"The ceiling in my Great room had major cracks (tape pealing off, corner beads cracked) that required major work. Due to the height (19 feet) scaffolding was required and the job took several days. In addition they repaired the tray ceiling in the master as well as cracks in the kitchen. Fabio does excellent work and would use him again (already have). The one minor recommendation is for a better clean up. We all know dry wall is messy but that would really help. Thanks Fabio

"Silvana and her team are amazing. They arrived and did not stop moving until our house was spotless. They cleaned the ceiling lights and under every object on every shelf. They got the grout on the kitchen floor white and all the grease off the stove. They did a great job. I'd highly recommend."

"Anush and his team were absolutely amazing, and our porch turned out better than we expected thanks to his ideas/recommendations. The attention to detail/pride they take in their work truly stand out and far exceeded our experiences with contractors in the past. One of my favorite parts is how much I genuinely love coming home now. It completely changed the look and feel of the front of our house, and every time I pull into the driveway it makes me happy to see it. I will absolutely be recommending AVSTEP to anyone planning renovations or building a home. We already have several more projects planned for our house in the coming months, and without question we’ll be using Anush and his team again. It’s such a great feeling to know we now have a contractor we genuinely trust and can confidently call whenever we need work done. Even our neighbors have been commenting on how beautiful the front of our house looks and what an incredible job they did. Below are the before and after pictures"

"Your search is over! This IS the guy. If you’re still looking for a contractor for your renovation project you can stop searching. We hired Matt and his team for our renovations and we could not be happier. We put in new floors throughout, a brand new kitchen including cabinets, countertops, sink, plumbing and appliances, new light fixtures and ceiling fans and painted all the ceilings, walls and woodwork. The entire project was done exactly to our specifications; came in on budget with absolutely no surprises and was completed earlier than we could have imagined. Matt’s entire team is totally professional. They arrive on time every day and clean up at the end of the day before leaving. So, stop looking and get your project started with The Finish Guys. We guarantee you will be thrilled with the results."

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.
