MF Ceilings

MF ceilings use a metal furring grid fixed back to the soffit, giving a flat or feature ceiling ready for boarding and plastering. We use this system for tray details, recessed lighting layouts, and large open-plan rooms where a dead-flat finish matters. Once the grid is set and boarded, we plaster to a smooth finish or hand over for decoration. We fit MF ceilings on new build, refurbishment and commercial projects.

What's involved

  • Setting out and fixing the metal furring grid to the soffit
  • Boarding to the grid, including drops, trays and service voids
  • Tape and jointing or full plaster skim to finish
  • Cutting for recessed lighting, vents and access points

Lay-in Grid Ceilings

Lay-in grid ceilings use a suspended metal grid with removable tiles, giving straightforward access to services above the ceiling line. This is the standard choice for corridors, offices and healthcare settings where cabling, ductwork and fire systems need to stay reachable. We install the grid, run it level and square, and fit tiles to match the space.

What's involved

  • Setting out and hanging the suspension grid
  • Levelling and squaring the grid to the room
  • Fitting ceiling tiles
  • Allowing for access panels, lighting and services
