MF plasterboard ceilings for Greater Manchester buildings
For shops and retail units in Oldham we programme ceilings around lease and opening dates, doing stockroom grids and shop-floor ceilings in one visit where possible. Office buildings in Manchester range from older blocks with tired grids to floors fitted out for each new tenant. We match tiles where we can and replace the grid where it no longer suits the layout.

Questions people ask
Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?
Yes. We take on MF plasterboard ceilings across Greater Manchester, including Manchester, Salford, Stockport, Bolton, Wigan and Oldham, and nearby areas such as Cheshire, Merseyside and Lancashire.
Can you work around our shop's opening hours in Manchester?
Yes. We can fit overnight or before opening, and phase the work so the shop floor keeps trading.
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.
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.
