concentrate on your work, or an exciting playroom where your kids can let off steam. The possibilities are endless.

Loft conversions not only provide you with another living space, they can add value to your home.

Ideas to inspire

If you’re planning a loft conversion, British Gypsum can help you get the most out of your project with a range of innovative products.

Walls made with Gyproc Habito are stronger and more user-friendly than standard plasterboard walls, significantly enhancing your loft spaces.

Gyproc Habito offers a superior resistance to everyday bangs, whether it be the kids playing, furniture being moved or just simple wear and tear, you can actually feel how different they are from standard plasterboard walls.

Gyproc Habito features a new board technology that provides more strength than standard plasterboard, with a single fixing capable of supporting up to 15kg.

You can fix shelves, curtain poles, large pictures and TVs into place, without any need for drills or specialist fixings.

Ask your builder or architect to replace standard plasterboard with Gyproc Habito to achieve these benefits.

Everyone would like a bigger home, and a loft conversion is a simple and cost-effective way to achieve more space.

Many loft conversions are built with standard plasterboard facings. However, these can get easily damaged and aren’t particularly strong. Our new plasterboard, Gyproc Habito offers a robust, more durable alternative, letting you screw straight into the wall’s surface.

Silent Floor

Creates noise separation between upstairs and downstairs. This allows the two floors to be zoned i.e. upstairs quiet, downstairs noisy. It is an important consideration when converting lofts as you will be creating a new space typically directly above existing bedrooms.

Silent Wall

Reduces the level of sound between rooms that are adjacent to each other. Please note, any wall featuring a door will not deliver the performance unless the doors performance matches the wall.

Work while they play, sleep while they practise. Design your own sound insulation for everyday living. Developing your home to the required Building Regulations will only meet the minimum standard. However, if you are going to use your home to cope with lots of different activities, the minimum is not enough. Maybe you want to work from home while the kids want to play. Or you like to watch a late-night film while your partner prefers an early night with a good book. We are able to provide wall and floor solutions to substantially enhance your home.

Enhanced acoustic design

Magnetic WallsIf you’re planning on using your loft conversion as a home office or kids’ playroom then our ThistlePro Magnetic plaster can be a great feature. From interactive play boards to a handy noticeboard, you can change your display with the minimum of fuss or mess.

More and more people are working from home; if you want your new loft space to be your home office, our ThistlePro Magnetic plaster can be a real asset. Acting as a giant work board, the plaster helps organise thoughts, showcase presentations and display professional certificates. What’s more, it can be combined with specialist finishes such as whiteboard and blackboard paint for handy working walls.

Create a fun activity space for kids’ bedrooms or playrooms with our ThistlePro Magnetic plaster. They can put up their favourite posters, play games or display their latest artwork with ease. Teenagers can benefit from using the wall as a work space too.
