"Mr. Brandon Holliday did an excellent job repairing the damaged to my textured ceiling in my bathroom. You cannot tell any repair was made. The ceiling damage was caused by a leak in the apartment above mine. Mr. Brandon friendly and efficient. Plus he left the bathroom spotless before leaving. So I highly recommend Holliday Texture Service to anyone needing drywall work. I only disappointment was that he didn’t do any other kinds of construction work. By the way, the ceiling patch in the picture hasn’t dried yet."

"Our bathroom turned out both attractive and very functional for my husband, who is wheelchair-bound. A great deal of thought was given to the best way to achieve our goal without completely turning our lives upside down during the process. Jeff and his crew were very responsive to any concerns we had and we would highly recommend Sarasota's Best Construction and Flooring to anyone needing a remodeling project of any type."

"This company did an amazing job!!! Pedro was great to work with. He showed up on time and did a great job. Considering the mess when you have a popcorn ceiling removed, re-textured and painted, while living in the home, they cleaned up extremely well, far surpassing my expectations. Would definitely hire them again!!"

"Very knowledgeable, kind, and experienced. Would hire again anytime. He skimmed my ceilings with 2 coats, sprayed texture, primed and painted to cover a really ugly swirl pattern. He was very neat and kept in constant communication."

"We had a broken ceiling in the garage, which Roman and his son repaired on the same day. We are very impressed with Roman's work; he was extremely clean and professional. Both were very friendly and helpful. Thank you for your great work."
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.
