If you're searching for sagging ceiling repairs, you've come to the right place. A sagging ceiling in your home or garage may not always be immediately noticeable. Our team specializes in sagging ceiling repair work throughout the Perth metro area.
Sagging ceilings can be the result of less-strict industry practices many years ago that used substandard glue and fixing methods pre 2008. As the adhesive loses its effectiveness, the plaster pulls away from the frame and starts to sag. It can sometimes result in a complete collapse. Another common issue is failed plaster strapping. Some ceilings are supported by straps fixed over the joists, and over time these can break. As some straps fail, additional load is transferred to the remaining ones, creating a ripple effect that can quickly lead to widespread sagging or full collapse. Being proactive and addressing at the first signs of sagging can save you a whole lot of money and mess.
How Can I Spot a Sagging Ceiling?
- Visible join lines throughout rooms.
- Popped screws through the ceiling surface.
- Bow in ceiling - visible curves or dips
- Visible gaps between ceiling and timber joists inside roof space
- Movement when pushed - any give indicates sagging
A general rule of thumb is that if there is any movement when you push on sections of your ceiling, then it's likely sagging and will typically need re-strapping or re-fixing.

Sagging Ceiling
Sometimes a sagging ceiling can be saved, saving mess and cost in the process. However if it's too far sagged repairs won't be successful. Our team can correctly diagnose the situation.
Collapsed Bedroom Ceiling Replaced
This bedroom ceiling had collapsed due to the age and the old ceiling strapping letting go. Old plasterglass ceilings in Perth were commonly fixed by plaster strapping over the timber ceiling joists, which bonded to the back of the sheet. Over time due to the weight of the ceiling these straps can start to break. Usually the ceiling will show signs of sagging where the straps have broken and if the problem is noticed soon enough, the ceiling can be propped and re-strapped, saving a lot of mess and money.
Bulkhead Repairs
During the initial installation of this bulkhead the previous workers had made several construction errors resulting in a bulging from the middle of this suspended ceiling. Perth homes commonly have this bulkhead design and the central bulging is something we regularly see and fix. Our experience with this kind of an issue made the repairs a simple process and the bulkhead was no longer destined for the kitchen floor. Check out the before and after photos to see the improvement. If you have a similar issue in your home, please get in contact with Modus Ceilings right away!

Ceiling Re-Strapped & Repaired
We found this old Plasterglass ceiling severely sagging and on the verge of a complete cave-in! The owners had opted for a repair rather than a replacement, and stipulated they wished to keep the original ornate cornice, which we knew would provide our team a challenge. We divided the repair into several stages, each conducted by our professional team to ensure there would be no issues or dangers through the process. First, we propped up the ceiling and re-strapped the Plasterglass to the ceiling joists in the roof space. Our team then flushed the cracked areas and repainted the repaired areas to reflect the tone of the traditional ceiling. The finish on a repair job like this can simply never be perfect, however with care, finesse, and skill the result can still be first class. By saving their traditional cornices and a fair chunk of change, the owners were particularly happy with the result and service.
Damaged Ceiling Restoration
Severe ceiling failure due to long-term water damage and age, with widespread peeling and deterioration around ornate plaster.
Water Damaged Ceiling
This water damaged ceiling needed urgent attention. We propped it back up, re-fixed the salvageable areas, patched the fallen areas, flushed and then painted. The finish looks as if the damage never existed.
Cracked Ceiling Repairs
This ceiling had sagged and cracked due to the weight of the air con vent. So we re-propped the ceiling, accessed the roof space, set new plaster strapping to strengthen the area, fixed additional screws, flushed the screw holes and cracks, sanded and painted. This issue won't happen again and you'd never know there was an issue at all.
