Questions people ask
Do you cover all of Bristol?
Yes. We take on MF plasterboard ceilings across Bristol, including Bristol, and nearby areas such as Somerset, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire.
Can you fit a ceiling in an occupied office in Bristol?
Yes. We work evenings and weekends, sheet and move furniture section by section, and leave each area usable for the next morning.
Is an MF ceiling better than a grid ceiling?
Neither is better; they do different jobs. Grid ceilings are cheaper and keep the void accessible. MF looks cleaner and can be fire-rated, but you need access panels to reach anything above it.
How long before an MF ceiling can be painted?
Once jointing compound or skim is fully dry. That is usually a few days, depending on temperature and ventilation.
