The fifth wall: The once-ignored ceiling is now the 'it girl' - for good reason

The once-ignored ceiling is now the 'it girl' - for good reason. Decorated ceilings are functional and can add beauty to a room.

By Gillian Drummond - Published: 08.14.2005 THE ARIZONA DAILY STAR

It's what designers call the fifth wall - a space that's been long neglected but is now on the home improvement radar.

.....................Today it has a high perceived value, but it's much less expensive than it looks, according to American Tin Ceiling Co. in Bradenton, Fla. "If you spend $500 for a tin ceiling, people think you've spent $5,000. It's got a wow factor," says national sales manager Ken Lindfors.

Most tin panels are mounted on a strip of wood first and nailed to the ceiling. But the American Tin Ceiling Co. has developed its own interlocking panels that can be mounted directly onto drywall or plaster, cutting the cost and labor time, says Lindfors. He reckons a 12-by-16-foot ceiling would come in at around $900..........................

Tutorial: How to install Tin Ceilings

Installing A Tin Ceiling

Layout and design of your tin ceiling should be planned prior to purchase, therefore we make our designers available for consultation Monday through Friday: 8am – 6pm, and Saturday: 9am- 2pm. - Call us toll free: 1-888-231-7500 - www.AmericanTinCeilings.com

The type of panel purchased will determine the method of installation.

Drop-in

Drop-in panels are placed into a suspended ceiling grid. No other installation method is required. We do not carry suspended ceiling grids nor do we consult on grid installation.

Nail up

Prepare your room.

Run chalk lines to map out the positioning of your panels on the ceiling. Start from center and work you way out to the walls. Mark a center point in the middle of the room. If you have a fixture in the center of the room you can often center the initial panel on the fixture, or have 4 panels meet at the fixture.

Install your substrate.

Nail up panels require 3/8” plywood or particle board substrate or a furring strip array to which the nail up panels are fastened.

Fasten your panels to the substrate. Fasteners most commonly used are brad nails (for use with brad guns) and cone head nails. Both are readily available at most hardware stores. Attach the first panel at the prepared center starting point. Attach corresponding panels by overlapping the nail rails and nail through both panels. General rule is one nail per corner and one to two nails per edge or 1 nail every six inches.

Finalizing

Without filler: cut the final rows of panels to fit flush against the walls. Trim out the edges with crown molding or beveled molding.

With filler: Install your panels up to your filler area. Cut the filler to fit flush against the wall. Install filler by coating the backside with Liquid Nails or similar adhesive and position in place. Nail filler panel into substrate, placing one nail every 6 inches around the perimeter of the filler panel.

You should now have a beautiful Nail up tin ceiling.

Post installation tips

White colors need to have edges caulked with white caulking; otherwise the edges show against the white finish.

Nails can be hidden with touch up paint. Matching paints can be purchased at most hardware stores. Our installers use Behr paints.

SnapLock™

Prepare your room.

Run chalk lines to map out the positioning of your panels on the ceiling. Start from one corner and work your way to the opposing corner or opposite wall. Some people prefer to install one vertical or horizontal column at a time; others prefer to proceed in 4 panel blocks. Either way, you start with the male flange against the wall. Some installers cut the male flange off to flush the panel against the wall.

Attach the panels.

On the prepared starting point, fasten your initial panel directly to the drywall by screwing six drywall anchors through the six pre-drilled screw holes. There are three holes on each of the two screw flanges.

Snap the corresponding panels to the attached panel via the patented interlocking flanges.

Fasten the snapped panel to the drywall as done in sub-step ‘a'.

Continue ‘a' through ‘c' until you've installed all the panels.

Finalizing

Without filler: cut the final rows of panels to fit flush against the walls. Trim out the edges with crown molding or beveled molding.

Backsplash

To install a tin backsplash, coat the backside with Liquid Nails® or a comparable adhesive and position the panel in place. Then nail finishing nails every 6 inches around the panel perimeter. Cut the panels to fit the neccessary area. You can trim out the backsplash with wood molding painted to match or use our tin molding for a more dramatic look.

Cutting tin

There 3 tools that can be used to effectively cut our tin.

Tin Snips. Effective at cutting holes and tin, but time consuming and tiring on the wrist and hands.

Metal Shears. Quick! Tricky to use, but once you get use to them they are great. They take a ¼ inch section of metal with them when they cut through the tin. They can be purchased at most hardware stores like Home Depot or Lowe's for approximately $160. Most consumers and contractors rent them from equipment rental stores. Some Home Depot's also rent them.

Guillotine Paper Cutters. Heavy duty table top paper cutters similar to those used in schools and office environments. Our installers swear by them! Every job requires cutting of varying lengths. We carry Martin Yale ‘Premiere' model, 18” x 26” guillotine cutters. They are available to clients for our cost of $150 plus $25 shipping and handling.

class=feature_content>How to install a tin ceiling

Victorian elegance that transforms a room—and hides cracking plaster.

