    Hey just though i’d update in case anyone else had th same problem as me. I couldn’t find any joists by knocking, everything sounded hollow. Forked out 15 euro for a stud finder, which didnt work as the ceiling is plasterboard! But today, i had someone (who knows stuff about ceilings) pop out some of the spotlights as look in with a torch. Turns out there are some joists , and he said that they wouldnt sound different by knocking. So now i can have a pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

    I had cancelled my xpole order, but am now delighted to order again today! So if anyone thinks they may have false ceilings or no joists, may be worth having a look!

    Hi, I was wondering if a pole would dent a false roof. I have support beams already but my parents are worried that it will dent the roof, Thankyou.

    Effiekaidas9910 You need to have a beam/joist under any pole you install.
