Hi all...
I have recently purchased an old house (approx. 80yrs.) and have noticed that the ceiling in the master bedroom is starting to sag. Unlike the rest of the ceilings on the second floor, this one has a stucco kind of finish but I believe it is still plaster.
There is a small access opening in the attic that I looked in today. I noticed quite a bit of greyish brownish insulation and peeled some back to try and find out what was supporting the ceiling but couldn't get very far. As far as I saw, its just plaster.
Any ideas on how to remedy this situation? I was thinking of drywalling it but I don't know if there is 2X4's or just strapping holding things in place at the moment.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
