"Our 18â ceiling had some hurricane water damage when the soffits blew out. We tried repeatedly to find a contractor. Every one we interviewed either didnâ t want the job or never returned promised phone calls, We put the project on hold. Fast forward to August and we decided to try Angieâ s List. Rodolfo called us immediately and set up an appointment to see the project in person. He was professional and very impressive. He ran his business as all contractors should. The job was completed on time, looks great and the clean up also impressed us. We wish there were more companies like Roldolfoâ s!"

"We started using The Cleaning Specialists, LLC to clean our home about 4 months ago. David and Lori both came to our house and reviewed what we wanted done and provided us a quote that was competitive and fair. They have cleaned our house now about 5 times and we couldn't be happier. They are VERY thorough, always on time, and very professional. David is really good at cleaning all of our slider windows and Lori makes our tile and wood floors spotless. The house always shines and smells so clean when they are done. We highly recommend them."

"North Fort Myers, FL. We had Dane come out to hang 1 light, 5 fans and mount a 77" TV! I showed him all the individual projects and he went to work! Very personable, yet professional. Would I hire Dane again, YES in a minute! Actually we'll have him out again to change out outdoor sconces and hang cabinets in the laundry room area. Wonderful experience."
A drop ceiling is a type of secondary ceiling that is dropped down below the actual ceiling of a room, hence the name. It’s made up of ceiling tiles (made of fiberboard, foam, wood, metal, or plastic) supported by a metal grid. The space between the drop ceiling and the structural ceiling can be used to hide wiring, pipes, and HVAC ducts.
Most drop ceiling installations take about two to three days, including the time needed to build the grid frame, install it, and place each ceiling tile properly. Your installation might take more time if you need to modify plumbing, HVAC ducts, or electrical wiring to accommodate the new ceiling.
Most drop ceilings require a clearance of at least three inches from the structural ceiling, though you’ll likely need more than that to make space for pipes, ducts, lights, fans, sprinklers, or wiring. In many places, building codes require a minimum ceiling height of seven feet, which can limit the amount of clearance you’ll have between your drop ceiling and structural ceiling.
Yes, you can paint a drop ceiling, but it’s not always recommended. Painting a drop ceiling can sometimes void your warranty because using improper paint or technique can cause the tiles to sag. Paint can also negatively affect the fire resistance, soundproofing, and light reflection of the panels. Consider these downsides before taking on ceiling painting costs.
