Hello,

All the partition (non supporting) walls in my house are built of
breeze block directly onto the floorboards. In some cases not even
directly onto joists.

I am thinking of dot'n'dabbing one of these walls but I am a bit
worried about the extra weight this will give the wall.

The breeze blocks are made of that nasty black ash type stuff so light
weight blocks.

How can I determine if adding plasterboard & adhesize to these walls
will be safe?

Thanks,

Graham

It is. The extra weight's trivial compared to what even a badly
designed house can support.
