"Patched a 2 ft hole in my kitchen ceiling. Very good work. Without any paint touch-ups, you still have to look closely to even tell where the work was done."

"It was the best experience and the best money I ever spent! I cannot begin to say enough about how pleased I am. I had 3 arches, holes in textured ceiling and an additional room 12 x 24 that needed taped, mudded, and ready to paint. The job was completed in 2 days! This was my first big decision since becoming a widow. It was a big confidence builder for me. Thank you so much ALX! You are awesome!!!!!"

"Excellent. Jeff & Rob repaired wall cracks (2 were doozy) & they painted the interior (ceiling, walls, trim& doors). The paint job wasn’t easy with a vaulted ceiling. They also replaced a very old, flimsy stair & loft railing. Their attention to detail was fantastic & my rooms & railing are so beautiful. I’ll always recommend them to friends & co-workers for any projects they may have & I’ll call them again for my next project."

"Cory went above and beyond to remove the old heater/exhaust/fan from my bathroom ceiling and replace it with the new one I had purchased. There were some electrical issues and he called someone to come help with that part of the job. He had to go up into the attic to do some wiring fixes. He also had to do some ceiling dry wall repairs. The cost was reasonable for everything they had to do."

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.
