PVC ceilings offer a simple and attractive solution to ceiling and wall treatment. The material comes in a wide variety of colors and styles and can be applied to almost any ceiling. The material can be installed quickly and the job completed by individuals with very little experience.
Instructions
1. Ensure that the ceiling surface is clean and flat. Use sandpaper if required.
2. Measure the size of the roof using a tape measure to determine the length of PVC ceiling boards needed. Cut with a saw to required length.
3. Place the first PVC on the roof, running parallel to the starting wall.
4. Mark on the wall the locations where screws will be required to hold the board to the ceiling, using a pencil. These locations should already have been cut out of the PVC at appropriate distances. Other methods can be used to attach the boards to the ceiling, including glue and staple guns, however a screw-in system is best for a ceiling.
5. Remove the board from the ceiling and insert screw plugs using drill.
6. Place the first PVC ceiling board on the ceiling and insert the screws.
7. Attach another piece of PVC ceiling board, interlocking with the previous piece. Secure each board with screws.
8. Repeat Step 7 until the entire ceiling has been covered. Cut the final board to ensure a tight fit to edge of ceiling.
9. Attach two-piece edge covering. Mark on the boards and wall the locations where screws will be required to hold the board in place. Hold in place and insert screws. Ensure screws are not too tight, as this may damage the PVC board. Repeat on all wall sides.
