"We talked to a few GCs, a few Chimney Guys , our Architect Friend and our Heating and Cooling guy to figure out what the heck to do with this mess. Our Architect friend and Heating guy gave us a venting plan(metal duct work run out the side of the house.) William Moore(Bud) of Above & Beyond pulled everything together and made it happen for a reasonable price. Bud patiently listened to all our concerns and we talked through the priorities that we needed address in our house. Bud is very knowledgeable and personable. He gave us pros and cons on different ways to solve the problems and made very good recommendations. 1 year later I am still very pleased with his work and looking forward to having him help us with future projects, Bud's crew were very friendly and respectful guys. Detail of work done: Garage: Insulated wall and ceiling were it meets with garage and install raftermates on roof for breathing purposes. Installed new 5/8" sheetrock on ceiling and walls in between livingspace and garage. Installed new fire rated door in between living space and garage. Installed new coax cable to existing location and ethernet to two new locations. Installed new AZEK trim board on both vertical trim sides of garage opening. Remove cement block chimney in garage and dispose of debris. Roof: Closed and shingled opening left after chimney removal. Sealed various areas around roof that were leaking or potentially prone to leak in future. Installed a new boot and re-shingled area above master bath that was repaired twice before and still leaked. Results: No more leaks. House is warmer. Car exhaust odors from garage do no seep into house anymore. We are very please. Thanks Bud!"

"Inson is an excellent person to work with. He puts in the time to make sure that he understands what you want and then is able to translate that into incredible design work. Every single person who has entered our apartment post-reno has commented on how amazing it looks. We were very lucky to find him and benefit from his expertise as well as the great contractor and team of builders he works with. Also, when he says he comes in on time and on budget, he means it - we had a very tight window for renovation and everything was finished on time as promised. Highly recommend."

"My front door was hung in a crooked door frame and would not close or lock all the way. I also needed to install 2 new storm doors, one in that crooked door frame. I’m on a limited budget, and Nixon was able to correct the door lock situation, compensate for the frame, and install the storm doors beautifully. Everything now works perfectly and looks amazing. He recommended the perfect storm doors and hardware and even picked everything up for me. It was all finished in 2 hours! Highly recommend!"

"Nixon came to look at leak in the ceiling. He gave me a fair quote, and left a temporary solution since places had to dry out before he could do the needed repair. Today the repair was completed well and promptly. He and his workers were polite, neat and pleasant. Will hire him again, I'm sure."

Ask the following questions to make sure you know what’s involved and that you’ve hired a good team:
Is your company licensed, bonded, and insured?
What is the best tile size for my project?
What fire rating do my ceiling tiles need?
How long will it take to install the drop ceiling?
What is the height of the finished drop ceiling?
Most residential building codes require a minimum ceiling height of 7.5 feet from the floor to the finished drop ceiling, ensuring adequate headroom and safety compliance. Since requirements can vary by location, consult your local code enforcement office or a professional installer to confirm the specific clearance needed for your project.
Installing a drop ceiling results in a loss of ceiling height ranging from 3 inches to 8 inches. The exact amount depends on factors like the size of the fixtures above, such as ductwork or lighting, and the manufacturer's recommendations for installation. Local building codes also dictate minimum ceiling heights, so it's important to consult with a professional installer to determine the optimal drop distance for your specific space.
Installing drywall costs between $1.50 and $3 per square foot for materials, labor, and finishing—significantly less than the $9 to $13 per square foot average for a drop ceiling. While drop ceilings come with a higher initial cost, they offer greater design flexibility, easy access to utility lines, and are simpler and less expensive to repair. To minimize expenses, consider budget-friendly fiberboard panels, though their appearance may be less appealing to some homeowners.
Drop ceilings offer several advantages and disadvantages.
Pros:
Easy to install and repair
Conceal stains, ductwork, and other unsightly elements
Provide quick access to ducts and wiring for maintenance
Available in various styles to suit your design preferences
Cons:
Reduce ceiling height
Tiles may require replacement after a few years
Less sturdy than traditional ceilings
Installation can be more time-consuming than drywall
Removing a drop ceiling costs between $2 and $7 per square foot, which includes disassembling the rail system and removing tiles. Factors such as ceiling size, accessibility, and disposal fees affect the total cost. If you're removing a drywall ceiling, expect costs of $2 to $4 per square foot. Hiring a professional ensures safe removal and proper disposal, preventing damage to underlying structures.
