"We interviewed many painters to renovate an old house. Bici Brothers was very thorough with their bid; we had not even received bids from some contractors we spoke to after their visit. Not only was his bid reasonable, Eddie was able to remove wallpaper in two rooms, repair some damage to walls in each, paint several rooms in entirely, other rooms we painted an alcove or two of the four walls. He completed the project just as he had promised on time."

"She came in with a team of 4 and they really did a great job cleaning my home from top to bottom. My mirrors shined wonderfully and I could actually see clearly out of my windows! They cleaned windowsills and my ceiling fans and dusted, vacuumed and overall did a really good job. They came in on time and finished about a half hour early. The price was fair especially for all of the work that was done. And my stove looked brand new. I was so impressed that I am having them come back on a regular basis until my place sells."

"Above and Beyond Construction recently completed an almost whole-house renovation including a family room addition, a fully remodeled kitchen, relocated stairways, three bathrooms, and a finished basement. The addition seamlessly blends with the original spaces, making it feel like a natural extension of my home. The work is detailed and outstanding to the point that visitors do not know where the original 1911 house ends and the 2024 house begins. The highly skilled craftsmen matched the woodwork details of the original house to the new addition perfectly. Chester is easy to work with, has a positive outlook, and a good sense of humor. He will work with you to answer questions, provide suggestions, and address concerns throughout the renovation process. Above and Beyond transformed my little frame house from an outdated, decades-neglected, design and décor calamity left by the prior owners into an elegant space that honors tradition yet transcends centuries."

"The duo was very efficient in what they cleaned. At the time, everything seemed fine for the price, but over the next day or so we noticed that there was dust on the ceiling fans/lights, around the fridge, beneath the stove, and there was lint behind the dryer, debris in the corners in the pantry and some drawers. We were expecting these things to be cleaned for a move-in cleaning service, but maybe it depends on the company."

"Our bedroom ceiling caved in recently. Needless to say, it was quite a mess with insulation debris and drywall pieces everywhere. Taulant responded quickly through Angie’s List after I requested a quote and called me right away. He was courteous, came by the next day to inspect, and gave us a very competitive quote. We hired him, and he and his brother did a great job. They showed up on time, were discreet and professional, and finished the ceiling repair, drywall, and painting in two and a half days. Communication was smooth, and we were very happy with the results. Minimal paperwork made the process easy. The ceiling looks great, and they handled all the debris and cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend Taulant for any drywall job and greatly appreciate the awesome work he and his brother did for us."

"I was not overly impressed with the Angelo because when I mentioned I had purchased 8 hours, he said he works like a two man crew so he did not think I needed the whole 8 hours. While the shelving was put up nicely and secure there were areas where he misjudged a screw hole and had to redrill but he never back to patch the hole he made initially. I had to hire another crew to come in and replaster to prep for a painting job because it was not done completely or sanded down for painting. Angelo did not complete the entire 8 hours because I decided not to bring him back for any additional work.

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.
