did it recently, surprising how warped the boards are, I was grateful I had the aluminium fixings to drive them in and keep everything flat. OH and before doing this I recommend you ‘dot’ little pieces of cement board on the wall get them all level and let them set. That way when youre pushing your boards home youre not guessing how far to push them to keep them level. I used tile cement to set the dots, add a litle cement to it and itll go off quicker or if you have a little lying around use rapid set.
Nice one mate, foam can be tricky used properly can be quick fix 👍👍
This is excellent, it's just what I have been looking for. I want to insulate a garage wall with out the studding
yes, this expanding is enemy but no one will tell you that. without mechanical fixing you cant make this job with foam. thanks for video. Do you can use spray water to speed up expanding?
Hi Stu
Can you also use it to stick the kingspan on pva brick wall then? 🤔
Can i use this foam on painted brick wall? Also does the painted brick need a pva glue layer?
Hi mate, did you bond the pir with foam as well??
Hey stu, you should stick it to the wall before the film is there. Otherwise you won't have optimal bonding to the brick. Wait 5 minutes instead of 10, the foam should become stringy when you touch it and pull away.

Hi there Stu,
Another good video, just wondereing if you could help me out here,
I am about to take a big project on, I am going to insulate all the external walls of my house from the inside, wondering if you think foam is the way to go, as I intend to stick plasterboard insulation over already dot and dabbed walls, although I have searched youtube and cannot find anyone else that has done this, my reason being I live in a modern house (20 years old) with a cavity, but I think alot of the isulation boards in the cavity were missed out or far to thin leading to cold walls and a cold house but no damp and alot of heat loss,
My radiators get bouncing hot but the rooms take a long time to heat up, and then when the rads are turned off the rooms soon lose the heat, my choices are to strip the plasterboards and dabs from the walls and re-dab them the usual way, which is a massive job while living in, or just go over the top with the foam, also while I do each room just wondering if I would benifit from screwing a thin insulated board to the studs and reskim, especially now with the price of energy going up and up any suggestions or advice, cheers.
Hi Green up,
There is an adhesive product we use called AC50 (see link below) it is a general purpose plasterboard adhesive specifically intended for bonding plasterboard. Given that your walls are already lined with plasterboard (dabbed) you can use this adhesive & bond insulated plasterboard directly over the walls. Foam would also be fine to use however you will only require a small bead of adhesive because your walls are already boarded so I would be inclined to use the AC50 as it does not expand & you can apply then stick your boards straight on. Might be worth sealing the walls first with pva just to be safe.

Hope this helps
@@troweltalk2719 yes Stu thanks very much will look into the AC50 I have used the foam before at work on small area's with handy boards but never with big insulation boards. cheers
Do you have any videos on creating a vapour barrier on internal back to brick room?
Hi, I saw either side of the chimney had insulation up did you then glue the plaster board to the insulation? If so did you use the same foam? Thanks Tom
Hi Tom yes you can use builders clear silicone for this or AC50 board adhesive 👍 you could indeed use the megastick but better use clear silicone it grabs really well & can get a tight bond
Great instructional video
Hi pal thank you for all that , just a question you’ve done the video 6 months ago about the waterproof membrane sheet , my question is can we use this foam technique instate the sheet man the fixing takes forever thanks for help
Hi Dana Lak,
The problem with bonding the membrane with Foam is it may obstruct/ fill the cavity at the back of the membrane.
The system is designed to allow for an air pocket behind the membrane.
I would suggest that if you were to do this then small 'dabs spaced out every 8" would be less likely to restrict air movement than applying the foam in a continuous ribbon. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching the channel 👍
@@troweltalk2719 thank you for your reply
Sorry I wasn’t very clear I meant using this system boarding with foam instead the sheet membrane would that work on the dump brick walls thank you for your time
@@danalak4870 Ah got you Yes it would work you would need quite a thick existing plaster line to keep the board flush also the damp issue would need to be resolved beforehand 👍
@@troweltalk2719 thank you so much appreciate it, keep it up we learned allot from you
Hi there Stu, what do you use for a platform when you do high straight stairs. like in council houses. For example, in through front door, stairs straight in front, curve at top. High three walls. I hope this makes sense. You have done vid on stairs and landing but not high stairs with platform. In fact no one seems to have done vids on this. Cheers.
Thanks for watching the channel If domestic we always do off ladders & planks if it's commercial large space we will hire a tower 👍
You should get a ladder on the stairs against the wall then run planks?
Post a photo of the job on the group the lads will help you out

Used dow insta stik yesterday, applied a 25 mm bead all around the board and waited no more than five min before trying to bond it to the wall . The foam skinned over so quickly it just wouldn't stick at all ! The only way I could get the boards to stick was to press them up against the wall immediately after applying the glue . Is this a common problem with foam adhesives ?
Not with megastick. It depends on which brand of adhesive you go for
@@troweltalk2719 used the pink grip foam years ago and I'm sure I had to wait 5 min before sticking the board against the wall . It didn't actually say anything on the back of the tin of insta stik about having to wait so maybe with this product it's not necessary. Thanks for the reply, I'll try the megastick next time 👍
Soudal foams are the same.. you cant spray them on a vertical surface or even near vertical just roll off which is awkward when you dont have anywhere to lay the board flat.
Hi could you use this foam for overboarding? With prop assist
If you are talking about ceilings then no. Ceiling boards must be screw fixed into the joists using suitable size drywall screws.
I have a video on my channel named overboarding lath and plaster ceilings
Can that adhesive be used between fiberglass(filon) and styrofoam or will it dissolve the foam? Thanks
Hi Rick L
We use these adhesives to bond polystyrene backed plasterboard to masonry so my answer would be yes
Great video Stuart. Could you use mushroom fixings or are they just for insulated plasterboard?
Hello big man we could do but would Peirce the vapour barrier so I like to bond them
@@troweltalk2719 aye makes sense mate, I’ve never done anything but float and set all my days.🤙
@@markneeson7162 love the float & set proper Plastering in my eyes pal 💪 this system is fail safe over damp bricks. S+ C systems with waterproofer would also work
Now I’ve seen it done I’ll try it
good insight
Hi Stu can this work on a basement wall, it has been painted in the past and just want to line it?
It would depend on the dampness of the walls.. it could work providing moisture content is minimal meaning you have no moisture/ damp issues within the walls. Membrane + drainage system is the correct way if the walls are damp otherwise it's just masking the issue. Hope this helps
Which gun is it?
Cork is the best insulation if youre ever worried about dampness
Shud I pva the brick first walls abit dusty worried it might not stick
Always 👍
What I dont understand about this is, the silver is to reflect heat into the property. So why do they put it on the outside to reflect heat back outside...surely if heat is coming from the fireplace youde want it to come in?
Hi there,
Thank you for watching the channel Vapour control board is used to stop damp from penetrating through to the plaster hence why it is installed on the back & not the face
Hi can you stick it on a sika slurry wall
I don't see why not as long as the background is fully dry
I thought these boards should not be used on damp walls.
Sir i want this material in india
Pva I'd not waterproof
Helpful but your video is making me seasick.
