"Luke's drywall man, Hymie, did an excellent patch job ( about a 4 X 6 foot area) on our basement ceiling! He matched the popcorn texture with the rest of the ceiling perfectly! I would highly recommend 3rd Generation Drywall."

All this work took place while I was living out of state and was completed by the time if moved in. Omar did an excellent job and trusted him with our new house."

"We hired Juan to paint our ceiling, walls, and baseboards. He did a great job. Juan also fixed some drywall patches around the house. He was very personable. He did a great job explaining the process of what was going to be done and how much everything was going to cost. I highly recommend him. We will definitely be using Juan again for future projects."

Customers say: Quick response
"Best drywall work that I have had done in any of my homes in the past few years. Excellent customer service, finished the job on time, and pricing was great. We had a fair amount of big seams to fix as we took out a wall and scraped the entire downstairs ceilings popcorn off. They made easy work of a big job. Already planning on hiring them for another up coming project. 10/10 recommend"

"We have used Ace for several jobs over the years: Deck rebuild, ceiling repair and most recently, interior painting. They do outstanding work in a timely professional manner. Mark responds quickly to any questions or concerns. The crew really hustle and will finish your job with no cutting corners, on time, and make minimal mess and clean up after themselves. Each job they've done we've been thrilled with the results. I would not consider anyone else for any of the type of work they do. You will not be disappointed!"

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.
