"They did an excellent and clean job. The price is awesooome!!! I started by doing the ceiling and ended up remodeling other places in my home. I gave the contact information to my office maintenance manager and he was delighted with the work they did on the ceiling at my job."

"Couldn't be happier.  I had (2) ladies come to the house, Johanna and Irma.  When I get my regular service set up (which i will be, because they did awesome!)  I hope to be able to request these (2) gals, because they rocked.  I had my house cleaned by a totally different company last month and paid double the amount and they didn't even touch the quality cleaning this company did in 2/3 the time!  My bathrooms, kitchen and floors are spotless!  They vacuumed my couch, did my windows, dusted and cleaned ceilings, cleaned in my microwave, cleaned stainless steel appliances.  And my house smells so fresh, not chemical fresh, just clean!  There cleaning supplies seemed gentle as there are no harsh fumes.   I WILL be using Hortensia based off of today.  I will also be using them for my office in the future.  THANK YOU HORTENSIA :DDDDD

"I contacted Olford Construction to repair the drywall caused by a water leak in the ceiling. The plumber had to cut a hole in the ceiling to reach the damaged pipe. Quran Olford, the contractor, was excellent. He arrived punctually as we had discussed. Mr. Olford repaired the drywall, sanded and painted the ENTIRE ceiling area. The work was done to perfection and at a very reasonable cost! Another contractor had quoted me three times more! Quran was very neat, no paint drippings and left my home clean. I appreciated his attention to details. To repair the drywall and paint; Quran had to remove a ceiling light. He carefully replaced it. He respected my home ad property!Quran Olford is professional, personable and punctual. He completed the project on schedule and on budget! I will definitely hire him again and will recommend him to friends as well as neighbors. His phone number is saved in phone! Great job!"

"I needed my apartment cleaned because my ceiling was replaced and a bunch of dust and leftover sheet rock was on the floor. Silvana and her team did a very good job cleaning the apartment and took out all the garbage along with removing an old mattress that was there for a while. If I ever need help cleaning again I will definitely call them up. Not to mention they are also very honest. Thank you!!"

FAQs for acoustic ceiling tiles install projects in Princeton, NJ

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.
