False Ceiling Cost in Kolkata

Home/False Ceiling
Ceilings

The fastest way to change how a room feels.

POP, gypsum, PVC and wooden false ceilings from β‚Ή65 per sq.ft.

A false ceiling does three jobs at once β€” it hides wiring and ducting, it carries your lighting, and it defines zones in an open room. Choosing the right material matters more than choosing an elaborate shape.

Questions

False ceiling β€” FAQ

Gypsum for flat, clean ceilings β€” it is factory-made, dries faster and cracks less. POP for curved or moulded designs where boards cannot follow the shape. Gypsum costs slightly more but is more reliable long term.

A peripheral ceiling drops only the edges and keeps the centre height, which is why we use it in most Kolkata flats. You need at least 8 ft finished height for a full ceiling to feel comfortable.

A 2 BHK peripheral ceiling takes about 7–10 days including drying and priming. Designer multi-level ceilings take 12–18 days.
