"I had wood rot in a hall closet from the ceiling to the subfloor. Brad and his guys replaced the rotted wood and sheet rock in one day. Then came back after the first coat of mud had tried to make it pretty. Very reasonable price and quality work."

"The team team came to remove the popcorn ceilings were professional and very conscientious. They arrived on time and did the removal of the whole three bedroom house in one day. They came back, again on time, the next day to paint the ceilings. They did a great job with cleanup. This is a great value for the money."

"I first hired Rob for a small fix back in 2023, talking to him during that small fix he informed me he does big renovations jobs. When my wife and I hired him for a major renovation, floors, drywall, ceiling, reconfigure kitchen etc we could not be happier. He made our home beautiful and work with all of our requests along the way. And this was not a small job. Rob is very particular and love his detail on the work. He is very committed and worked late many nights we werenâ t there. I can recommend Rob enough and will continue to use him for any jobs in the future. Thank you again Rob. You made our dream home come true."

"I couldn't have asked for better service from better people. We are a military family and needed last minute cleaning services for a move. Our home is large, 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, double ovens in kitchen, back patio, 2 car garage, etc. Our home was spotless and cleaned with such detail! I wish we would've found them sooner. They are very personable and professional and put a lot of care into what they do. 10/10 recommend!"

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.
