    Replace ceiling vs Skim Over

    Hi - looking for some advice/thoughts. We're in the process of moving into a new home. In two of the rooms is a textured/dappled finish on the ceiling. Is it better to take off this finish completely and then put up new plasterboard and skim over? Or, is it possible to just skim over the current textured finish? Depending on what you think is the best approach how much do you think it would cost for this to be done in two rooms? Room 1 = 3.96m x 3.51m Room 2 = 2.51m x 1.85m Is this a big job? Does it take long to complete? Thanks in advance.

    New Windows, Want Sun Screens

    The company that will be installing new windows on my home will not install sun/solar screens, and product warranty would be voided if we install them ourselves after installation. We were told the screens do not help with heat reduction and that they actually damage the windows by trapping the heat between glass and screen. Are sun or solar screens bad?
