Q:on the ceiling of an ensuite in our house, the paint is all starting to crack and peel and flake off. I have been given the task of scraping it all off with a metal scraper and it is really tedious and is taking ages to do it. This happened before, so we were told to paint a primer first adn then paint over it with normal paint. It didn't work. Like I said, the wall is a plasterboard, is there anyway to easily strip off the paint? and how can we stop this happening again?

It could be a water problem above, When paint starts to peel on plaster it will start checking or cracking, this is because the paint is loosing it's adhesion to the plaster, when the plaster gets wet it gose back to when it was applied, the paint will peel when the plaster drys out, The plaster ceiling could be getting wet from a bathroom above or a roof leak. This type of damage can be repaired, as for peeling the paint Home Depot has T handle razor wallpaper strippers in the Paint Dept. that work great at removing paint failures from ceiling and walls. On my site I have pictures of peeling paint, also plaster repairs.

Q:H guys,Looking to mount an LCD onto a wall but wondering the best way to identify what material the wall is? Are there easy way to test?Thanks in advance!!

the age of the home should tell you that. If its an older home you'll mostly likely have lath and plaster, if its newer .. it'll definitely be drywall. The best way to be certain is to take off a wall switch and inspect the walls them self. You can usually look at a corner inside a wall switch. Btw, if you hand the anchors for the lcd tv into studs it wont matter what kind of walls you got. Use a stud finder.

plasterboards (AKA drywall, sheetrock) are not very strong, definitely not strong enough to hold kitchen cabinets by themselves. be sure that when you hang things like cabinets, shelves, etc from the wall that they are anchored to the studs and the frame of the house or else they will just tear out.
