A ceiling does more than cover the space above your head — it hides wiring, defines the room's proportions and houses your lighting. And when a ceiling sags, stains or cracks, it is usually telling you something about the structure or services above it. Renovix provides ceiling and partition services for homes and businesses across Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and the Klang Valley, from plaster and gypsum ceiling installation to repair, replacement, and the design of modern ceiling features.
We also build partition walls — gypsum and drywall partitions, glass partitions, office layouts, room dividers and soundproof partitions — so you can create the rooms and spaces your home or business needs. Ceiling work connects naturally with electrical (lighting points, fans, downlights) and painting, and we coordinate those steps so your ceiling and partition project finishes cleanly.

Service Overview
Whether you are building a new ceiling, replacing a damaged one, or dividing a room, the work needs accurate framing, clean joints and proper coordination with the services running above and behind.
For ceilings, we work with plaster and gypsum board to build flat, modern ceilings — including suspended and false ceilings, L-box designs, bulkheads, and cove lighting features that give rooms a contemporary feel. We also handle ceiling repair and replacement: sagging boards, water-damaged sections, cracks and ageing ceilings are assessed, repaired or rebuilt to match the existing design.
For partitions, we build full-height and partial walls in gypsum and drywall for bedrooms, living areas, shops and offices — including glass partitions where visibility and light matter, and soundproof partitions for quieter rooms. Where renovation involves removing an existing partition or repairing damaged walls, we handle that too, and leave the surface ready for painting or other finishes.

Cracks appearing along ceiling board joints, common in older installations.
Old plaster ceilings that have become loose or started to crumble.
Flat, dated ceilings replaced with modern profiles, coves and lighting features.
Spaces that need an extra room, office area or separation — solved with partitions.

Our Process
Ceiling and partition projects are planned around the services they will carry — lighting, fans and cabling — before any board goes up.
We discuss the ceiling design or partition layout, and map where lighting, fans and services will go.
Metal or timber framing is installed level and square, ready for the boards.
Gypsum or plaster boards are fixed, with cut-outs for lights, fans and fittings.
Joints are skimmed and sanded, then the surface is handed over for painting and electrical finishing.

FAQs
Straight answers to the questions customers ask us most about this service.
Ceiling work mixes two pricing units, which is the trick to reading any quote: flat planes run per square foot, but L-boxes, coves and cornices are linear work priced per foot run — so a design with lots of edge detail costs more than its area suggests. Board spec sets the rest: moisture-resistant for wet rooms, rockwool packing where quiet matters. Repairs ignore the per-sqft logic altogether — a sagging or water-damaged section starts at a per-trip minimum, because diagnosis, making good and matching the existing design all happen regardless of how small the patch looks.
Both are common ceiling systems. Gypsum board is a manufactured panel that is fast to install and easy to finish with skim coating, while traditional plaster ceilings are applied wet and skimmed smooth. We advise on the best system for your ceiling design and condition.
Yes, in many cases. Localised damage such as water stains, cracks or small sagging areas can often be repaired. Widespread failure or an ageing ceiling that keeps developing problems may justify replacement — we assess and recommend honestly.
Downlights and new light points can often be added, but the work depends on the ceiling type and what is above it. We coordinate the cut-outs and electrical work so the result is clean and safe.
A standard false ceiling typically drops the ceiling by a modest amount to accommodate wiring and fittings, but the exact drop depends on your design and what needs to be hidden. We plan the height to suit your room.
Partitions built from gypsum or drywall framing are generally non-structural. If you are considering removing an existing wall, it should be assessed first — we can advise on the appropriate checks before any removal.
A standard partition reduces everyday noise between rooms. Where more quiet is needed — bedrooms, meeting rooms or studios — sound insulation can be built into the partition construction.
