Stretch ceilings. Advantages and disadvantages

Stretch ceilings are now quite popular and a few reasons for this:

Simple and quick installation. Stretch ceilings are mounted for one day and without the removal of furniture from the room.

The surface of the ceiling is completely flat. The choice of color or ceiling pattern is limited only by your imagination.

The suspension ceiling does not greatly reduce the height of the room, it is installed in a few centimeters (6 — 7 cm) from the plane of the main ceiling. This advantage is very relevant in modern apartments.

The ability to save the interior of the apartment and the ceiling itself if you are flooded with neighbors from the upper floors. If such a nuisance occurred, then it will be necessary to dismantle only part of the stretch ceiling and drain the water into a pre -prepared container.

Stretch ceilings, like any other material, except for advantages, have some disadvantages:

Stretch ceilings require careful handling, t. To. are easily subjected to various mechanical damage.

After the installation of a stretch ceiling, there is no way to attach an additional cornice or lamp to it. Because of this, lighting devices should be determined in advance, they must be purchased even before the installation of the ceiling, otherwise the workers setting the ceiling will leave holes in it under the lamps, and they will have to install them on their own.
