"Jeff Desatnik repaired a water damaged ceiling in a bedroom of our 95 y/o home, along with installing a ceiling fan. The work quality was excellent. He was professional, and his experience and skill was evident when the job was completed."

"Kris and his crew were excellent! They repaired a ceiling that had been repaired prior and made it look so much better and not even noticeable. While they were on site I asked for a quote on another project and Kris gave me a great price and performed the service while on site! Would highly recommend this company!"

"Dover is a long standing company that we reached out to based on reputation alone. They are a well oiled machine. They did not disappoint. Our 1950s home now has a beautiful and very low maintenance 3 season room that is seamlessly tied into our brick home. Our completely remodeled kitchen with Amish built hickory cabinets and modern finishes is outstanding. The skilled tradesman did a fabulous job. The designer and project manager were easy to work with and kept the project moving. Would highly recommend!"

"Such a nice young man! There was another gentleman who helped. Both are great workers who did a perfect job of repairing the hole in our ceiling which was caused by a leak from the upstairs shower. If we ever need another drywall repair I would definitely call Tamer."

"I had some water damage done from a leaky pipe in my bathroom. That damaged some ceiling and walls in some rooms also. The crew came in and fixed the pipes and replaced all the ceiling and walls. Everything looks amazing and my family and I couldn't be happier."

"Kris did an excellent job from the initial quote, setting up a time that convenient for me, to showing up on time when he said he would be here. Kris repaired my leaky roof, replaced rotted wood, and painted my ceiling. It looked wonderful and matched the rest of the house’s ceiling. Kris was very careful to cover my belongings and he did a great job cleaning up. The best part, all this was done at a VERY fair price."
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.
