Redpepper 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2012 Hi all, my designer suggested to have false ceiling for my bathrooms. Although I know aesthetically it's going to be nice but is it practical? Whats the pros n cons? Anyone has experience with this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edenstrauss 3 Report post Posted July 31, 2012 Although it does look nice to have the ceiling covered, like what rentoalk member casa has suggested, it'll be very troublesome once leaking of the roof takes place.When a slight seepage from the ceiling takes place, you wouldn't be able to detect it at all & quickly report the matter to HDB in getting your neighbours staying above to get retiling down for the toilet above as the concrete ceiling has been concealed. (that's assuming that you are staying in a flat)By the time u detected it, the leakage would already be extremely bad & has probably formed a pool of water that made its way through your false ceiling - your false ceiling is likely to be damaged by then. The extent of damage would depend on the severity of leakage too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
