Serving Spring Hill & inner-city Brisbane
Careful ceiling repairs for Spring Hill’s cottages, terraces, apartments and offices — from leak damage to sagging plaster.
CEILING & PLASTERBOARD REPAIRS · SPRING HILL
Spring Hill has some of Brisbane’s oldest housing sitting right beside modern apartment buildings and offices, and ceilings in all of them can crack, stain or sag. SEQ Custom Renovations repairs ceilings and walls across the suburb, with honest advice about what needs fixing and what can be left alone.
Many of the older houses here are workers’ cottages and terraces with VJ board or lath-and-plaster ceilings, and they need a different approach from standard plasterboard. Lath and plaster can lose its grip over time and begin to bulge, while VJ boards may shrink or split. Properties in heritage or character areas may have extra rules about what can be changed, and apartments and offices often need body corporate or building management sign-off. We work within those limits and match the original where we can.

why choose us
local considerations
repair or replacement
Not every damaged ceiling needs complete replacement. After inspecting the area, the scope may include plasterboard patching, gyprock repairs, re-fixing loose sheets, crack and joint setting, cornice repair, removal of water-damaged material, partial re-sheeting and preparation for painting. Where moisture is involved, the source should be addressed before damaged ceiling materials are closed up or refinished.
signs to check
cost and timing
The cost and timeframe depend on the size and location of the damaged area, ceiling height, access, the cause of the damage and whether the existing sheets can be repaired or need replacement. Water-damaged areas may also need drying time before plasterboard repairs and finishing can be completed.

It depends on the size of the damage, the cause and the type of ceiling. Repairing lath and plaster or VJ boards usually takes more time than patching plasterboard. We provide free estimates so you know the cost upfront.
Check your ceilings regularly and always after heavy storms or a leak from above. In older homes, watch for bulging plaster, cracks or gaps between boards, as well as stains and sagging.
Yes. We use low-VOC products wherever possible, and in older homes we try to repair and keep original material rather than removing it.
Stop the water at its source first, whether that is the roof, gutters or a neighbouring unit. Once dry, we remove damaged or mouldy material, replace it with a suitable lining and finish it to match.
Yes. Depending on the condition, we can re-secure and patch the existing ceiling or replace the damaged section with a matching finish. If your home is heritage-listed or in a character area, check whether approval is needed before any significant changes are made.
