"CHI has done an excellent job for me and I recommend them without hesitation for any remodeling work. Here's why: My job started out with an entry door replacement, evolved into a pantry expansion, and finally finished with an entire kitchen countertop replacement. I was very pleased with how they worked, the materials they used, and the attention to detail in the workmanship. And they were very responsive, communicated well and frequently, and checked in regularly to make sure the job was getting done right and on time. Each of their craftsmen were highly skilled, knew what they were doing, and didn't cut any corners. And each one was friendly and courteous to boot! I very much appreciated their attention to protecting the rest of the house, and they cleaned up the jobsite every single day at the end of their work day. Remodels are disruptive, no matter what. But this was about the least painful I've experienced. I have worked with a lot of contractors. CHI is a 10 out of 10."

"Summit Fence and their employees are phenomenal! My project was initially discussed, clarified, estimated (price), confirmed in writing and scheduled to begin in a very reasonable amount of time. I was expecting to have to wait much longer and was pleasantly surprised that I was not having to wait as long as other contractors were estimating. Our job lasted one more day than originally thought, however, considering that the employees had to hand dig near buried utilities in order to avoid any costly damage, I was not bothered in the least with this delay. It was to be expected and appreciated. We were always notified when they arrived in the morning, and the foreman/supervisor (Ryan) made several visits to oversee that the project was being completed according to plan. Communication was NEVER LACKING with this company!!"

"We recently had Good News Home Improvement replace the siding on our house and paint the exterior, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, efficient, and exceeded our expectations. Our Project Manager, Lon, was fantastic—his communication was excellent, keeping us informed every step of the way and addressing any concerns promptly. Both the siding and paint crews were meticulous in their work and showed great care for our property. The siding crew even came up with a creative and beautiful solution to replace brick we had recently removed from the front of the house, which truly enhanced the final look. We received multiple bids for this project with like-for-like improvements, and Good News Home Improvement was by far the most competitive. They estimated two weeks for siding and 3-4 days for painting, but the siding was completed in under four days, and the painting took just under three—far faster than expected without compromising quality. If you're looking for a company that delivers high-quality work, excellent customer service, and great value, I highly recommend Good News Home Improvement!"

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.
