Ceilings put right, without bringing the house down
A ceiling that is cracked, sagging or covered in artex can usually be overboarded and skimmed rather than taken down.

We check the ceiling and the joists first. If the old plaster is firmly fixed, we overboard it with plasterboard screwed into the joists, tape the joints and skim it, which keeps the dust down. If lath and plaster has come away from the laths, we take it down safely, sheeting the room and the doorways first.
We test artex in older houses before disturbing it, because some textured coatings applied before 2000 contain asbestos. If it does, we overboard rather than scrape it.

Do I need to move out of the room?
Please clear as much as you can. We sheet anything that stays and seal the doorway.
My ceiling has a long crack. Is it dangerous?
Usually not, but a sagging ceiling or one that moves when pressed should be looked at quickly. Send us a photograph and we will tell you.
