Retail units around Chesterfield usually need a fast turnaround, so we can work overnight in centres and on high streets to keep disruption to trading low. Chesterfield has plenty of older buildings, where a new ceiling has to work around window heads and existing features, and where an asbestos survey is needed before stripping out anything installed before 2000.

Questions people ask
Do you cover all of Derbyshire?
Yes. We take on MF plasterboard ceilings across Derbyshire, including Derby and Chesterfield, and nearby areas such as Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire and Staffordshire.
Can you work around our shop's opening hours in Chesterfield?
Yes. We can fit overnight or before opening, and phase the work so the shop floor keeps trading.
Can an MF ceiling be fire-rated?
Yes, using fire-resisting board in a tested build-up. The rating comes from the whole system as tested, so we follow the board maker's specification exactly.
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.
