"We had a great experience! Javier was onsite and hands-on with the project. He was also extremely responsive. He ensured everything was well coordinated and had his crew working around the clock to minimize the amount of time we had to be closed. I have had work done in my home that took months and this was an extensive remodel done in a couple days - amazing!! The workmanship was also top quality and Javier made sure we were satisfied with everything that was done. I would highly recommend!"

"Kitchen and flooring was wonderful. Bathrooms had continual plumbing issues. However, Russ came back out each time to rectify the problems until it was completely resolved. Russ is very responsive and easy to work with. Every job can have some hick-ups, but Russ kept at it until it was satisfactory."

"Two young ladies came Memorial Day and did our cleaning. They periodically checked to see if their service was up to standard. When I indicated areas that had not been done, they were prompt to see it was cleaned. In general they did a good job but needed some guidance. We are scheduled for another cleaning in a month and hopefully we'll be able to have a more thorough cleaning and attention to detail then. The young ladies were very nice, respectful as well as their manager which we appreciated."

FAQs for acoustic ceiling tiles install projects in Manhattan, IL

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.
