HTAN 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2018 Hi I just got a 13 year old resale condo. Going to hack all the kitchen and bathroom wall tiles. Do we need to hack the false ceiling in there as well? Most of the IDs we spoke to included hacking the false ceiling in the quotations. Only 1 ID say no need as he is able to hack the walls without spoiling the existing false ceiling. Need advice on whether this is possible? or he is just trying to give a low initial quote? Thank you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you! I think it is needed to take of the false ceiling. As everything is connected. Even if the ID did not remove the ceiling. It will not be as good as when you hack the wall, it will definitely affect it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kangeroo168 10 Report post Posted January 20, 2018 ok, HTAN, its yes and no. u can take off false ceiling, and redo. this definitely will be nicer. u don't need to take off false ceiling, but the joints between the ceiling and the wall tiles will definitely does not look as nice as u redo the false ceiling. so it actually depends on ur threshold to workmanship and ur budget.
