"This father-and-son team is the real deal for popcorn ceiling removal. They do phenomenal work at an extremely affordable price! Other companies are charging double to triple the price, and one told us we had to take everything out of the house. With their technique, we did not have to take anything out of the house. Willford and his son respect your home, are meticulous and very detailed, and clean up every day before leaving. After they finished, our ceilings looked so good, they looked like they had already been painted! We are still amazed at how good our ceilings look. Fast Drywall does awesome work! I wish I could upload the pictures we took of our ceilings but Angi does not allow us to do it. They are super! I highly recommend Fast Drywall Repair!!"

"I couldn’t be happier with how my basement remodel turned out! From start to finish, the team was professional, communicative, and incredibly detail-oriented. They helped transform what used to be an ok man cave to a custom at home personal sports bar!! The craftsmanship is top-notch —lighting, and trim work are all flawless. They also stayed right on schedule and within budget, which is rare these days. I especially appreciated how they communicated and was not thrown off by the ongoing questions and changes that was thrown at them. Now we have a beautiful new living area that’s perfect for family gatherings and guests. I’d absolutely recommend this company to anyone looking to remodel their basement or any part of their home. Outstanding work! We will be giving them a call in a few months to remodel our master bathroom. Great guys not only as contractors but in general also made new friends!!!"

"I thought Moran was a very nice guy who did what he said he was going to do in a prompt and professional manner.
There were some delays on the cabinet doors, but that was because they were trying to match the new ones to my existing ones.
The crown molding helped to make my cabinets look really beautiful and of course I was happy to get a new cabinet for my 30" oven. I would definitely recommend Moran- he really knows his business and is pleasant to work with."

"If I could give ten stars, I would. Ace completely rebuilt our old and rotting front deck and the results were everything we wanted and more. The work crews completely rebuilt the deck in 3 days and everyone has complimented the work done with glowing praise. Even my most discerning friends love the work. Ace was extremely professional and the price quoted was very reasonable considering the cost of materials and amount of work involved. The crews were friendly, hard-working, and cleaned up the job site beautifully. We will be using them for additional projects going forward."

"Calvin and his crew worked their magic turning our dark, scary basement into a bright, beautiful apartment for my aging mother who recently moved in with us. Even though we already had an idea of the floor plan we wanted, Calvin made some design suggestions, such as adding a pony wall to incorporate a support beam. This addition gave the apartment a separate office space which my mother loves! If any issues arose during construction, Calvin addressed concerns quickly and satisfactorily. He was easy to contact via phone call, text, or email, and he responded immediately. He and his whole crew were professional, and their attention to detail was exceptional. My mother can’t wait to move into her new apartment, just in time for the holidays! We couldn’t be happier with the work of MWR, LLC!"

"I contacted Raven less about 2 days prior to having the work performed. Raven did not only respond immediately, and came to do an estimate next day, he had the best price and was able to do the work immediately. Raven explained in detail what he was going to do and why and I am very happy with the deck renovation. Will definitely hire again and recommend him to all friends and family members."

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.
