Normal luminaires without IP protection last 1-2 years on the seafront before corrosion renders them unusable.

We first assemble the metal structure of galvanised steel profiles, screwed to the floor and ceiling. Electrical cables are run, water pipes if any, and the interior is filled with rock wool or glass wool blankets for considerable acoustic insulation. Plasterboard panels are screwed on both sides. Joints are taped with fibreglass and jointing compound, sanded between layers until a completely smooth surface ready for painting is achieved.

The minimum recommended height for a false ceiling is 8-10 cm from the original ceiling.

For high ceilings in old villas where the height is excessive, we can propose a greater drop to restore proportion and allow for more sophisticated lighting. Yes, considerably when filled with rock wool or glass wool. Average insulation: 35-40 dB with two panels and full filling.

Frequently asked questions

How many spotlights do I need in my living room?
For a 20 m² living room, 3,000 total lumens distributed across 6-10 5W LED spotlights. We calculate on-site based on ceiling height and usage.
