Ceiling

Imagine that we are going to price 50 (8’x5′) bathroom ceilings. When creating a ceiling system, you’ll notice that the first field asks How Many ?, meaning how many times does this occur. The default amount is 1. This enables us to enter, say, 50 ceilings at 8’x5′ or 50 ceilings at 40SF each, your choice. You may also just leave the default of 1 and enter a total SF AREA of 2000 (50x40SF).

If your ceiling happens to be a surface that is not considered to be flat as in a two-way concrete slab (1.5 factor) or a concrete waffle slab (3.0 factor), simply enter the factor in the Surface Factor field.

Please consult our Surface Factor Chart below. It will guide you to accurate production rates, as well as sensible paint coverages since surface factors may affect paint coverage.
