"The worst customer service ever. Took 16 weeks to get our windows from order date. Could not get anyone to return our call. Called main office and still got no where. The windows are finally installed now but won’t ever use this company again due to the lack of respect for customers and misleading information on timeframe."

"Will removed ceramic tile and carpet on my main floor and installed my new LVP flooring. Will was on time and the job was done on schedule.

Will also replaced some drywall from a water leak and did a great job blending it in with the wall. I would highly recommend Will for any job.

Yes, tongue and groove ceilings cost $4 to $10 per square foot installed, while standard drywall ceilings cost less. The price difference exists because wood ceiling materials are more expensive than drywall, and installation requires specialized carpentry skills. Despite the higher investment, many homeowners choose tongue and groove for its distinctive appearance and the warmth it brings to a space, qualities that standard drywall cannot replicate.
A standard tongue and groove ceiling installation shouldn't take more than a full day for professional contractors. However, installation time may increase for larger rooms or spaces with irregular shapes. If your project includes removing existing ceiling materials or making repairs, this will extend the timeline. For DIY installations, expect the process to take longer, especially if you're new to working with these materials.
Pine is the most economical choice for tongue and groove ceilings, with material costs ranging from $1 to $8 per square foot. Its popularity stems from wide availability, ease of working, and receptiveness to various finishes. Pine offers a good balance between affordability and appearance, making it the go-to option for budget-conscious homeowners. For slightly different looks at similar price points, consider cypress ($1 to $9 per square foot) or poplar ($2 to $5 per square foot).
Yes, tongue and groove ceilings can work in moisture-prone areas if you select appropriate materials and finishes. Cedar naturally resists moisture and insects, making it ideal for bathrooms and outdoor areas. Whatever wood you choose, proper sealing is essential to protect against humidity.
For bathroom installations, ensure adequate ventilation through properly sized exhaust fans. The right combination of wood selection, finish, and ventilation will help your ceiling withstand moisture challenges.
For routine maintenance, dust your tongue and groove ceiling with a soft cloth or microfiber duster. When deeper cleaning is needed, use products specifically formulated for finished wood, avoiding excessive moisture. Check periodically for any signs of finish wear, particularly in high-humidity areas. If your ceiling begins to look dull, you may need to reapply sealant according to the product manufacturer's recommendations to maintain protection and appearance.
