"Matthew removed the damaged ceiling and showed me the damage that was caused by the toilet leak in the apartment above mine. He did the removal of old, damaged ceiling really quickly and was careful to keep it sealed in plastic bags for removal. He moved up the appointment by 4 days, which I appreciated. The replacement of new ceiling went very well and he made sure that the ceiling was finished with the same orange peel effect. Job well done. Hard worker, very courteous."

"ProFinish Drywall was quick to respond to all communications. Gave us an excellent outcome on a difficult job (removing a popcorn ceiling and painting over very old drywall) at a reasonable price. Luan is a hard worker, very efficient and a pleasure to work with. They also left the room nice and clean. We look forward to working with them again."

"We used Fiefia Drywall for a drywall repair to our ceiling and couldn?t be happier with the results. They were prompt, professional, and affordable. The finished product looks great, and they communicated well throughout the process. I would absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone needing drywall work."

"Gabor did a great job repairing some drywall. He did a fine job of matching texture on ceiling which was a different than wall. Did a great job matching wall as well. Also, he did baseboards in a closet and they now match well with the rest of the room. Cleaned up after the job. Very friendly and easy to work with."

"We recommend Smith Remodeling without hesitation. Lisa and Mark Smith and their long-time crew do excellent work at a reasonable price and take pride in it, as if your home were their own. Their finish work is outstanding – as good or better than new construction. They refurbished our vintage 1980 condo from top to bottom and made it look brand new, ready for us to move in. They sealed and painted ceilings, removed wallpaper, patched drywall, painted all walls, doors and casings, put in new baseboards, tore up tile and carpet, leveled the slab and installed vinyl planking and soundproofing. Along the way, at our request, they added a pocket door, painted the lanai, reset can lights in the kitchen and replaced wire shelves. They kept the site organized and left it neat and tidy. Dealing with Lisa was a pleasure. She worked with our association to meet all its requirements. She sent us to a source for flooring that saved us considerably over the retail stores we had been shopping. If we couldn’t reach her, she usually returned our calls within an hour – incredible in her business. She was responsive, direct and flexible even when resolving issues that inevitably pop up in big projects. Her original quote reflected concern about wallpaper that had been painted over in the kitchen. Turned out there were three layers there and another unexpected one in the bathroom, all of which took much more time to remove, but because she identified the potential problems up front, surprise was kept to a minimum. She also generously adjusted her rate for the extra work to keep the additional cost down. Before we hired Smith, we visited several previous clients and got the same story over and over: Superb work, reliable people, a fair price. Most had had Smith back for more work. We hope to do so too. Believe the glowing reviews. This is a great company."

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.
