What is a Ceiling?
A ceiling is the upper surface that covers a room, forming the underside of the roof or the floor above. It acts as a barrier between floors, helps conceal structural elements, wiring, and plumbing, and contributes to insulation, acoustics, and aesthetics within a space.
How is a Ceiling Made?
The ceiling installation process typically involves several steps:
1. Framing: The first step is building a framework, often made of wooden or metal joists, attached to the room’s walls and supported by beams.
2. Insulation: For soundproofing and energy efficiency, insulation may be added between joists, especially for ceilings between floors.
3. Drywall or Plasterboard Installation: Large sheets of drywall or plasterboard are attached to the framework, forming the ceiling’s flat surface.
4. Finishing: The joints are taped, plastered, and sanded smooth to create a seamless finish. Decorative elements like moldings, panels, or paint may be applied based on the design.
5. Lighting and Ventilation: Fixtures, fans, and vents are cut into the ceiling, then installed and wired as needed.
6. Painting or Decorating: Finally, the ceiling is painted, textured, or otherwise decorated to complete the look.

Here are some common types of ceilings, each with unique qualities suited for various spaces and design styles:
1. Conventional Ceiling: Flat ceilings commonly found in most homes, typically 8-9 feet high. They provide a clean and classic look, ideal for any room.
2. Drop or Suspended Ceiling: A grid system used mainly in offices and basements, with tiles that are easy to install and remove for access to wiring or pipes above. It also helps with soundproofing.
3. Coffered Ceiling: A grid of sunken panels that adds elegance and depth, often used in living rooms, dining rooms, or offices for a more sophisticated look.
4. Tray Ceiling: The center section is raised or recessed, creating a layered effect. It can add height and style, especially in bedrooms and dining rooms.
5. Vaulted Ceiling: An arched ceiling that follows the roof’s shape, adding height and openness to a room, commonly used in living rooms and open-plan spaces.
6. Cathedral Ceiling: Similar to vaulted ceilings, but with steep slopes meeting at a central ridge, giving a grand, open feel to spaces like great rooms or entryways.
7. Beam Ceiling: Exposed structural or decorative beams add a rustic or industrial charm, often used in living rooms, kitchens, and open-plan spaces.
8. Cove Ceiling: Features curved edges where the ceiling meets the walls, creating a soft transition and a feeling of height. It’s often used in living rooms or dining areas.
9. Plasterboard or Drywall Ceiling: A flat ceiling made from plasterboard, often used for smooth, clean finishes in most residential and commercial properties.
10. Wood Panel Ceiling: Panels made of wood or faux wood add warmth and texture, often used in living rooms, dens, or traditional-style homes.
11. Metal Ceiling: Tin or aluminum panels add a vintage, industrial feel and are resistant to moisture, making them suitable for kitchens and bathrooms.
12. Acoustic Ceiling: Designed to absorb sound, often installed in offices, conference rooms, and theaters to reduce noise levels.
We have the experience to install each and every one of these ceiling types in Cape Town. Each ceiling type offers unique aesthetic and functional benefits, and choosing the right one depends on your space’s design goals, functionality needs, and overall architectural style.
What is Drywall?
Drywall, also known as plasterboard or gypsum board, is a construction material used to create interior walls and ceilings. It consists of gypsum sandwiched between two thick sheets of paper and is widely favored for its smooth surface, durability, and ease of installation.
Why Opt to Install Drywall?
Drywall is a preferred choice for modern interiors due to its ease of installation, versatility, and cost-effectiveness. It’s a go-to material for creating partitions, ceilings, and feature walls quickly without the need for more labor-intensive traditional plastering. Drywall can also be customized for additional purposes, such as soundproofing and fire resistance.
Benefits of Using Drywall:
Why Hire TM Projects for Drywall Installation?
Drywall is easy to cut, shape, and install, allowing for quicker project completion than traditional plaster.
Drywall offers excellent value for money and is affordable compared to other wall materials.
It provides a clean, flat surface that can be painted, textured, or wallpapered, creating a polished look for interiors.
Drywall contains gypsum, which is naturally fire-resistant, providing extra protection for walls and ceilings.
When paired with proper insulation, drywall can effectively reduce sound transmission between rooms, enhancing privacy.
Drywall, especially with added insulation, can improve a building’s thermal efficiency, helping maintain indoor temperature and reduce energy costs.
Drywall is suitable for both walls and ceilings and can be used in various building types, from residential to commercial spaces.
