🔨 The Different Stages of a Ceiling Repair!
At Bourne To Plaster, we believe a quality repair starts with the right preparation. Here's a step-by-step look at how we professionally repair a damaged plasterboard ceiling.
1️⃣ Removal & Preparation
Carefully cut away the damaged plasterboard, squaring off the affected areas to create clean, straight edges. Any remaining nails or fixings are removed from the exposed ceiling joists.
2️⃣ Additional Timber Supports
Where required, new timber supports are installed to provide a solid fixing point and ensure the replacement plasterboard is properly secured.
3️⃣ New Plasterboard Installation
New plasterboard is cut to size and securely fixed into position. All joints are reinforced with scrim tape to help minimise the risk of cracking.
4️⃣ Plastering & Finishing
The repaired areas are professionally skimmed to a smooth finish, carefully feathering the new plaster into the existing ceiling for a seamless transition, ready for decorating once fully dry.
✅ Proper preparation. Solid repairs. Quality finishes.
