Get a clean, lasting finish
- Ask whether the quote is labour-only or includes materials.
- Confirm the design in a photo or drawing before work starts.
- Good POP needs proper drying time — don't rush painting over it.
- Check past ceilings for straight lines and no visible cracks.
💡 Cracks usually come from poor materials or rushing the job. Insist on quality boards and enough curing time before painting.
