What Are Ceiling Covers?
Although it is overhead and out of the sight, for the most part, many people have a tendency to overlook the importance and design of their ceiling.
Homeowners are using ceiling covers more and more to transform the appearance of their rooms to conceal damage or add architectural detail and warmth.
Ceiling covers do exactly what their name implies – they cover up the existing ceiling. There are specialty covers that are available that add a safety or decorative component to vents, light fixtures, and fans.
Where Ceiling Covers Can Be Used
You can use ceiling covers anywhere you would like to hide textured ceilings like popcorn ceilings, drywall, joists, plumbing, or exposed wires.
They are also a fairly inexpensive remodelling option. If you are going to add a ceiling cover to a bathroom or the basement, then select a product that has been designed for withstanding those conditions.
