"My living room ceiling was popcorn style and I hired master plastering to smooth the entire ceiling, did a great job and we decided to do the hole house. I really recommend them."

"Great communication. Came when he said he would to estimate. Called the day before to confirm. Came within 5 minutes of he estimated arrival and spent a considerable time covering floors and all surrounding areas with sheets of plastic. Did an incredible job matching the swirl ceiling after other contractors said it could not be done. Cleaned up all material and area. A true professional."

"I hired Silmac construction to remodel my basement. They put in a three-quarter bath, kitchenette, and finished the rest of the basement. This included cutting foundation for full size windows, putting in a new zone for heating and cooling system, and all the plumbing and electrical work needed. They were very professional and did an excellent job. I have gotten many compliments on our basement and I will hire them again to do work on my house."

"The work went really well. Once Pedro’s team got started they worked really quickly on the project, and were even able to accommodate additional work that we added on as we went (once the popcorn ceilings were removed we decided to have the ceilings and walls painted, and a new light fixture added to the dining room). Everything was finished quickly and looks great!"

"I received a response the day after I submitted an Angie's list request. I was asked to send photos of the damaged area (the toilet upstairs leaked and damaged ceiling in bathroom below). Within one week of the initial conversation, the job was complete! The employee was profession, and the work was excellent! I would highly recommend them."

"Forget the rest because E. Hayes plastering is the best. He was quick and clean, and the work looks fantastic."
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.
