To create night light, an original solution was invented โ€“ a neon tape under the ceiling. It is based on a metal profile.

After we figured out the lighting, we move on to the stretch ceiling itself.

The first step is to install an aluminum profile around the perimeter of the entire ceiling.

Then we fix the canvas at 4 corners using a special strong thread.

After you have pulled the canvas, the process of heating the room with a gun begins to about 60-70 degrees.

It is necessary for one person to work with the gun, and the second, using a spatula, pulls the canvas under the profile, stretching it evenly.

The last stage is the design of the joints with a decorative insert. You need to get into the grooves of the profile that you installed at the beginning. So this insert will be fixed and will hold for many years. It is permissible to use a ceiling plinth instead of this insert.

In general, about $ 100 was spent on the material. If you contact the company, the installation will cost $ 15 per square meter, only 13 squares, which will total $ 195. Renting a heat gun per day costs about $ 10.

If you decide to stretch the ceiling in your house, then doing it on your own is not so difficult..
