Level grid, clean tile lines and framed soffits that line up with lights, diffusers and sprinkler heads.
Or call (973) 392-4979
Ceilings are where a lot of trades meet: lights, diffusers, sprinklers, speakers and access panels all have to land in the right place. We install acoustical tile (ACT) and T-bar suspended ceiling systems in commercial spaces across New York and New Jersey, along with the metal framing for soffits, bulkheads and curved ceiling features.
A good ceiling starts above it. Hangers, main runners and cross tees have to be laid out to the reflected ceiling plan so tile lines are straight and devices are centered. Our crews take that layout seriously because the ceiling is one of the first things people notice in a finished space.

How it works
A short, predictable sequence the GC can plan around.
We lay out the grid from the RCP and check it against lights, diffusers and heads before hangers go in.
Hangers and main runners are installed level and at the specified spacing.
Cross tees and perimeter trim go in while the other trades set their devices into the grid.
Tile is dropped in after above-ceiling work is closed out, and the ceiling is checked for line and level.
Ceilings come near the end of a project, when the schedule is tight and every trade is trying to finish. We coordinate with the GC on when above-ceiling inspections are done so tile does not go in early and come back out.
For feature ceilings, our crews frame curved soffits, domes and circular medallions in metal. Those are the details that make a lobby or hall stand out, and they need careful layout from the start.

Open web bar joists and cold-formed C-joists both carry floors and roofs, but they behave very differently on the jobsite. Here is how a framing crew thinks about choosing and coordinating each one.
