False Ceiling
A false ceiling (also known as a suspended ceiling or drop ceiling) is a secondary ceiling that is hung below the original (or “true”) ceiling. It is typically made of lightweight materials such as gypsum board, mineral fiber tiles, or PVC panels and serves both decorative and functional purposes. False ceilings are a popular choice for homes, offices, and commercial spaces, as they provide an opportunity to enhance the aesthetics of a room, conceal wiring, pipes, and ducts, and improve acoustics and lighting.

Considerations When Installing a False Ceiling:
- Room Height: False ceilings reduce the height of a room. In rooms with low ceilings, it’s essential to carefully plan the design to avoid making the room feel cramped.
- Lighting Design: Plan the placement of lighting (recessed lights, LED strips, or chandeliers) to highlight the false ceiling’s design and create the right ambiance.
- Material Selection: Choose the material based on room usage, moisture levels (in kitchens or bathrooms), and desired aesthetic.
- Cost: False ceilings can vary significantly in price based on the materials used and the complexity of the design. Basic PVC or gypsum ceilings are more affordable, while wooden or stretch ceilings can be more expensive.
- Maintenance: Depending on the material, some false ceilings may require periodic cleaning or repairs, especially in high-humidity areas.
