Ceiling Installation & Repairs in Adelaide

Ceilings need attention when they sag, crack, suffer water damage, or need replacing during a renovation. A sagging ceiling is also a genuine safety issue. This page covers ceiling repair and installation in Adelaide, including cornice work and suspended ceilings.

Sagging ceilings are a safety issue

A ceiling that is sagging or bowing — often from failed fixings, water damage, or age — can eventually come down, which is dangerous. This is not a job to delay. Repair may involve re-fixing or re-sheeting the affected area and addressing the cause (such as a roof leak above).

Cornice and suspended ceilings

Cornice (the decorative join between wall and ceiling) cracks with house movement and is a common repair. Suspended ceilings (common in commercial and some residential spaces) are a separate system with their own grid and tiles. Both are specialist plastering jobs.
