"Amazing job by Mudslingers. We had some plaster ceiling in our 105 year old house begin to crack and partially collapse. Contacted Mudslingers and they demo'ed the remaining plaster and replaced it with sheetrock. The work also included removing two ceiling fixtures (one ceiling fan and a chandelier) and they replaced them after ceiling work was complete. The entire quoting, scheduling, and onsite services were amazing. Obtained a quote from them that was less expensive than the other two contractors we contacted. Scheduling communication was very clear and well laid out between various stages of the project (demo/sheetrock/mud/sanding), and the project finished up way ahead of schedule. During the project we received multiple phone and text message updates from the team, and all of our questions during the project were responded to within minutes (even on a Sunday evening). As someone who purchased a 105 year old house a few years ago, we've hired nearly a dozen contractors for various updates around the house. But Mudslingers is easily the best experience we've had. Definitely an A+ experience"

"We tried taping and muding our entire remodel ourselves. It wasnâ t turning out great. Steve came in and explained everything that would need to be done without judgement. Price was fair and he did an excellent job fixing our mess. Would definitely recommend Ceplecha drywall."

"Andrew was wonderful! Very professional. He repaired the ceiling so well you can't see where the damage was in the first place. He cleaned up after each visit and left no trace of dust/debris. His quote was accurate and very reasonable. I would use him again for any job around the house and will share his information with my neighbors. He was that good."

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.
