"I had Patch Boys come to my home to repair cracks in my walls after having insulation blown in. Tim spent 5 days in my home repairing the walls and Tim did a great job. He was respectful,professional,polite and did a good job cleaning up. I would highly recommend Patch Boys and the owner Al Coger made sure everything was going well."

"We needed to replace a patch of our living room ceiling due to damage from a water leak upstairs. We contacted C&B, who responded and quoted us a price quickly. The price was fair for a multi-day job, they got it done within a week, and they even helped us repaint the ceiling. Very professional, courteous, and trustworthy. We'd strongly recommend!"

"Mark provided a very fair cost estimate for the work to be done in painting a two bedroom apartment and kitchen, including closets. All work was complete and professional, with complete covering by the paint, clean edging and clean-up. I live out of state, so he provided updates via video of work done. He was also accommodating in removing medicine cabinet, taking down and replacing curtains. He did the work himself without sending a team of unknown helpers. I highly recommend his service which was professional and trustworthy. Joe"

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.
