Frequently Asked Questions

Suspended grid (t-bar grid, drop ceiling grid, etc.) is made specifically to hang from your true ceiling or ceiling joists, allowing sufficient space above the drop ceiling grid to hide duct work, plumbing, electrical and other unsightly but necessary utilities placed at the ceiling.

Most suspended ceiling tiles (unless they are very specialized and expensive) will not noticeably change in-room acoustics (NRC) or reduce the amount of pass-through noise (STC) in your home or business. But we do have options that dramatically improve the acoustical performance of any drop ceiling. And when paired with the right tiles, ta-da! A budget-friendly, beautiful acoustical ceiling.

Acoustic ceiling panels serve as barriers to block sound from traveling to adjacent rooms and also as a means to reduce the noise within a room. As they soften, remove, and diffuse sounds, acoustic panels help create a more pleasant environment, free of echoes and bothersome noise.

One of the disadvantages of acoustic tiles is that they are not waterproof, although resistant to certain levels of humidity. The good thing is that they are easily replaced.