Some friends of mine recently installed a tin ceiling as part of an expensive (and stressful) kitchen remodeling project. At first they were skeptical about tin. The materials for the tin ceiling they wanted came to about $4 per sq. ft. (plywood included). Considering that they could install drywall for less than 30¢ per sq. ft., $4 seemed outrageous.

But now that the project is done, they say their tin ceiling was a bargain. It draws more praise from visitors than the prefinished oak flooring, the maple cabinets or the solid-surface countertop, each of which cost more than twice as much as the ceiling. And they like the way the shiny surface brightens the room. If my friends have one complaint, it's that the tin reflects sound, sometimes making their kitchen a noisy place.

Tin ceilings—made by stamping patterns into thin sheets of steel—have been around since the mid-1800s and reached the peak of their popularity about a century ago. Victorian-era homeowners liked the way tin dressed up their otherwise boring ceilings and permanently solved their cracking plaster problems.

Tin ceilings are being installed today for the same reasons. Most modern homes lack the ornate decor and high ceilings to accommodate large, deep tin patterns, but more subtle designs fit comfortably into homes with 8-ft. ceilings. Tin ceilings are most often installed in kitchens, but I've also seen them look great in living rooms, dining rooms and bathrooms.

WHAT IT TAKES

Installing a tin ceiling takes a lot more time than a simple drywall ceiling. From plywood preparation to final painting, two of us worked three full days on our 200-sq.-ft. ceiling. We spent about half that time driving hundreds of little nails up into the plywood and complaining about our sore arms.

Stiff muscles aside, most of the project was simple, something any midlevel do-it-yourselfer could handle. To install the plywood (Photo 1) and ceiling panels (Photo 3), we needed only a few tools (hammer, chalk line, circular saw, drill, aviation snips) and the basic know-how to use them.

The frustrating part of installing our tin ceiling was fitting the corners of the cornice (Photos 7 and 8). We spent hours trimming and retrimming, trying—without much luck—to make them fit together tightly. Then we found a better way: We made a big miter box from plywood and cut the corner pieces with a reciprocating saw (Photo 6). We still had to do a bit of trimming with aviation snips after cutting the cornice in the miter box, but we got near-perfect results.

PLANNING THE LAYOUT

Planning a tin ceiling is a complex process requiring lots of careful measurements—and concentration as you put all the measurements together.

Tin ceilings have three basic components: field panels, which cover most of the ceiling; cornice, which—like wood crown molding—covers the corner where the walls and ceiling meet; and filler, which forms a border between the field and cornice.

Tin ceiling materials are sold almost exclusively by mail, so begin by requesting a catalog from the suppliers listed in the Buyer's Guide (p. 36). When you've chosen the field pattern and cornice you want, carefully measure the dimensions of your room and make a scale drawing on graph paper (see Fig. A). Each square on the paper should represent 6 in. since tin ceiling patterns repeat in 6-in. increments (every 6, 12 or 24 in.). NOTE: When you request a catalog, ask about design services. Some suppliers will guide you through the layout process.

Next, draw a line inside the perimeter of your room sketch to represent the “projection” of the cornice, the distance it projects onto the ceiling from the corner where the wall and ceiling meet. Cornices can project 12 in. or more, but in rooms with 8-ft. ceilings, cornices with projections of 6 in. or less look best. Ours had a projection of 4-3/8 in.

Now you're ready to sketch out the field, the area covered by the field panels. The panels are 24-1/2 in. wide and 48-1/2 in. long, and overlap one another by 1/2 in. So your field will always have a measurement that ends with 1/2 in. (8 ft., 6-1/2 in. x 15 ft., 1/2 in., for instance). The field panels can be cut wherever the pattern repeats. So, for example, a field pattern like ours, which repeats every 6 in., could be cut to 6-1/2, 12-1/2 and 18-1/2 in. lengths or widths.

But even when cut, chances are the field panels won't fit perfectly into the area between the four cornices. And that's where filler panels come in. Filler panels have small, subtle patterns so they can be cut to any width without looking awkward. In addition to covering the leftover space between the field and cornice, they create a transition where walls aren't at 90- degree angles. For appearance, you can make the filler wider or narrower by adjusting the size of the field. But your filler most likely won't be a consistent width around the perimeter of the room. On the north and south sides of the room, it may be 10 in. wide, for example, while on the east and west it may be 11-1/2 in. wide.

Don't forget to consider lighting when planning your ceiling. This is the perfect time to add or move fixtures; you can hack up the ceiling to run cables without having to patch the holes. But you must position light fixtures carefully if you want them centered on the tin's pattern.

