"Rey and his team were outstanding! They were able to schedule the work quickly. They painted multiple rooms and ceilings for us. Because he had a crew, Rey was completed the entire job in one day. The attention to detail and his quality of his work was unsurpassed. Additionally has price points where at or below all of the other quotes we requested. As long as I live in the Chicago area I will never look for painting anyone to complete painting for me other than Rey! 👍🏼👌🏼"

"Wonderful experience with the brothers. I had my dining room, family room, main hallway upstairs and first floor, plus bathroom. They were both quick and efficient. They were strong communicators and provided a quick response for every question. I would definitely hire again for my next painting job and would recommend to those up in lake county."

"Very professional! Huck took his time when he came to look at my ceilings and explained what he saw, the cause of the damage and what my options were. He is an extremely hard worker, taking pride in the job he does. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Huck was very respectful of my home and its contents. Each of the 3 times he was here, everything was cleaned up before he left, making me a happy camper! I can’t say enough positive things about the job Huck did. As a retired teacher, I give Huck and Kallos Custom Interiors an A for the professional job done. I would not hesitate calling on them again, and will recommend him to my family and friends. Thank you, Huck!!"

"Mario was GREAT to work with. He was personable and honest and the quality of work excellent. His crew painted the exterior of an over 125 year old wooden house that was in bad shape and it looks wonderful. His crew also painted the interior ceilings of my house that had water damage in two different areas. His crew were quiet clean and respectful taking great care and making sure everything was completely to my satisfaction. Will only be using Mars Painting in the future."

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.
