Can you cut the grid around lighting in my Kensington space?

Yes — lighting and HVAC positions drive the Kensington grid plan, so cutouts come out right.

Can you install an acoustic ceiling in a basement in Kensington?

Do you repair existing drop ceilings in Kensington?

Acoustical Ceiling Installation Kensington

Acoustical ceiling installation in Kensington

Ducts, wiring and plumbing disappear behind an Kensington drop ceiling without losing access — and acoustic tile delivers noise control drywall cannot match. In Kensington we install suspended T-bar grid ceilings and acoustic tile systems for basements and mixed-use spaces, squared to the room and levelled to a professional standard. Kensington is this established Northwest community where reno, repair and ceiling drywall are common, so basement ceiling height here varies enough that we confirm grid drop clearance on site before quoting. We cover Kensington, Albany, Athlone, Baranow and Northwest, 7 days a week.
