Perth-wide ceiling repair

Commercial Ceiling Repairs in Perth

Commercial ceilings fail for the same reasons domestic ones do, with the added pressure that the space has to keep trading. We repair and replace plasterboard ceilings, bulkheads and suspended grid tiles in offices, strata common areas, shops, cafes and clinics, and we schedule the noisy, dusty parts for when your customers and staff are not there.

When to call

What you will usually notice first

Stained or sagging grid tiles

Mineral fibre tiles stain from roof or aircon leaks and sag with humidity. Individual tiles are replaced to match; a run of stained tiles usually means a leak that needs finding first.

Cracked bulkheads and plasterboard

Shopfit bulkheads and set plasterboard ceilings crack at joins and corners as the building moves and services vibrate above them.

Damage from other trades

Electricians, data cablers and aircon techs leave holes and lifted tiles behind. We make good so the space is presentable again.

Strata common areas

Lobby, corridor, car park and stairwell ceilings in apartment buildings, where water from the unit above is a regular cause and documentation for the strata manager matters.

Water damage above a tenancy

A leak from a roof, a plant room or a neighbouring tenancy. We assess, document and repair once the source is fixed.

Fit-out and refurbishment

New plasterboard ceilings, bulkheads and grid ceilings for small fit-outs, working with your shopfitter or builder.

How we fix it

The way the job actually gets done

Scheduled around your trading

Early starts or after-hours work can be arranged for retail and hospitality where the site cannot be closed during the day; staged work in occupied offices so one zone is done at a time. Dust is contained and the area is cleaned before you reopen.

Grid ceilings matched, not just patched

Replacement tiles are matched to the existing pattern and edge type where it is still available. Where a tile is discontinued we tell you and offer the closest match or a sensible section replacement rather than a chequerboard.

Plasterboard to a commercial finish

Set plasterboard ceilings and bulkheads are repaired and set to a flat finish that holds up under the harsh downlighting commercial spaces use.

Documentation for managers and insurers

Written reports with photos, itemised quotes and tax invoices that a property manager, strata council or insurer can act on without chasing us for detail.

    Area contained, work done in stages where needed, debris removed.

  5. Clean and hand over

    Space cleaned and presentable for opening, with a completion note for your records.

What it costs depends on

What moves the price, and why some jobs need a look first

Many jobs can be quoted from your photos and a description. Others are a different job once someone is in the roof space, which is when we come and look first. These are the things that move the price for commercial.

FAQ

Commercial: your questions

Can you work outside business hours?
Where a site cannot close during the day, early starts and after-hours work can be arranged and are quoted as part of the job. For offices we usually stage the work so staff can keep working in the zones we are not in.
Do you replace suspended ceiling tiles?
Yes, individual tiles, runs of tiles or the whole grid. We match the existing tile pattern and edge detail wherever it is still made, and tell you up front if it is not.
Do you work for strata companies and property managers?
Regularly. Common-area ceiling repairs, make-safes after leaks, and reports that can be forwarded to owners and insurers are a normal part of our commercial work.
Can you do a small fit-out ceiling?
Yes. New plasterboard ceilings, bulkheads and grid ceilings for small to medium fit-outs, coordinated with your shopfitter, electrician and aircon contractor.
