sagging ceiling panels
Posted: Sat Aug 07, 2010 1:37 am
Hi, I am looking for a repair solution for some sagging ceiling panels in a older mobile home. The sags are not all that extreme... around 1/4" over 16 inches when I put a straight edge to them. I drilled some small exploratory holes and pulled out some insulation but didn't see anything out of the ordinary ( these I will patch up like nothing ever happened). The effected panels are directly below the roof vents. Seals around the roof vents appear to be just fine.
I have read about the water fix but was thinking about injecting some sort of glue or water with a large gauge needle into the material and then using the 2x4 plywood jacking system and hope it would hold.
I have a high efficiency furnace/and use a 3m filter and disconnect a wire which basically turns the furnace into a air cleaner. I'm thinking since the blower is quite powerful... I'm drawing moist air through the vents. I live in BC and it tends to rain/moist air allot in this neck of the woods.
Any ideas?
