"My experience with TPR was pretty much perfect! They bid the project and came in right on budget. They remodeled my bathroom and redid the flooring in my house. Everything came out beautifully and the bathroom design looks great thanks to the creative eye of my project manager. We completely gutted it and moved things around. It really does look great! I love everything about it. I highly recommend TPR to all of you. They are honest, reliable, caring of your possessions, and have great work ethic. The crew was on time every day and respected our house and our family. Thanks guys!:::)"

"We hired them to remodel our bedroom, great job, very reliable, highly recommended."
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.
