In Panama a ceiling does much more than cover: it hides pipes, wiring and ducts, improves acoustics and leaves one clean, even surface across the room. Gypsum board (drywall) is the most common solution in Panama City apartments and commercial units because it goes up fast, makes far less mess than concrete and takes LED coves, multiple levels and niches. At 24clima we install gypsum ceilings and walls from $35/m², ready to paint: metal framing, board, tape, joint compound and sanding. We use standard 1/2″ board and, where there is moisture — bathrooms and kitchens —, moisture-resistant MR board. The same crew that fits your air conditioning closes the ceiling: one contract and a 365-day warranty.
Why choose 24clima for your gypsum ceiling?
A clear price per square meter from $35, with tape, joint compound and sanding included: you get a surface ready to paint, not a half-finished frame.
Perimeter LED coves from $25 per linear meter, stepped levels and niches: finishes that transform a living room without touching the building structure.
Moisture-resistant MR board for bathrooms and kitchens, and 5/8″ firecode board when the building rules require it.
One crew for both ceiling and air conditioning: one contract, one 365-day warranty on joints and framing, and nobody to pass the blame to.
How do we install a gypsum ceiling?
- 1
Visit and measurement
We measure the area, check the free height and what has to be hidden above (pipes, wiring, ducts). With that we give you a fixed price per m², no surprises.
- 2
Metal framing
We set profiles and hangers levelled with a laser. A properly levelled frame is what keeps waves and cracks from showing up six months later.
- 3
Boards and joints
We screw on the board (standard, MR in wet areas, or firecode where required) and tape every joint and corner with tape and corner bead.
- 4
Compound, sanding and handover
We apply several coats of compound, sand until the surface is ready to paint and clean the area. Handover comes with a 365-day warranty.
Sources and references
Our technical recommendations are based on guidelines from international HVAC and energy authorities.
“ASTM C840 sets out how gypsum board is installed and finished: framing spacing, fastening, taping and compound coats — the reference that prevents cracks and visible joints.”
“In its GA-216 document, the Gypsum Association recommends moisture-resistant board in wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens, and Type X board where fire resistance is required.”
Frequently asked questions
What does the $35/m² price include?
Gypsum or PVC: which works better in Panama?
Can gypsum go in bathrooms?
How long does a 50 m² ceiling take?
Do you build LED coves and stepped levels?
Can I hide the air conditioner in the ceiling?
Just the ceiling, or hide the air conditioning too?
A gypsum ceiling (from $35/m²) covers framing, board, tape, compound and sanding ready to paint: that's the option when the air conditioning is already sorted or stays visible. If you also want the unit to disappear, decide it before the ceiling is closed: the ducted system with fan coil, linear diffusers and the gypsum around it starts at $6,000 and is done by the same crew, under one contract.
