Is a sagging ceiling dangerous?
Sagging ceilings not only make homes look unattractive; they can also be dangerous. It means that the lower floors may not be holding the weight of the upper floors and/or roof.

Does wet plasterboard need to be replaced?
As a rule, plasterboard that has got wet should be replaced to ensure that it maintains its integrity and original performance. This is the case if boards are bowed, where the paper has peeled, or where mould is growing. Even if it dries quickly, it could leave a stain or mould, especially if the water was dirty water from flooding or leaking pipes.
How much does it cost to fix a sagging ceiling?
Fixing a damaged ceiling can start at around $500 if the damage is minimal. It can reach heights of between $2000 and $5000 if there are more significant cracks, making a ceiling as new, or replacing it entirely.
Of course, any repair costs will depend on how big the ceiling is and what is causing the sagging. Water damage also will cost around $2-3000 to fix. It is crucial to seek professional help in any sagging ceiling fix.
