Questions people ask
Do you cover all of County Durham?
Yes. We take on MF plasterboard ceilings across County Durham, including Durham, Darlington and Stockton-on-Tees, and nearby areas such as Tyne and Wear, North Yorkshire and Northumberland.
Do you fit ceilings in warehouse offices around Darlington?
Yes. Mezzanine offices, canteens and welfare blocks inside sheds are a regular job, planned around shifts and vehicle movements.
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.
