Smoothing a textured ceiling
Hi there,
I am buying a unit that has one of those textured painted ceilings.
Does anyone know if it is possible to have the ceiling smoothed and then painted and leave the cornices in place? If so, is this a painter's or a plasterer's job? I don't really want the textured ceiling as a feature and prefer a plain smooth ceiling. Some friends mentioned the ceiling may have been textured this way to allow for quicker, cheaper work when it was built.
The unit is only about 90 square metres so would probably aim to do it all and get the mess out of the way before moving in.
Any advice about this process would be very much appreciated.
