"The Pros did an excellent job! The work ended up encompassing repair to parts of the hallway which were not anticipated but the Pros worked relentlessly to make the repairs to the sheetrock and finish the interior painting on time. We are extremely pleased with the outcome and price of the services provided and highly recommend The Pros!"

"My first review was conducted several weeks ago, and as you can see I was not happy with the results of my sunroom (electrical work). Since that intial review Jerry Matice and I have talked about the electrical work I felt was incomplete. Jerry made good on his promise to send an electrican to complete the job, who by the way, was outstanding! My electrical issue was resolved and I chalk it up to communication. Matice Home Improvements did an excellent job building my sunroom."

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.
