Older Homes
- Fibre-cement boards in older buildings can contain asbestos. Do not break or sand suspect boards; asbestos work needs a registered contractor.
- Older ceilings may have loose brandering, sagging boards or several layers of paint. Repairs can turn into partial replacement once boards come down.
- Matching an old cornice profile or a textured finish takes more time than a modern flat ceiling.
Shops, Offices and Rentals
- Stained suspended ceiling tiles usually mean a leak above. Fix it, then replace the tiles.
- Landlords and building managers usually need to approve ceiling work first.
- Business premises often need work after hours or over weekends. See commercial ceilings.
Sagging or bulging ceiling? Keep people and furniture clear of it, do not push or pierce it, and do not use light fittings in a wet ceiling. Switch off that circuit at the distribution board if it is safe to reach. Then arrange a professional assessment.
