The ceiling of plasterboard in the hall how to do?

At the moment, the decoration of the ceiling surface is quite varied. There are modern finishing materials that are used during the works. Despite this, the ceiling made of plasterboard in the hall is very popular. This material not only makes it possible to make the surface perfectly smooth, but also create real masterpieces on the ceiling.

Types of plasterboard for the ceiling

Drywall is a material that can be used in finishing works. If previously its range of applications was limited only to the leveling of wall surfaces, today, thanks to its large assortment, it is possible to create suspended ceilings. Examples of decorating ceilings from plasterboard in the hall are quite unique and presented in the photo, placed in the article. But, in principle, it all depends on the imagination of the designer.

There are several types of drywall that are used in creating a false ceiling:

• Ceiling;
• perforated;
• arched.

These species have proved themselves already in repair work. They have different technical properties and characteristics. Also conventionally, the material can be divided into:

• Moisture resistant;
• Fireproof.

Drywall for a ceiling can be of both kinds.

Material Advantages

Ceiling gypsum board has a number of characteristics. It is they who distinguish it among other finishing materials. The ceiling of plasterboard in the hall, as already mentioned earlier, can be of different kinds. And it does not depend on the type of material.

Any ceiling gypsum board:

• lasting;
• reliable;
• Easy to install;
• Easily cut;
• Withstands any loads.

The dimensions of the material can be varied.

Council. When choosing the parameters of plasterboard sheets it is necessary to take into account the dimensions of the room itself.

Advantages of gypsum board ceiling

The ceiling of plasterboard in the hall has excellent characteristics. They are similar to the properties of the material itself. It is also worth noting that the suspended gypsum plasterboard ceiling can be freely combined with other finishing materials for the ceiling surface. For example, the design of ceilings from gipsokartona in a hall in a combination to tension constructions, and as fabric, and film are rather interestingly looks.

Important. You can make the design of the ceiling of the hall from plasterboard yourself. Then it's easy to mount it on the ceiling surface with your own hands.

Types of suspended plasterboard ceiling

The ceiling of plasterboard in the hall can be:

• Single-level;
• Two-level;
• Multilevel.

Choosing one of the proposed options, you can create truly unique ceilings from plasterboard. The gallery of the hall with such constructions, presented on many relevant resources, is so diverse that it will be necessary to think hard before finding a suitable construction for yourself.

Characteristics of single-level gypsum plasterboard ceilings

One-level ceilings from plasterboard are the simplest designs. They are manufactured in a flat plane and serve only to level the ceiling surface. Provide the ability to install a variety of lighting products.

Council. If there is a desire to make a single-level ceiling original in lighting, then the wiring for such purposes is laid initially, even before the installation of the ceiling structure.

Characteristics of two-level gypsum plasterboard ceilings

Such suspended ceilings from gypsum plasterboard (the hall, by the way, - the premise that is most suitable for their installation) are more complex constructions. In them, the material is on two levels, the first of which is basic, and the second serves to decorate the ceiling surface.

Due to the fact that drywall can freely take any forms, on the first level it is possible to create rounded, square, rectangular and other structures. Not bypassed decorative lighting and this type of ceiling surface. With its help, two-level ceilings help visually divide the space into functional areas.

Multilevel surfaces

In this case, it is worth noting that not only plasterboard is involved in the manufacture of the ceiling. This can be a rough concrete ceiling, which serves as the basis for the ceiling construction. On its surface in some places, sheets of plasterboard are mounted. They are already fixed to the suspended ceilings or other sheets of material, which create its subsequent levels.

Council. When choosing this type of ceiling surface, you need to immediately consider the design. And only then be determined with the choice of materials.

Multi-level ceilings from gypsum board (the photo gallery of the hall, mentioned above, will help to decide the choice) allow you to decorate the room in an unusual stylistic direction.

Important. Ceiling suspended from gypsum cardboard is suitable for almost any room. Only here there are nuances.

Where it is impossible to do?

Of course, everything will depend on whether the moisture-proof type of material or not. But professionals recommend not to use this type of ceiling surface in rooms with high humidity. Especially if the structure on the ceiling is unreliably protected by finishing materials.

With what materials is the finish of plasterboard sheets made?

The paint is applied to finish the plasterboard surface. It is best if it is water-based or acrylic.

Council. In damp areas use acrylic beauty, which has a dense structure after drying.

Also, the ceiling can be pasted or plastered with a decorative tool. In this issue, everyone is already oriented not only to their financial condition, but also to the overall interior design.

What should I do before installing a drywall ceiling?

Many want to mount ceilings from plasterboard in the hall. How to make this design correctly, not everyone knows. Let's briefly describe the main stages. Initially, the preparatory work should be carried out. They include:

• Preparation and cleaning of the surface from the old finishing material;
• Selection of profiles for the installation of drywall sheets;
• Accurate calculation of material for the manufacture of ceiling construction.

Preparatory work for the installation of a false ceiling

Initially, the surface must be cleaned of the old finish:

• Plaster is removed with the help of a special tool;
• Whitewash - washed out;
• Wallpaper is removed with a spatula.

Council. These measures are necessary in order to make a quality suspended ceiling structure. Otherwise, the old finish may eventually crumble.

Then the surface is washed out with a soap solution, after which it must dry out. Then it can be primed with a special agent.

How to calculate the required amount of material for a gypsum board ceiling?

When calculating drywall sheets, the square of the room and the size of the material itself are taken into account. For example, the area of the room is 18 squares. Plasterboard sheets have a size of 1.25x1 m. Accordingly, the room will need about 15 sheets of material. The number of profiles is calculated based on the length and width of the room. It is also necessary to know whether the ceiling will have a second and third level.

Installation of plasterboard ceiling

In these works there is nothing complicated. To execute them you will need:

• Drywall sheets;
• stationery knife;
• Profiles;
• Self-tapping screws with wide hats;
• level;
• Pencil and ruler;
• Dowels;
• Screwdriver;
• Punch.

Initially, a zero point for mounting the profiles is determined in the room using a construction level or plumb bob. All this is necessary for the reason that the structure does not always have the same parameters of walls and ceilings. This will make it possible to make the ceiling plane perfectly even.

Further on the established marks the profiles are fixed. This can be done with a perforator and dowels. Formed on the surface of a kind of metal profile frame, the width of the cells which should not exceed 50 cm. It is already mounted on it and sheets of drywall, which can easily be cut with a simple knife if necessary .

Council. In these works, you must be extremely careful with the material. Inside it there is a gypsum layer, which in case of impact will be deformed.

Rough finish of plasterboard ceiling

Such work is also beyond the power of even a professional. The joints of sheets on the surface of the frame from the profiles are treated with plaster or putty. After it dries, you need to go through these places with sandpaper to remove the unevenness of the solution.

After that, the surface of the gypsum board is primed, then the finishing is done.
