Hi all, recently im getting quote from contractor to do plaster ceiling with gypsum board.

He quoted me total 645sqft - RM7.5k with 8mm thick gypsum board for ceiling works together with emulsion white paint. plain ceiling works (flat type) w/o open light point.

Is it reasonable price? actually what difference nowadays between gypsum board and plaster ceiling board??  confused.gif

Any sifus here can give me advise? thanks!!  notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

on the high side for this small sqft. Emulsion white paint 18L only cost around ~RM80 for 1 barrel.
Gypsum board same like partition wall, less dust and healthier, easy to work with.
Use at least 9mm thickness board which is available.
Generous contractor will open the light point for you, easy for them. Other may charge RM5-10 per hole. Try to negotiate ask the plaster ceiling guy to open FOC for you.
