Thick plasterboard wall?

[rick]

Not stricly an electrical question so apologies if this is the wrong place to ask...

Has anyone ever come accross a dividing wall which appears to be solid/thick plasterboard? Drilling in for fixing trying to feel for the cavity and drill bit emerged in room next door. Wall seems to be plasterboard like substance around 2-2.5" thick.

I've not come accross anything like it before, interested to know if anyone else has.

Thanks

My old house was like that, built in the late 80's 2 pieces of plasterboard stuck together that was it. No stud. You could hear everything through all the walls and could only have sockets on the party walls

Uhhh? How was it supported then? You cant have 2 pieces of plasterboard just stuck together with no support FFS???

I dunno, I reckon Barratts would have a good go at it given half a chance!

Barratts would have used it for the outside walls mate!!
