"Joe Felix of Perfect Patch was very professional. He visited the project twice in person; initially for the estimate and again before he started, to go over details. The popcorn removal, ceiling repairs and painting were completed while we were out of town. Coming home to smooth ceilings was an amazing treat! Ripples in the ceiling were gone! Edges were clean and evenly caulked! The painting was flawless. And the house was clean! This really was the perfect patch....thank you Joe and Abbey for treating our house like it was yours."

"Nick and his professional dedicated team completed our ceiling project in one day! They were very professional, courteous and thorough. Their work they done was more than satisfactory and better than expected! They did have some challenging issues but were able to work through those appropriately. I would hire them again with any future projects and highly recommend their services to anyone searching for contractors for home improvement projects!"

Small jobs welcome
"APlus did a fantastic job for us. Remodeled a full bath and a small room off the kitchen. These rooms had OLD paneling and sagging floors. Carlos' crew showed up and tore those rooms down to the studs and floor joists. Replaced everything and both rooms look beautiful. The crew worked unbelievably effectively and were very courteous. The work was completed in just 2 weeks at an extremely attractive price. This job went so well, we immediately had APlus drywall the walls and ceiling of another room, removing an old fireplace insert in the process. Again, the work was efficiently performed and a great price. Looking at project 3 right now!!! I would recommend APlus for your construction or remodeling jobs."

"We have used Brian twice to remove the textured ceilings in our living room and kitchen/dining room. Both jobs were started and completed as agreed at the agreed price. His crew even repaired a hole in my ceiling due to roof leak that I was unaware of. We are very pleased with his work, our ceilings look great. I will definitely use them again!"

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.
