How to hem ceiling gypsum panels
Finishing the ceiling always brings a lot of problems, so the owners are trying to choose the most simple ways of bringing the rough grounds in order. If you want to ensure the highest flat surface, you can use plasterboard panels. They are endowed with good stiffness, form almost perfectly smooth base for finishing. But it is necessary to follow the recommendations of experts.
1. Preparing to Install Drywall
We can say that in this case the owner must create a false ceiling made of plasterboard. Because of this, serious training before the main work is not necessary. It is only necessary to remove the pollution ceiling, as well as get rid of the crumbling plaster. Then applied around the perimeter marking, which indicates to what is necessary to lower the height of the ceiling. This markup is called "zero level".
2. Mounting frame for plasterboard
There are various methods of setting the frame. The owner can use special hangers, although in most cases it is possible to manage and simple bars. If only they had enough thickness to lower the ceiling to the desired height.
If there is no purpose to lower the ceiling level, it is better to take the bars just 5 cm thick. For greater rigidity of the frame begin to gather to install trim on the perimeter of the room. Next, attach the beams across the room, leaving a distance of 80 cm between them. The smaller the step is, the harder and more reliably obtained by plating.
3. Fastening drywall to the frame
To frame construction drywall screws to attach. Moreover, it must grab all the bars of the carcass structure, which adjoins the panel. It is desirable to have the panels vrazbezhku. If you mount a sheet of plain rows, there are too many intersecting seams between them. Post plasterboard panels back to back to each other is not necessary. Suffice it to leave a distance of about 2-3 mm.
4. Shpatlevanie plasterboard ceiling
Apply sealer to the entire area of the drywall is not necessary. It is placed only in the remaining gaps between the sheets. Sealers need a little. It lay in the seam and carefully smooth. Before the start of the finishing finishing activities will only treat the surface of the ground.
Of course, this procedure requires certain skills from the owner. But, as experience shows, alone with this task quite possible to cope.
