What's involved
Our Expert Process
A ceiling replacement involves ensuring the entire structure is sound, safe, and visually consistent. We'll begin by carefully removing damaged sections, assessing framework integrity, and installing new boards with attention to alignment. Once secure, our team will set, sand and prepare joints for painting, leaving a smooth, even surface that enhances the room’s look and longevity.
This service is especially valuable for ceilings that have suffered long-term water damage, repeated cracking, or structural movement. By replacing the entire surface, future problems are minimised, and your ceiling is renewed with strength and style.
When your ceiling has reached the point where repairs are no longer enough, replacement is the clear solution. Get in touch to discuss your options.
FAQ
Everything You Need To Know
What are the signs I need a ceiling replacement?
Common signs you need a ceiling replacement include large cracks spreading across the surface, sagging or bowing plasterboard, or recurring water stains. In these cases, replacement ensures long-term stability and a clean finish.
How long does a ceiling replacement take?
The time required for a ceiling replacement depends on the room size, the condition of the framework, and the complexity of the job. For an average room, replacement may take a few days, including installation, setting, sanding, and preparation for painting.
Can I replace only part of a damaged ceiling?
In some cases, partial ceiling replacement is possible if damage is confined to a small area. However, if structural issues or widespread water damage are present, full replacement is usually recommended to avoid future repairs and inconsistencies.
