How can we help?
Explore our comprehensive guide to architectural plastering, POP designs, and material specifications.
Design & Consultation
Interior design is a profession that requires formal training in spatial planning and building codes. Decorating focuses on aesthetic adornments like furniture and paint.
Yes, for custom commissions, we provide detailed 3D renders to help you visualize the POP ceiling and lighting layouts before our master craftsmen begin.
Absolutely. We can work with your architect's blueprints or a photo you found on Pinterest to recreate the exact look.
A standard living room POP installation usually takes 3-5 days. Full-house projects vary between 2-4 weeks.
Yes, we handle residential, commercial, and industrial plastering projects across Ghana.
We offer free site visits within Accra for serious inquiries. Locations outside Accra may attract a small transportation fee.
Generally, the higher the ceiling, the larger the cornice. We recommend 4-5 inch cornices for standard 9ft ceilings.
Minimalist design uses shadow gaps and hidden lighting instead of heavy decorative moldings for a clean, modern look.
Yes, we can reinforce old ceilings or install a new POP skin over existing concrete or wood.
We provide a smooth 'paint-ready' finish. We can also handle the final painting upon request to ensure the plaster isn't damaged.
POP & Ceiling Technology
POP stands for Plaster of Paris. It is a quick-setting gypsum plaster that we use to create decorative ceilings and moldings.
Yes, gypsum is naturally fire-resistant and acts as a barrier against heat, providing extra safety for your home.
On the contrary, the air gap between the concrete slab and the POP ceiling acts as thermal insulation, keeping the room cooler.
Chandeliers should be anchored to the main concrete slab or a structural beam, not the POP itself. We plan these support points during installation.
It's a design where LED strips are tucked into a ledge in the ceiling, reflecting light off the surface for a soft, luxurious glow.
The plaster itself is about 12-15mm thick, but the entire structure usually drops 5-8 inches from the main ceiling.
In high-moisture areas, we recommend using moisture-resistant gypsum boards rather than standard POP to prevent sagging.
Cracks usually occur due to structural movement of the building or poor mixing of materials. Our master plasterers use reinforced fibers to prevent this.
With proper maintenance and no water leaks, a Sellux POP ceiling will last the lifetime of the building.
Yes, we use 'flat-border' designs that add style without taking up vertical head-room.
It is a decorative circular or square piece installed in the center of the ceiling, usually where a fan or light hangs.
Yes, one of the biggest advantages of POP is its flexibility to be molded into curves, domes, and organic shapes.
Materials & Sourcing
We source medical-grade gypsum and high-density cornices to ensure a crack-free, white finish.
Yes, visit our Material Shop to purchase individual cornices, POP bags, and installation tools.
POP is hand-molded and seamless, allowing for complex curves. Gypsum boards are pre-made sheets that are faster to install but more limited in design.
Gypsum is a natural mineral and is fully recyclable, making it a sustainable choice for interiors.
We use high-tensile fiberglass mesh to give our plaster superior strength and impact resistance.
Keep them in a dry, elevated place. Any moisture will cause the powder to harden and become unusable.
Screeding is the process of applying a thin layer of plaster to walls to make them perfectly flat and smooth before painting.
We use premium bright-white plaster that requires fewer coats of paint to achieve a perfect finish.
Care & Maintenance
Use a soft, dry feather duster or a micro-fiber cloth. Never use wet cloths as moisture can stain the plaster.
Fix the source of the leak immediately. Once dry, we can patch the specific area without replacing the whole ceiling.
Yes, POP can be repainted any number of times using standard emulsion or acrylic paints.
Yes, we coordinate with your HVAC technicians to create precise cut-outs for vents and access panels.
No, gypsum is inorganic and does not provide food for termites or mold, provided it stays dry.
Yes, but it should be done carefully with a hole-saw bit to avoid cracking the surrounding area.
This is usually due to poor quality paint or cigarette smoke. High-quality acrylic paint prevents yellowing.
Ordering & Logistics
We typically require a 70% deposit for materials and mobilization, with the balance due upon 90% completion.
Yes, we deliver materials and send installation teams to all regions in Ghana.
Use our Cost Estimator tool for a rough figure, or contact us for a detailed site inspection and formal invoice.
We provide a 2-year warranty on our workmanship against cracks and sagging.

Unopened bags and undamaged cornices can be returned within 7 days, subject to a 15% restocking fee.
We accept Bank Transfers, Momo (Mobile Money), and Cheques.
