Gregers - do you know Forest Row by chance Anyway- the Walhatch Hotel used to be in the middle of the village and the owner would not have a roller near the place I remember me and Dad on a scaffold plank hop up - brushing the new ceiling in the dining room one late 60`s summer . 6 and 7 inch brushes - earned my pocket money then . No join lines either
According to me, you should use brush for roof painting. It will take time but will give better result. Roller should be used for second paint coat as small pore impressions are formed by rollers and sometime paint is not applied properly. Plaster will be reflected if roller is used at initial stage.
It's all about cost and time on most jobs. If you have a five bedroom house to paint for example, a roller will cover those ceilings in a fifth of the time a brush would take to do it. You would have to charge the customer a lot more money to brush the ceilings because of the amount of labour involved and most customers wouldn't want that.

Depends on the size of the ceiling, I mainly use a paint brush for the whole job. By the time you paint all the edging, half of the ceiling is already finished.
