"Eduardo & his team did an excellent job replacing our garage ceiling. Installed new drywall, insulation, taping & floating & painting. It’s now the nicest ceiling in my house. The guys were very professional & took the time to leave it better than before. They were also very tidy & kept the space clean before & after. Highly recommend & will use them again myself."

"I had to replace a section of my ceiling due to a water leak. The team sectioned off the project so the dust didn't spread to the rest of the house. The work was absolute flawless perfection. You can't tell there was a repair. If I had to fund something negative to say is they work on a handshake and aren't big on written documentation. If you can live with that, hire these guys. Their response was fast, and they did great work."

"Alex has done a very good job with the ceiling. Alex fixed a large hole in the ceiling. I was concerned that the repair would be too obvious after it was done. However, the job was perfect. I didn't see much different compared to the original."

"My house looks so good! The ladies were professional and kind. Really paid attention to detail, got the spiderwebs under the cabinets and did the floor boards and all the other things you'd expect. The previous two things stick out to me because they were driving me up the wall. Gabriel always responded quickly to my inquiries and is also very professional. Will hire XtraMaid again."

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.
