Cracked, sagging or stained ceilings are one of the most common jobs in Glasgow's tenements and older homes. Whether it needs a skim, a patch repair or new plasterboard, Cee leaves a smooth, flat ceiling ready to paint. Based in Bearsden, over 20 years' experience, every job done himself.
Tired, uneven or patched ceilings skimmed flat and smooth, ready for paint.
Cracks and damaged areas cut back, taped and filled, then blended into the rest of the ceiling.
Repairs to traditional lath and plaster in tenements and older homes, or over-boarding where the old ceiling is too far gone.

Often, yes. Hairline and settlement cracks can usually be cut out, taped and skimmed. If the ceiling is sagging, loose or badly water-damaged, replacing or over-boarding that section is the longer-lasting fix.
It depends how far the damage has spread. If the board or plaster is still firm once dry, a patch and skim is usually enough. If it's bulging, soft or has come down, that section needs new board. Cee will tell you which after seeing photos or the ceiling itself.
Yes. Small areas can be repaired in place. Where a lot of the ceiling is loose, the usual fix is to over-board with new plasterboard and skim, which avoids the mess of pulling the old ceiling down.
A standard room ceiling is usually skimmed in a day. Re-boarding adds time. You'll get a timescale with your free quote. Call 07513 387356 or send photos on WhatsApp.
