Solutions. Innovation. Trust.

RWS (Plastering & Drylining) Ltd was established in Rotherham in 2010 and has grown into a specialist interiors contractor trusted by main contractors across the UK. We deliver metal stud partitions, SFS, wall linings, ceiling systems and plastering on commercial, retail, education, healthcare, industrial and residential projects.

We form part of the RWS Interiors group alongside RWS Contracts Ltd, our IFC certificated passive fire protection division. Drylining and fire stopping are managed by one team, giving clients a single point of responsibility for rated walls, ceilings and the penetration seals through them.

Our management team brings over 100 years of combined construction industry experience, and we invest continually in training, equipment and management systems. The health and safety of our operatives, clients and the public comes first: no work proceeds unless it is safe to do so, and every project is delivered to specification and to programme.

What our clients say

I have worked with RWS on many occasions and have always been impressed with their professionalism and ability to complete the job on time. Both Scott and Rob are easily contactable, have a professional attitude and resolve any challenges quickly. I look forward to working with RWS on many future projects.

Contracts Manager · GF Holding

We had RWS on a live school site over the summer break. Partitions and rated ceilings were in and finished before the pupils came back, which is all we asked for.

Claire Hutton, Leeds · School refurbishment

Grid ceilings and linings right through the showroom. Setting out was spot on and the ceiling line is dead level the whole way across the floor.

Mark Ellison, Doncaster · Showroom fit-out

Priced it quickly, turned up when they said they would, and their supervisors actually run the job. We have had RWS back on three projects since.

Steve Naylor, Manchester · Office fit-out
