Recent Petaling Jaya projects.
Old PJ homes, new PJ condos
An older SS2 or Section 17 bungalow usually needs its dated ceiling brought up to a cleaner, more contemporary profile. A newer Bandar Utama or Kelana Jaya condo is closer to a first-fit job, planned around the unit's existing services.

Planning a plaster ceiling in Petaling Jaya.
Older sections, newer high-rise
PJ's older sections such as SS2 and Section 17 date back decades and are mostly landed: single- and double-storey terraces, semi-Ds and bungalows, many renovated more than once. Kelana Jaya and Bandar Utama add condominiums and commercial towers. The older the house, the more likely the existing ceiling has to come down first, and the more often wiring is rerouted at the same time.
What we've built in PJ
In a PJ home we combined floating rectangular and curved ceilings with curved partition walls. In one room the ceiling runs on into the partition so the two read as one shape, with LED troughs tracing the edges. In SS2 we fitted out a beauty salon with arched doorways, curved partitions, a mirror-board feature ceiling and aluminium LED profiles, and built some cabinets from partition board to keep the cost down.
How a floating ceiling is priced
A floating ceiling hangs slightly below the main ceiling with a hidden gap around its edge for LED strip. It is priced from the same items on our list: the ceiling area per sq ft, plus the light trough by the running foot. Curved edges take more work, so we price them once we have seen the drawing.
Shop-lots in SS2 and Section 17
For a shop fit-out, tell us your opening date and any landlord rules early. The ceiling usually has to be finished before the shopfront, signage and furniture go in, so it sets the pace for the rest of the job.
