Does the ceiling height differ between 3, 4 and 5 room type of flats, and condos?

From what i know, HDB ceiling high is 8.4 ft.

Same for 3, 4 and 5 room?

didn't really measure but i think units on the highest floor of HDB has a lower ceiling height. My bro-in-law stays on the 5th floor while we stay on the 16th and it seems that my ceiling is lower than his.

Condo's ceiling will be higher than normal HDB flat

Mine 3-room flat is > 30 years old, ceiling very low, not even 8.2 ft :jawdrop:

Got to drop the idea of putting ceiling fan due to the extremely low ceiling :bangwall:

Yes, condo's ceiling is higher than HDB for sure.

I thot highest unit shld have higher ceiling?

My 4-room HDB unit is on top floor, and the ceiling is definitely higher. My curtain height are already more than 8.6ft and that is measuring from the false ceiling to the floor. :notti:

HDB normal ceiling height can be from slightly less than 7ft to slightly more than 8ft. Target is about 8ft. Difference is about 2-4 inches. One factor can affect is how thick u lay your tiles.

1ft = 12 inches

i do agree that highest floor has a higher ceiling. Not sure about others, mine is a 20 years old and i stayed on the highest floor, my ceiling is indeed higher or look higher at least.

I live in a 3rm flat in bukit batok age 20 plus years ceiling about 2.8m. Ceiling height cannot be 7ft thats like 2.1m. Highest floor normally have higher ceiling.
