"Joe Felix of Perfect Patch was very professional. He visited the project twice in person; initially for the estimate and again before he started, to go over details. The popcorn removal, ceiling repairs and painting were completed while we were out of town. Coming home to smooth ceilings was an amazing treat! Ripples in the ceiling were gone! Edges were clean and evenly caulked! The painting was flawless. And the house was clean! This really was the perfect patch....thank you Joe and Abbey for treating our house like it was yours."

"We have used Brian twice to remove the textured ceilings in our living room and kitchen/dining room. Both jobs were started and completed as agreed at the agreed price. His crew even repaired a hole in my ceiling due to roof leak that I was unaware of. We are very pleased with his work, our ceilings look great. I will definitely use them again!"

Small jobs welcome
"APlus did a fantastic job for us. Remodeled a full bath and a small room off the kitchen. These rooms had OLD paneling and sagging floors. Carlos' crew showed up and tore those rooms down to the studs and floor joists. Replaced everything and both rooms look beautiful. The crew worked unbelievably effectively and were very courteous. The work was completed in just 2 weeks at an extremely attractive price. This job went so well, we immediately had APlus drywall the walls and ceiling of another room, removing an old fireplace insert in the process. Again, the work was efficiently performed and a great price. Looking at project 3 right now!!! I would recommend APlus for your construction or remodeling jobs."

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.
