"Nelson was very honest, offered fair pricing and went the extra mile by moving many items that restricted excess to the work area. His work is very high quality and I am very pleased with his craftsmanship. I plan to hire him again."

"The ladies were very nice. I was not happy with the windows that I had to pay $10 each for. I had to go back myself to finish cleaning each window they did. I feel like they were rushing a lot to try to get to the other job they were scheduled for , which didn’t allow them enough time to do a great job as promised. Although they ended missing the other job , they still rushed , and skip on mopping the baby ‘a room. I paid $50 for the stove , and I had to clean the from door of the oven myself after they left. They worked really hard nonstop. They just need to improve their quality."

"Linda led her team and the work was professional, on time and outstanding! There was a lot to clean up. This included revamping some of the home including not only making sure the house was spic and span squeaking clean but we painted, re-carpeted, did some plaster and ceiling work. Everyone was courteous, hard-working and top-notch. I highly recommend Linda and LA Cleaning!"

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.
