If you are searching for a PVC ceiling shop near you in Bokaro Steel City, this guide is written
specifically for you.
Wall Fabrica is a Bokaro-based interior firm that supplies and installs PVC ceiling panels across
all sectors of Bokaro Steel City — Sector 4, Sector 9, City Centre, Chas, and the surrounding
areas. We are not a catalogue company or an online store. We visit your site, show you physical
samples, and install the ceiling ourselves.
Before you call anyone, here is everything you need to know about PVC ceilings — types, cost,
installation, and what to watch for — so you make the right decision the first time.
Bokaro's climate creates specific challenges for ceilings. The combination of peak summer heat
(up to 44°C), monsoon humidity, and cool dry winters means ceiling materials face significant
stress across the year.
Traditional gypsum board ceilings — the most common choice in Bokaro apartments — handle
dry conditions well but absorb moisture. A single overhead leak, a monsoon seepage, or even
sustained high humidity causes gypsum ceilings to stain, bubble, and eventually crumble at the
joints.
PVC ceiling panels do not absorb moisture. They are 100% waterproof, wipe-clean, and
dimensionally stable across Bokaro's temperature range. Here is how they compare to the
alternatives:
| Material | Performance in Bokaro Climate | Maintenance |
|---|---|---|
| PVC Ceiling Panels | Waterproof, heat-resistant up to 60°C, no warping, no staining from leaks | Wipe with damp cloth. No repainting needed |
| Standard Gypsum Board | Good in dry conditions, but stains and crumbles with moisture exposure | Repaint every 2–3 years. Replace sections after leaks |
| Moisture-Resistant Gypsum | Better than standard gypsum, but still degrades with sustained humidity | Less frequent repainting, but still requires maintenance |
| Wooden False Ceiling | Warps with seasonal temperature and humidity changes in Bokaro | Requires periodic oiling, polishing, and pest treatment |
| Mineral Fibre Tiles (Grid) | Good acoustic performance, but absorbs moisture and discolors | Tiles need replacement after leaks or high humidity |
The practical case for Bokaro: Most homes and offices in Bokaro's older sectors — Sector 4,
Sector 9, and the township areas — have experienced at least one ceiling leak or stain over the
years. PVC panels are the only ceiling material that eliminates the leak-damage-repaint cycle
permanently. Once installed correctly, the ceiling requires nothing except an occasional wipe-
down.
PVC ceiling panels come in a wider range of designs than most people expect. The right type
depends on the room, the ceiling height, and the aesthetic you are after.
1. Plain White PVC Panels — The Clean, Classic Choice
The most commonly installed PVC ceiling panel in Bokaro homes. Flat surface, bright white,
available in widths from 10cm to 25cm planks. Looks like a plastered ceiling from below but
performs far better.
Best for: Kitchens, bathrooms, utility areas, storerooms, and any room where function matters
more than design statement. Also the most practical choice for rooms with low or standard
ceiling heights (8 to 9 feet) where a decorative panel would feel heavy.
2. Textured or Wood-Finish PVC Ceiling Panels
PVC panels with an embossed or printed surface — replicating wood grain, linen, concrete, or
geometric patterns. The texture adds depth and warmth to rooms where the ceiling is part of the
design scheme.
Best for: Living rooms, dining areas, bedrooms, and commercial reception areas where the
ceiling is visible and intended to contribute to the room's character. Wood-finish PVC ceiling
panels in a warm oak tone work particularly well in Bokaro homes where the living area has
warm-toned furniture and wall panels.
3. PVC Laminated Gypsum Board (Hybrid)
A gypsum board with a PVC laminate bonded to the surface. This combines gypsum's rigidity
and large-format installation ease with PVC's moisture resistance and cleanability.
Best for: Large commercial spaces — office floors, conference rooms, lobbies — where a
seamless ceiling expanse is needed and the PVC plank pattern would read as too domestic.
Also suitable for Bokaro homes with high ceilings (10 feet and above) where a full gypsum
board look is preferred.
4. PVC Grid Ceiling Tiles
Square or rectangular PVC tiles dropped into a suspended aluminium grid system. Individual
tiles can be lifted to access services — electrical, plumbing, HVAC — above the ceiling plane.
Best for: Commercial offices in Bokaro where above-ceiling access is needed regularly.
