"Mark came to our home to put a drop ceiling in, and he was finished in just a few hours. He was extremely professional and very helpful in starting to plan future projects with us. We are trying to get a lot of projects done in our home at once, and this company is the ONLY one who hasn't given us any grief. I would highly recommend using Deschenes Acoustics for all your drop ceiling needs. I wish he did floors and plumbing, too! lol."

"I needed my entryway stairs and porches replaced due to age. I found MMP Construction here on Angie’s list, and contacted them through the website. Matt, the owner, called me back the next day and we arranged a time for him to come and give me an estimate. He showed up exactly when he said he would, and emailed me the estimate the next day. When I hired him, he told me upfront that it would be a while before he could start due to an ongoing project he was working on. I appreciated that. When the time came for him to start, there were some delays, mainly weather related, and he was very conscientious about calling me and letting me know what was going on and when to expect them. Although the project took longer than I expected to be finished, I am very happy with the finished product. Matt is excellent at communication. He took care of all permits, and arranged all inspections. His crew was always on time. They did an excellent job cleaning up after they were done, and the finished project was fantastic. I would definitely recommend MMP Construction, and would not hesitate to use them again in the future."

"Working with Derek and his team was great. The ceiling repair was being paid for by the HOA master insurance carrier, and I was so thankful Derek was willing to take the job, despite knowing that the payment process was going through insurance, and was delayed. He was very kind, patient, understanding, timely with replies, and always followed through with his word. He actually restored my faith that there are honest contractors out there. His quote was more than fair, and his team traveled like 2, 2.5 hours for the job. His guys were always on time, very personable, and professional. They also went above and beyond by painting the walls, even though that wasn't part of the quote. Overall, Derek & his team are very trustworthy, reliable, fair, and all around kind. I would hands down call them again & refer them, especially because there are a lot of dishonest contractors out there. Thanks Derek & team! Cheers!"

"Bob was great. Very professional. I am very pleased with the quality of the repairs on the cabinet doors and the ceiling. He was also very straightforward about the limits of what could be done with one of the repairs that was very delicate work. He impressed me a honest and hardworking. And a good value. Worth every penny."

"We hired Bob to do a closet renovation for our master bedroom and he was excellent!  We have a 40+ year-old 3-br, 2-bath cape and the closet in the master bedroom opened up into the eaves of the house. My husband and I had approximately 7 feet of hanging space for both of us. There was a single door and no light and no storage at all. The only existing light was a bare light bulb way inside attached to one of the joists which was less than ideal.  As a result, we both had clothing scattered throughout the house in other closets.
In addition to the closet, we were also having insulation done by another contractor. Bob was excellent when it came to working  around the other contractor's schedule.  Bob came in and did the demo of the closet, opened up an access hole in our ceiling so the insulation contractors could get into the attic, and created a second door opening on December 20th and 21st. Since we have 3 very curious cats, Bob also attached a sheet of plywood over the new door opening so the little fur balls wouldn't get in there and cause trouble.
Bob came back in early January, after the insulation guys were done, and started construction. He added strapping in the closet and did the framing.  He hired a subcontractor (Progressive Drywall of Nashua) to hang sheetrock and do mudding and taping. Prior to the drywall guys coming in, Bob came to the house and laid down drop cloths on our rugs and put plastic sheeting over our bedroom furniture to minimize dust. 
When the drywall guys were done, my husband and I painted the closet. Then Bob came back and installed the new closet doors and hardware, baseboards, door moldings and installed the new lights and switches and also did our bathroom light/fan and switches.
Since we were changing the electrical service in the closet and we've seen some funky electrical issues in this house, he pulled a permit and brought in his uncle who is a master electrician. In addition to the closet, we also had a fan for our upstairs bathroom installed. While his uncle was in the bathroom doing his thing, Bob was up in the attic hooking up the fan to the exhaust, so having both of them worked out very well.
He was also great about handling an issue I threw at him. Our bedroom door was not installed properly. As a result, the doorjamb where the door latches was not plumb and the door didn?t latch which drove me nuts. He was able to fix the issue in less than an hour and we were happy to pay a little extra just to have that done. 
Bob was always punctual, professional and very personable ? he has a great sense of humor. He cleaned up at the end of each day (including vacuuming!) and communicated with us throughout the whole process so we knew what was going on. He answered any questions we had and was able to explain things to us in a way we?d understand.  We were able to bounce ideas off of each other and he came up with some very creative solutions. 
We wanted to have access into the eaves so Bob framed an opening in the back of the closet, then he added trim and we had decided to use MDF to cover the opening (and for shelves). We were trying to figure out how to attach the MDF so that it could be easily removed in case we wanted to use the eaves for storage. Bob came up with the idea to use magnets like you?d use on cabinets and it worked brilliantly!  We can pop the panel off and easily replace it in a matter of seconds.
We now have a bright, clean, roomy closet with plenty of hanging space and storage for the both of us (including my shoes). Bob was great to work with and we look forward to working with him on future projects.

FAQs for acoustic ceiling tiles install projects in Shirley, MA

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.
