Common Areas of Sagging Ceilings

Sagging ceiling repairs are a common request for our Brisbane customers.  Most commonly it is the centre of the ceiling that starts to droop first as the cornices help to support the edges of the ceiling, keeping them in place. 

The most commonly affected rooms of any house include the garage, the master bedroom and the lounge/living areas. This is because the surface area of these rooms is often larger, placing more strain on the glue and screws to do their job of keeping the plaster firmly in place.

The garage also gets much hotter than other rooms in the house, due to less airflow and insulation, meaning the glue must work harder to keep the plaster in place.

SAGGING CEILINGS

Common Causes

Humidity

Brisbane’s high humidity softens the glue that is used to keep the ceiling plaster fixed in place.  As the humidity rises, the glue softens and its bond weakens.  This places increased pressure on the screws, as gravity pulls the plaster downwards. If the short-cuts below have been taken by the previous plasterer, this can cause your ceiling to sag.

Short-cuts and low-quality materials

If a cheaper glue has been used by the original builder (or previous plaster repairer), the plaster is going to come unstuck sooner.  Likewise, if a tradesman has chosen to cut costs by not using enough glue when hanging your ceiling, then in time your ceiling will begin to sag.

Smaller screws (or if nails have been used instead of screws) may also contribute to ceiling sag.  This is because the screws are not strong enough to withstand the pull of the plaster, once the glue begins to soften.

We are proud of the fact that Just Plaster Repairs have NEVER been called back after completing a ceiling repair job.

WHY CALL JUST PLASTER REPAIRS?

We Can Fix Your Sagging Ceiling

Just Plaster Repairs are specialist when it comes to sagging ceiling repairs.  We will have your sagging ceiling firmly back in place, flat and straight – usually within 1 day, weather permitting. Wet conditions can mean a slightly longer timeframe due to slower drying times.

Why is Just Plaster Repairs Brisbane’s best at sagging ceiling repairs?  Top quality, high standards and decades of experience.

Whilst we can’t control the humidity, we can control the quantity and quality of the materials we use.

TOP-QUALITY GLUE

At Just Plaster Repairs we only use the correct amount – and highest quality – glue in all our plaster repairs. This glue delivers the strongest bond possible for your plaster, helping it to withstand Brisbane’s sub-tropical climate + humidity levels. In fact, we are the only plasterer in Brisbane that we are aware of using this standard of glue.

SCREWS + SPACING

We combine our top-quality glue with strong, high-quality screws – along with a focus on optimal spacing. For example, Ray and Jack insist on placing screws every 20cm for maximum impact while most builders will only place a screw (or worse, nail) every 60cm.

UNIQUE METHOD

Another point of difference in our process is the way we jack up the ceiling to ensure you get a finish that is nice and flat. Ask Ray about it and he can tell you why this unique method will deliver the best possible result for your ceiling.
