"Mr. Lewis always delivers. We presented a challenge that included repairs of our garage in addition to painting. He thoroughly explained the required work and process. Gave us quote and time estimate for completion, his price was by far the lowest and we can't say enough about his quality of work and professionnalism. We ended up adding a bedroom to the original request and it was a great decision. Our house from the bedroom to the garage looks like a new home. Mr. Lewis is personal and trustworthy, he managed his time wisely and will explain why certain actions within the process must be given some time to get the right dryness/consistency. Very happy with this job and we will call him for the next projects."

"This is one of the best contractors that I have ever dealt with, always on time and totally prepared each time he came to our home. Fantastic job absolutely perfect, listened closely to what I wanted done and did exactly what I had asked for and more. He found an additional problem and fixed it without additional cost. This was quoted as a 3 day project and it is was finished on time. he was extremely conscientious, and the walls and furniture were so expertly covered there were no spills or damage at all. Alex is the one you want to hire!!!!"
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.
