The first advantage is in the actual
product being used to make our panels
An aluminium alloy has been created to
especially suit our metal ceilings
and walls. Aluminium is a
corrosion resistant, durable product which doesn't rust,
unlike steel which is used by other manufactures of
pressed tin. The panels are still widely known as
pressed tin even though they are not made from tin.
Tile Sizes/Weight
differences
Our pressed tin
ceiling panels are much smaller than sheetrock. They
are generally 6' x 2' or otherwise 6' x 3'. A few in
our range are only 2' x 2'. Our metal paneling is only
one-fiftieth (yes, one fiftieth) of an inch thick. It
is actually thicker than the original older style tin
paneling but it is much lighter. One person can carry
several sheets at one time. Imagine how much easier it
is to hold a lightweight sheet of metal above your head
as opposed to a very heavy sheet of wallboard which is
easily more than twice as big as the largest metal
sheet. The weight difference is enormous. And this is
exactly what you will be doing - holding the sheet above
your head whilst you attach it to your ceiling.
Longer Lasting Than A Plaster Ceiling
Aluminium ceilings won't rust, they
won't crack and they won't fall off. The material they are
made from is non-porous so it resists moisture and odour.
If water enters your roof and if you can remove it promptly
then you will have no damage to your ceiling. You certainly
can't say that about most other types of ceilings. Anyone
who restores buildings will tell you that ceiling
restoration is a major cost and time factor issue for them.
Install one of our ceilings and you won't be facing any
ceiling restoration problems in later years.
Value
Our ceilings
and walls will add more value to your property than they cost. We
will work out the full costing for you.
Strength
Our decorative metal panels are made from
an aluminum alloy. When this special alloy is pressed into
the various designs it hardens substantially and holds its
shape exceedingly well.
Variety of patterns
and designs
Take a look at the designs stamped into these
metal panels. We have an enormous
range of patterns and we can arrange those
patterns into an endless variety of designs to
suit your ceilings and walls. Our design services are
available to assist you in creating a stunning
project.
Painting
the panelling
Painting ornate
tin ceiling panels
is easy because they can be painted before they get fixed to
the ceiling. Painting an ornate plaster style ceiling is
very difficult and requires special equipment otherwise
you will quickly get a sore back and a sore neck. We
recommend using enamel paints on our metal. Our
painting service is available if you don't wish to paint
the ceiling yourself.
Good for
tornado/cyclone areas
Additionally, aluminium ceilings move and flex with the structure so if you are in cyclone or
tornado areas you will find these products particularly
suitable.
Installation
We supply detailed fitting instructions with every
decorative ceiling we sell. Additionally, we offer prompt, top quality
email advice if you encounter any difficulties at any stage
during installation. We are always keen on following up with
all our customers to ensure they are happy with their
ceilings.
The Inevitable Conclusion
As you can see it is infinitely preferable to install an
ornate tin ceiling than a plaster ceiling. We invite you
to employ our services. Tell us about your project and we'll
help you as much as we can. There is no obligation to buy
from us. Just try us out and make your judgement.
