Elevate your space with Cast & Bevel's premium ceiling tiles and panels, designed for direct mounting on any smooth, solid, and clean surface using adhesive. Tiles are designed to fit snugly, with self-adhesive decorative strips to seamlessly blend the joints. Always check local building codes prior to installation.

1. Planning Your Ceiling Layout

Adhering to the wise words, "measure twice, cut once," ensures a flawless execution. Begin by sketching a detailed map of your ceiling area, marking out walls, hallways, closets, doorways, and any ceiling fixtures like lights, vents, or fans. Decide on your tile layout strategy—aim for balanced borders or maybe start from a focal point to minimize cuts. The choice is yours!
 

2. Temperature Considerations

Cast & Bevel tiles withstand up to 120°F without issue. However, proximity to heat sources like halogen lights or kitchen appliances may increase local temperature. For specific concerns, reach out to us for guidance.

3. Surface Prep

Ensure your installation surface is level, clean, and stable. Remove any texture (like popcorn ceiling) and smooth out irregularities with patching and sanding as needed.

4. Room Cleanliness

Ceiling tiles might attract dust due to static. Complete all messy work (sawing, drilling, etc.), then clean the space thoroughly. This ensures optimal adhesion and a clean installation process.

5. Marking the Starting Point

Refer back to your layout plan, checking for accuracy. Use chalk lines to mark your starting point on the ceiling, adjusting as necessary for room irregularities.

6. Applying the Main Tiles

Apply adhesive sparingly but effectively. Start with a bead along the tile's edge and a central X or additional lines for deeper patterns. Place the tile gently against the ceiling, sliding it into position and applying even pressure for a smooth bond. Continue with adjacent tiles, keeping them snug but not forced together.

7. Installing Border Tiles

Measure and cut border tiles to fit the perimeter gaps, placing the cut edges towards the walls for a polished look.

8. Applying Decorative Strips

These strips, designed to cover tile joints, should be applied after ensuring tiles are clean and aligned. Measure, trim, and apply strips with careful attention to pattern continuity, pressing firmly for a secure bond.

Maintenance Tips

Painting

Feel free to paint non-laminated Cast & Bevel products. Ensure cleanliness, avoid harsh chemicals, and test on a sample first. Note: Painting may void warranties.

Cleaning

A simple damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning. For tougher spots, mild soap is safe. Avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the tile's appearance.

Storage

Store any extra tiles upright, in a cool, shaded area to prevent damage.