Common in Bokaro's corporate offices in the industrial areas and in medical or educational
facilities. Not typically used in homes unless the above-ceiling service density requires access.
Cost is the question most Bokaro homeowners and business owners want answered
immediately. Here is an honest, Bokaro-specific breakdown:
| Scope | Typical Cost in Bokaro | What Drives Variation |
|---|---|---|
| Plain PVC plank ceiling — per sq ft (supply + install) | Rs. 55 – 95 | Panel width, brand quality, room height, accessibility |
| Textured / wood-finish PVC ceiling — per sq ft | Rs. 80 – 140 | Pattern complexity, panel grade, cove or step design |
| PVC laminated gypsum ceiling — per sq ft | Rs. 90 – 160 | Board thickness, finish quality, joint treatment |
| PVC grid tile ceiling — per sq ft (grid + tiles) | Rs. 70 – 120 | Grid material quality, tile grade, room shape complexity |
| LED strip or cove lighting integration — per room | Rs. 350 – 800 | Strip brand, driver quality, diffuser profile type |
| Removal of existing ceiling (if required) — per sq ft | Rs. 15 – 30 | Material type, ceiling height, debris disposal |
For a typical Bokaro home room — say a 150 sq ft kitchen with a standard 9-foot ceiling — a
complete plain white PVC ceiling installation including supply, labour, edge trims, and one
exhaust fan cutout typically costs Rs. 9,000 to Rs. 16,000.
For a 200 sq ft living room with a wood-finish PVC ceiling and integrated LED cove: Rs. 22,000
to Rs. 38,000.
Any quote significantly below these ranges should prompt a direct question: what is
the panel brand, what is the frame material, and what does the per-sq-ft rate exclude?
Low quotes almost always exclude trims, frame quality, or site preparation.

Can PVC ceiling panels be installed over an existing ceiling?
Yes — in most cases, PVC plank ceiling panels can be installed on a lightweight aluminium or
PVC batten frame suspended from the existing ceiling structure. This avoids demolition of the
existing surface and reduces dust and disruption significantly.
The existing ceiling needs to be structurally sound enough to support batten fixings. Our site
visit includes an assessment of whether overlay installation is viable or whether the existing
ceiling should be removed first.
How long does a PVC ceiling installation take in a typical Bokaro home?
A single room (kitchen or bathroom, 80 to 120 sq ft) typically takes one working day for supply
and installation. A full home ceiling (3BHK, 800 to 1,100 sq ft) typically takes three to five
working days depending on room count and ceiling complexity.
Commercial projects are scoped individually. We provide a timeline in the project proposal
before work begins.
Is PVC ceiling suitable for rooms with AC in Bokaro's climate?
Yes — PVC ceiling panels perform well in air-conditioned rooms. They do not condense or
sweat with the temperature differential that forms between a cold room and a warm ceiling void,
provided the ceiling void is adequately sealed at the edges.
Rooms in Bokaro with poor AC insulation sometimes develop condensation issues. We assess
this during site visits and recommend appropriate edge sealing to prevent moisture from forming
on the panel back face.
What is the difference between PVC and gypsum ceiling in cost over 10 years?
A gypsum ceiling in a Bokaro kitchen or bathroom typically requires full repainting every 2 to 3
years and partial replacement after any leak event. At Rs. 12 to 18 per sq ft per repaint cycle, a
150 sq ft kitchen ceiling costs Rs. 1,800 to Rs. 2,700 per repaint — four to five times over 10
years, plus any leak-repair replacement cost.
A PVC ceiling on the same kitchen costs more upfront but requires zero repainting and survives
leaks without damage. Over 10 years, the total cost of ownership almost always favours PVC
for kitchens, bathrooms, and any moisture-adjacent room.
These are the four questions worth asking any PVC ceiling firm before booking them:
1. Can you show me a completed ceiling installation in Bokaro I can visit? Photos are not
sufficient — ask to visit an actual project.
2. What brand of panel and frame are you using? Low-cost PVC panels use thin frames
and low-density panels that sag at joints within 2 to 3 years.
3. What does your quote include? Confirm whether edge trims, fan cutouts, light fittings,
and frame material are all included. These are the most commonly excluded items.
4. Who is on site for the installation? A firm that subcontracts the actual installation without
supervision produces inconsistent results. Confirm who physically installs the ceiling.
