    Frequently Asked Questions

    Have questions? We’re here to help.

    General

    • Wall and Ceiling Liners apply and fix plasterboard, suspended ceilings, fire rating systems, acoustic tiles and composite wall linings to buildings and apply decorative and protective coverings of plaster, cement and similar materials.

    • You will require a wall and ceiling lining licence in most states across Australia. This ensures that you comply with regulations and standards. For example, in NSW, wall and Ceiling Liners need a licence to perform any residential wall and ceiling lining work, including strata, valued at more than $5000 in labour and materials. Holding a wall and ceiling lining licence also ensures you meet the requirements of any regulating bodies which will avoid you incurring penalties or fines. You can also legally market your services and initiate contracts/tenders, both of which ensure you earn more than unlicensed wall and ceiling liners.

    • To become a licensed wall and ceiling liner, you need to meet the minimum requirements in your state. For example, in NSW, here are the steps to becoming a licensed wall and ceiling liner:

      1. Complete a wall and ceiling lining qualification with Qualify Me.
      2. Undertake construction induction training and obtain a White Card.
      3. Apply to Fair Trading NSW for your wall and ceiling lining licence.
