"Went great! Rich was responsive, punctual, and they did great work (it was a difficult situation because the ceiling slants down over the stairwell and then connects to three surrounding walls--hard to explain but they did a great job!) They are very fairly priced--I shopped around. It's just a pricey endeavor. :)"

"Words cannot express how happy I am that I found Matt to help me paint my new home! Not only did he finish the job of painting three rooms ceilings, trim, and walls in less than two days, he quoted me an extremely fair price and he did an amazing job. Matt took pride in his work, wanted to make sure everything was perfect, and that I was one hundred percent satisfied with the job. I have now found my handy man for life! If you need any work done in your home (because he does a lot more than paint) I highly recommend him. Thank you so much Matt for everything!"

"This last effort went beyond my expectations. The work was done faster that I expected, and the workmanship was A+. I was concerned with the difficulty of leveling out concrete columns during the pour. At several thousand lbs per column, it would be impossible to correct any out of plumb conditions. He was careful to plum and secure each column before pouring, then checked for plumb after the poor. All were perfect. I will be doing additional work in the near future to replace the beams on the upper deck in order to repair poor workmanship from a contractor 10 years ago.
This is the 4th large project Norse has done for me. The largest project was building out a laundry room on the lower level. That effort involved tearing down walls, building new walls, installing doors, flooring and installing new plumbing for the washer, dryer and new sink. The new laundry room measures 9 X 12, great lighting and a long folding table. My wife and I are happy campers. I was also impressed that he cleaned up each evening before he left to minimize dust and debris from the work area.

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.
