Create a two-level ceiling of plasterboard

Now, many apartment owners prefer to hire professionals, and create a two-level ceiling of plasterboard with their hands.

This design can be installed in the living room, hallway, bedroom and even the kitchen.

to a large living room, for example, plasterboard extremely relevant, since it can be used to divide the space into separate zones.

in the hall such a ceiling would also look very appropriate, since it can be used to create an original interior.

In the kitchen two-tier structure is used no less frequently, giving the room, comfort and warmth.

The photo below shows the appearance of these ceilings in the entrance hall, living room and kitchen.

In addition, using the ceiling plasterboardyou can cover different surface roughness.The room and hallway, as a rule, wiring and a variety of communication, and in the kitchen pipes and ducts.

Sometimes gypsum board covered with a special film, thereby creating a two-tier suspended ceiling.

Stretch ceiling has glossy effect and looks gorgeous in the living room or hallway (in the kitchen it is made quite rare).The picture below shows a variety of drywall ceilings.

itself drywall flexible enough and easilytreatable.It can be easy to bend or cut into desired lengths, while it can take many forms.

This characteristic of the material makes it possible to experiment with design and implement even the most daring ideas.

As you can see, the advantages of quite a lot, butsome disadvantages of this design?Let's examine them in more detail, to see what problems can arise in the construction of such a structure.

Cons ceiling plasterboard

Ceilingsin which drywall is made up of 2 levels, have certain disadvantages:

  • design "eats" at least 18-20 cm from the height of the room.Of course, if your apartment has high ceilings, a large role is not to play, but if housing does not differ a great height, the drywall is not recommended in 2 levels (alternatively, you can make a one-tier structure);
  • Difficulties in installation design.Such a system can be made with your own hands, but in the course of work you will encounter some difficulties.The main problem lies in cutting the drywall.By itself, the material is cut easily, but hold cutting just below the desired size is difficult.For this process requires some tools with which professionals work mostly.

The picture below shows how to produce the cut material with the use of special tools.

cutting drywall

After cutting the sheets to collect and frame to make installation of the material will not be difficult, the work can easily be carried out by hand.

And now let's try to make the installation of a two-tier structure of the drywall without the involvement of specialists.

structure design and preparation of drawings

First we need to decide on the design of the ceiling, draw a scheme of the future design and prepare a special pattern.

The surface material can be straight, wavy or rounded.Also at this stage it is necessary to decide what is the optimal height of the plasterboard for you.

You can use ready-made design projects, but you can come up with the whole design itself.The photo shows a variant of the finished design project.

Drawing of the ceiling plasterboard

If the ceiling surface is sufficiently smooth, the installation of drywall can be close to her.If the surface has small irregularities, it is better to make a small gap.

Mounting tier suspended structure is made at a distance of 10-15 cm (if the room height allows, then the design of the project can be done with a large distance between levels).

Once options Ceiling design projects hallway, living room or kitchen ready, you can proceed directly to the measurements and drawings of gypsum boards.

This work is simple:

  • on drywall need to draw the borders of the future structure;
  • apply markup suspensions mounts;
  • schedule, which will be installed lamps and other decorative elements, which includes the design project.

markings made with a ruler and pencil.If necessary, a conventional mop line eraser.The photo below shows this stage of plasterboard work.

Layout ceiling

Cooking base

Take a meter or two-meter bubble level, and check the surface of the base of the ceiling for the presence of irregularities.We use the grid in increments of 50 cm.

First of all check the length of the room, and then audit the width.If detected obvious surface differences, they need to putty.

If the old plaster, then it must be removed down to the floors, and then apply the primer with high penetration.

If you plan to close the entire surface of the plasterboard ceiling, then putty does not need anything, in this case, the installation can be done on the bare surface.

If drywall will partially cover the ceiling, it is best to putty the entire surface of the base ceiling, rather than the open part.

This is due to the fact that a partial coating can make the surface of the drywall short-lived, as the material is hygroscopic and closed plenums increases the effects of moisture vapor.

Erect frame

Duplex plasterboard mounted on a special metal frame.

If the design project is designed for small facilities (for example, if the ceiling is in the small kitchen or hallway), then, as a rule, uses a simple framework.

If the surface area is large, it requires additional fixing.

for the future contours of the ceiling using guiding profiles.To make the line smooth, rounded it, or create a bend, the profile slightly incised and bent it in the right place.

frame is attached, starting from the bottom of the ceiling level.Thus it is necessary to connect the curved profiles with reinforcing ribs.

Next frame is mounted on the standard:

  • To start fasten the guide level.In the pre-laid profile drill holes at regular intervals and trying to drive them dowels;
  • Next fix the design, using screws (you need to drive them all the way into the plugs);
  • Do not forget to check the levels of sagging slats, stretched by using markup cord;
  • Spending mount rack profile with a pitch of about 50-60 cm. Then additionally fix them using horizontal hangers every 40-45 cm.

frame attach important so that it does not falter and all its components sit tight.

If the frame is to walk, it will not lay down material sheets as necessary, and the shape of the ceiling will not like to design the project.The video below shows the mounting process of the frame.

Installation of drywall sheets

After the carcass assembly is completed, the cavity is filled with an insulating material, fiberglass or foam sheets and lay wires for lighting.

sheets easier to yield to bend, professionals advise a little sprinkle them with water spray.

Mounts sheets produce screws, on which there is a fine thread.Self twist to the base, using a screwdriver (preferably hat has been slightly recessed into the material).

Clamps should be made at the same distance from each other, approximately every 15 cm.

better to take a single sheet, not to collect small pieces of the structure, then have to make fewer cuts and joints of the material will be less noticeable.

If it docked two plates clipped, their edge on the front side is cut slightly diagonally, using a knife to further plaster weld and make it less noticeable.

Securing basic sheets of drywall, paneling spend threshold.To begin securing elements on the side, then move to the lower plates.

The video below shows a detailed scheme of work for headliner plasterboard.

Finish

After plating frame plasterboard necessary to carry out finishing work:

  • For starters take a universal primer and gruntuem surface (leave at a certain time to mix properly, dry out);
  • When the surface is dry, put on joints mounting tape-serpyanku and put special corners for mounting and alignment structure (straight line fastened with metal corners and smooth and rounded anchoring flexible plastic corners);
  • surface coat with plaster and put on it the required area, lightly pushing it into the solution (excess mixture, tread on the edges, remove construction shovel or trowel);
  • sure to putty and caps on the screws (to do them, and had a little sink into the material);
  • After the plaster is dry on all the elements of the alignment, you must walk through the putty throughout the finished surface of the ceiling (use of a finishing solution);
  • Then we clean dry surface roughness by using fine-grained grater.

If you have attached sheets of drywall and forgot to do them at the holes for fixtures, it is not necessary to be upset.

Holes can be cut and after the construction of the installation, using a special drill-glass of the required diameter.

After the holes are ready, the wiring is pulled out and made the installation of lighting fixtures.

lamps with matched the ceiling design and overall interior room.The photo shows the possible options for lighting fixtures for ceiling plasterboard.

As you can see, the design installation, and further work are not very complicated, and you may well make a two-level ceiling of plasterboard with theirforces, thereby creating various design options in the hallway, living room or kitchen.
