Types of Plaster Ceilings

Gypsum ceilings are lightweight, fire-resistant, and easy to install. Popular in Singapore for both homes and offices, gypsum plaster ceilings provide smooth finishes and are ideal for false ceiling designs.

Lime plaster is a natural material known for durability and moisture resistance. It’s environmentally friendly and suitable for humid climates like Singapore.

Plaster Ceiling Installation Process
1. Planning & Design
Our team works with clients to determine ceiling height, design preferences, and lighting integration. We consider both aesthetics and functionality.
2. Surface Preparation
We inspect the existing ceiling and prepare surfaces by cleaning, leveling, and patching cracks to ensure the plaster adheres correctly.
3. Material Application
Depending on the chosen plaster type (gypsum, lime, or cement), we apply layers with precision. Gypsum boards or wet plaster is applied evenly for a smooth finish.
4. Drying & Finishing
After application, the plaster is allowed to cure. The surface is then sanded, smoothed, and primed for painting.
5. Painting & Decorative Touches
Our team applies high-quality paints and finishes, ensuring the ceiling complements the interior décor. Decorative cornices or moldings can be added at this stage.
