My wife and I did all the ceilings in our bungalow like this. Made 2 "Dead Men" (length of 3 x 2 timber with a piece screwed 90 degrees across the end to make a "T"). Used these to support each end of the 8 x 4 foot sheets when placing against the ceiling. Used full boards first staggering them, then filled in with smaller pieces. Did 8 ceilings in all.

Great job boys, this is exactly how we do it. A little tip we do is mark the back of the level at 300 centres so when you draw your straight line you can flick a mark at 300 with the marks on the level, saves the tape coming out again. 😉👍

I'm remodeling a 70 year old house that has moderate water damage in a couple of the smaller rooms and mild watermarks in a couple of other rooms. We have installed a new roof, but most of the water damage is quite old and hasn't been wet, recently. The parts that had been wet haven't been wet in months. I had already planned to patch the damaged portions and then install a new layer over the entire ceiling in these rooms. It's nice to see that I'm not the only one that doesn't want to just rip the whole ceiling down!

If you have a bit of a bow in the ceiling depending on how much it's bowing I find putting an off cut between the old ceiling and the new board you're fitting normally sorts the wobble. Thanks for all your videos guys I'm learning so much, all very professional! 🙂

I've read you can't overboard a plaster and lathe ceiling because the old plaster might fall down and make the new plasterboard sag. But if my plaster ceiling is holding firm to the lathe, it seems like I can just over board it, right? No need for furring strips or anything like that? (The original playset ceiling seems structurally fine, it's just ugly because of slight cracking and tons of nail holes from where a decorative drop ceiling used to be hung)

If you are in any doubt about carrying out the work yourself, please get a professional to have a look. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊

@BuildWithAE
@BuildWithAE 4 жыл бұрын
Hi bobby midden, Either square or tapered edge board is fine to use. Tapered edge is mainly for dry lining applications, to allow jointing compound to be applied and sanded in. However, if you do use tapered edge, it's always a good idea to start by applying some skim into the tapers to bring them level with the rest of the board. With regards to the artex, it should be fine to board straight over. If it is a very heavy / deep pattern, then it might be an idea to give it a light scrape first. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊

Then if board edges meet on a joist they have screwed close to the edges of the board which to me seems weak. I understand what you mean as regards putting a 2x2 either side of the joist but surely that means smashing the board out either side to get it in all over the ceiling. Cheers

@BuildWithAE
@BuildWithAE 4 жыл бұрын
Personally I would make sure the boards are butted together. If you leave a gap and fill it with plaster, you're relying on the strength of the plaster alone, whereas if the boards are together you have the strength of the board as well. So long as the boards are fixed to a solid substrate, and all the joints are taped, there shouldn't be any cracking. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊

Hi Oliver, If the ceiling isn't tied into the walls then there will always be a risk of cracking. The best way to reduce the risk is to ensure that the boards are securely fixed prior to plastering.

Overboarding would be a quicker and cleaner option than ripping the old one down. However, you need to be sure there are no cables or pipes running low through the joists. 99% of the time they will be running through the centre of the joists, but you should always proceed with caution to ensure a screw doesn't end up causing damage.

It does help, but there are many variables to consider when trying to reduce sound transfer. The best solution would be to take down the existing plasterboard, insulate between joists and then board the ceiling with acoustic board. There are sound proofing fixings which can be used to secure the plasterboard. These reduce vibration transfer, which is the main cause of noise. Hope this helps. All the best, John 👷🏼‍♂️

Hi D S, When plasterboarding a ceiling, you should always install them across the joists, with staggered joints. This helps to reduce the risk of cracking, should there be any movement in a joist. If you know where the joints of the old boards are, then I would aim to get the joints of the new boards on different joists. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊

Were the rafters not spaced evenly? Otherwise why not find one and put measurement marks across instead of cutting all of those holes? Overall great video.

Hi Cali818 thanks for watching, make sure the ceiling you are going to overboard is in sound condition no loose plaster, if so take the board off and start a fresh, and level ceiling if required. If everything is good overboard as normal and then use bonding to take out unevenness. Thanks Tony

I usually find the joists run along the shorter span of the room. These ones seem to be the opposite.

Hi Imran, They did run across the shortest length. The wall which the boards were lent against is a stud and not a supporting wall. Hope this helps. All the best, John 😊

Hey depending on we’re you live in the country it can vary. Top Plasters are expensive, plus they will have an apprentice with them or it could be two plasters, depends on the company and how they are set up. I would suggest getting a couple of quotes and go and look at there work. Thanks Tony

Good video but its important that the screw heads don't go through the paper, manufacturers warranty is viod if the screw head penetrate the paper.

@@a5amr2 Regardless of warranty, there is nearly zero holding strength if your screw head goes through the paper. If using a regular drill (i.e. not a dedicated drywall screw gun), you can use a drywall screw setter bit. They're designed to disengage the screw at the correct depth.