IMPORTANT: Electrical boxes in the ceiling must be flush with the 1/2-in. plywood that will cover the ceiling. Install new boxes so that they protrude 1/2 in. from the existing ceiling. Existing boxes can be lowered 1/2 in. or extended with “mud rings” (available in the electrical aisle at home centers).

ORDERING YOUR CEILING

Using your graph-paper sketch, you can determine exactly how many pieces of cornice, filler and field panels you'll need. Still, it's a good idea to order at least one extra of each piece to allow for mistakes. NOTE: You can't cut a field panel exactly in half—you must cut it on one side of the row of buttons that run down the center of the panel. So for estimating purposes, any panel that will be cut to half-size or larger must be counted as a full panel.

TIP: Some panels are available in 8-ft. lengths, but we recommend the 4-ft. versions. They're easier to handle and you're less likely to bend and kink them.

Filler panels come in two versions: Some have an overlapping bead that fits over the upper edge of the cornice (Photo 9); others have no bead. If you choose the no-bead filler, order “nosing,” a narrow decorative strip that hides the seam between the cornice and filler.

The W. F. Norman Co. makes one-piece inside and outside “miters” (corner pieces) to match some of its cornice patterns. If you choose one of these patterns and buy the one-piece corners ($9 to $13 each), you can skip the steps shown in Photos 6 through 8. But we don't recommend buying “precut” parts for inside and outside corners that some other manufacturers offer. You can get better results yourself by using a plywood miter box (Photo 6).

Finally, your order may include decorative “cone-head” nails. If not, use flat-headed common nails: 1 in. for the ceiling, 1-1/2 in. for the lower edge of the cornice.

PREPARING THE CEILING

A layer of 1/2-in. CDX plywood screwed to the ceiling is the best base for tin, whether the existing ceiling is plaster or drywall, in good shape or bad.

src="http://www.americantinceilings.com/images/editorial/installing-a-tin-ceiling-pg1-files/479792.jpg">

Before you attach the plywood, locate all the joists and studs and mark their centers with a chalk line (Photo 2). To find the framing behind drywall, use an electronic stud finder ($10 to $40). Not all stud finders work well through plaster, so you may have to find framing by driving a nail through the plaster repeatedly until you hit wood. TIP: If your tin ceiling is part of a major remodeling project that requires tearing into walls, place 2x4 blocking between the studs to provide a continuous nailing surface for the lower edge of the cornice.

There are a couple of rare situations that require a grid of 1x2 or 2x2 furring strips, rather than plywood, to be screwed to the ceiling: The first involves tin patterns that protrude toward the ceiling rather than down into the room. Furring strips provide a recess for deep concave patterns.

Tin Ceilings are Popular!

Tue, 23 Aug 2005 15:16:27 -0400

Why are Tin Ceilings so popular today?

Tin Ceilings remind us of a different time in our country's history. Tin Ceilings stir memories of gentler days when elegance and beauty reigned. A slower paced era where style and grace were the watchwords in home decor. Old time victorian homes, formal parlors, farmhouses with wood burning stoves and other historic architecture we've seen in literature and film or remember from our childhood.

It is said that "Everything Old Becomes New Again". It reinvents itself and becomes fashionable again, perhaps because it was so fashionable in the first place. Fashion goes in and out of style as modern ideas are introduced to the market. But the popular styling's of the past always cycle back into modern contemporary culture. The Tin Ceiling exemplifies this concept.

Tin ceiling popularity dominated early 1900s ceiling decor as an affordable alternative to expensive, artistic plaster. The industrialization of manufacturing allowed intricate plastering and ornamental stucco decoration to be accurately replicated in tin plated steel. Tin-plated steel could be pressed with embossed designs identical to the beauty of sculptured plaster, yet tin ceiling panels could be massed produced at a fraction of the cost of custom plastered ceilings. Also, the installation of tin ceilings could be completed in a day, where custom plaster ceilings took months or sometimes years to complete.

Tin plated steel ceiling panels possessed an additional characteristic that fueled their popularity. They have an hour burn rating at 1300 degrees, which provided an effective fire retardent. In the early 20th century, many first floor stores and shops had apartments homes on the second floor. Tin ceilings installed on the first floor gave the second floor residents adequate time to escape a deadly fire.

These same quality product exists today at an affordable price. Thanks to The American Tin Ceiling Co. anyone can own a beautiful authentic tin ceiling. American Tin Ceilings only uses the original .010 gauge tin-plated steel representative of Turn of the Century tin ceilings, not aluminum, plastic or styrofoam. They utilize high-tech powder coat finishing with powders formulated by industry leaders like Dupont and TCI. By using such a high-end finishing process, they produce the most beautiful tin ceiling panels in America. And because the product is powder coated, it’s perfect for high-humidity areas such as bathrooms and kitchens as well as high-humidity coastal climates.
