Plastering boards with different levels.

Basically being lazy and didn want to cut angle on every insulated plasterboard. So I kept straight edge and left a 10mm gap to get expanding foam in. I was thinking with scrim tape the plasterer will be able to skim over tape. But thinking twice now. Will a plasterer be able to plaster with the different sizes

Add more expanding foam and cut it off in line with the face of the plasterboard. A multi tool will cut the foam without tearing lumps out of it.
