Why Cover Exposed Timber Beams?
As we mentioned earlier, 50 or more years ago, exposed timber beams were extremely popular. However, styles have changed.
Many people find timber ceiling beams to “feel” heavy, dark, and outdated.
Ceiling beam coverups are quick to install, and they’re an inexpensive way to modernise your home, giving it a fresh, beautiful new look.
Ceiling beam cover-ups are also practical. They can hide ugly, exposed wires or other imperfections while improving insulation.
No matter what beam size your home has, you can improve your living space and give your home a much more modern look with timber beam cover-ups.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can you cover any type of exposed timber beam?
A: Pretty much, yes. The type of timber used doesn’t matter. The only exception would be if the existing beam had damage, termites, or signs of moisture. Even load-bearing beams can be safely covered as long as an access point is created so it can be inspected if needed.
Q: What materials are used to cover timber beams?
A: Gyprock is the most common type of material used to cover timber beams. Gyprock is lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to use. We can use other types of lightweight material if you prefer.
Q: Is it better to remove the beams or simply cover them?
A: This would depend on several factors. If the beams don’t support the roof or any walls, if they are purely decorative in nature, they can be removed. If the beams are rotten or have termites, they should be removed. Otherwise, it is safer and less expensive to simply cover up timber beams.
Q: Do I need council approval to cover timber beams in Perth WA?
A: Not usually. As long as the beams are simply being covered and there are no structural changes, no permission is required.
Q: Can you match the new ceiling to the rest of the room or house?
A: Yes, we can! Most Perth homes have Gyprock ceilings, which are easy to match and paint, if required. Lighting, vents, and ceiling fans can also be reinstalled or added to make it appear as if your ceilings were always made of Gyprock.
