This material is robust, can last for up to 20 years, and is 30%-40% more affordable compared to the other options.<\/p>\n<p>For folks who are intending to install a false ceiling in wet zones (ie the kitchen or bathroom), make sure you opt for water-resistant plasterboard. Standard plasterboard isn\u2019t water-resistant, and isn\u2019t suitable for use in these areas.<\/p>\n<h2>The Advantages Of A False Ceiling<\/h2>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=&#8221;17955&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;below&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">Orchard | Paterson Suite ($260,000) by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/interior-designers\/design-4-space-pte-ltd\">Design 4 Space Pte Ltd<\/a><\/h6>\n[\/spb_image] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<p>The main advantages of installing a false ceiling include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Hiding electrical wires<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Improving the acoustics in your room<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>First and foremost, false ceilings help you to camouflage any electrical wiring, ducts and pipes, making your room look neat and uncluttered.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, when you install a false ceiling, this creates an air cavity behind the false ceiling that provides sound insulation.

If you\u2019re staying in an HDB, where ceilings heights aren\u2019t that tall to begin with, this might make your space feel claustrophobic.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, of course, there\u2019s the added cost that you\u2019ll incur by installing a false ceiling.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the material you choose and the company you\u2019re engaging to fix up your false ceiling, prices range from S$3.50 to S$13 per square foot. If you\u2019re installing a false ceiling in a living room of a 4-room BTO flat, for example, you can expect to spend S$2,000 or more.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, it\u2019s more troublesome to clean, maintain and repair false ceilings as compared to regular ceilings. With regards to repairs: if there are any problems with the wires hidden within your false ceiling, your electrician might need to remove part of the false ceiling in order to repair the wires.<\/p>\n<h2>False Ceiling: Yes Or No?<\/h2>\n<p>Should you install a false ceiling in your home? It ultimately boils down to your needs.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re on a tight budget and want to keep your renovation affordable, then we\u2019d recommend skipping the false ceiling.<\/p>\n<p>But if you\u2019re okay with incurring that extra cost in order to get a seamless look for your room, then go for it!<\/p>\n[\/spb_text_block] [spb_image image=&#8221;17957&#8243; image_size=&#8221;full&#8221; frame=&#8221;noframe&#8221; caption_pos=&#8221;below&#8221; remove_rounded=&#8221;yes&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; overflow_mode=&#8221;none&#8221; link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;no&#8221; intro_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\">101A Bidadari Park Drive (Alkaff Courtview) ($35,000) by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hometrust.sg\/interior-designers\/9-creation-pte-ltd\">9 Creation Pte Ltd<br \/>\n<\/a><\/h6>\n[\/spb_image] [spb_divider type=&#8221;thin&#8221; text=&#8221;Go to top&#8221; top_margin=&#8221;0px&#8221; bottom_margin=&#8221;30px&#8221; fullwidth=&#8221;no&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;] [spb_text_block animation=&#8221;none&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;0&#8243; simplified_controls=&#8221;yes&#8221; custom_css_percentage=&#8221;no&#8221; padding_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; padding_horizontal=&#8221;0&#8243; margin_vertical=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_css=&#8221;margin-top: 0px;margin-bottom: 0px;&#8221; border_size=&#8221;0&#8243; border_styling_global=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_position=&#8221;first last&#8221;]\n<p>Want to check out home renovation projects for more inspiration?
