Ceiling? Plasterboard??

[petersson79]

We installed TakEss everywhere on the ceiling, we think it turned out really well, damn the hassle of working with gypsum that needs to be screwed everywhere and spackled and spackled and painted.
However, I also bought short planks today, going to build a box around V/A and underfloor heating pipes that are installed in the ceiling in the basement bathroom. Easy panels to work with when you're doing something smaller with some tricky parts and an inspection hatch.

Price and place of purchase for that?

I don't remember the price, to avoid searching through my not very well-organized administration, I am attaching a link with the current prices at the first supplier I found.

We bought it at COOP Bygg, which at the time had a promotion with a discount, and we bought Elfa wardrobes at the same time, which were also discounted.

It is tongue and groove chipboard coated with something that looks like roughly rolled paint, you screw into the tongues so the screw heads are not visible; in most of the house, we screwed it directly through the old plasterboard ceiling right up into the furring strips.

I think that huntonit is a good and reasonably cheap ceiling plank....

We have Huntonit Symphony in the basement ceiling... lots of life with structure...

this discussion is old, but I want to add that I regret using plasterboard in the whole house... such a freaking additional work and it never really looks good, after two paint companies it looks okay but will probably crack soon...

In the future, it will be pre-made ceilings...

the carpenter said the same, he has taken down his plasterboard ceilings and replaced them with real ones...

only have one room left now and there it definitely won't be plasterboard..

Did you use battens or steel profiles?
Did you use reinforced plaster compound like Knauf Uniflott?
Did you use joint tape between the ceiling and walls?

It usually depends on the preparation work.
