phoenix 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2008 how much did u pay for your false ceiling? i've a 5 rm flat and i got 2 quotes for false ceiling and they differ quite greatly... difference is almost $450. i thought materials used for false ceiling should be standard and same? how come price can differ so much? anyone have good contacts to do false ceiling only?? another question. do we have to do electrical works before doing false ceiling?thanks!
