What affects the price

  • Type of material: mineral tile grid vs plasterboard vs acoustic panels
  • Ceiling height and accessibility (scaffolding needs in older Nice buildings)
  • Integration of lighting, HVAC vents, or sound insulation
  • Design complexity: flat single-level vs curved or multi-tier ceilings
  • Condition of existing ceiling if rénovation or removal is needed
  • Surface area: larger projects often get a better per-m² rate
