How you fix a ceiling depends on the damages and the extent of them. For a ceiling that is broken, has noticeable sagging, or is cracked, you first need to completely remove the ceiling fabric following the steps we mentioned above. After that, you’ll need to replace it with the best material possible. Replacing the material can be tricky and you may want to seek assistance. Seams will need to be secured with mesh seam tape and cut to size. You’ll need to apply a minimum of two layers of compound paint, allowing everything that needs to dry and lightly sanding in between. Next, apply a sheetrock primer and spray any desired texture onto a final coat.
