Category: Ceiling Replacement.

Ceiling replacement involves the systematic removal of a plaster or drywall ceiling that has failed, is structurally compromised, or has already partially or fully collapsed. This service includes demolition and disposal of the existing ceiling, installation of a new drywall ceiling, full finishing, priming, and painting of the new ceiling.

Walls within the affected room are typically painted as part of the process due to finish work required at ceiling-to-wall transitions and corner blending.

Ceiling replacement is offered on a case-by-case basis following an on-site inspection. Typical time to completion ranges from 4 to 8+ days, depending on ceiling height, access, substrate type, and job complexity. The typical starting cost for a ceiling replacement is $9,000–$12,000 per ceiling, with final pricing determined by conditions specific to the home.

Ceiling replacement is considered a capital improvement under New York State tax law. You may download the NYS Sales Tax Exemption form here.

This is a turn-key service. From removal through final paint, we manage all phases of the project.

Failing plaster ceilings should be removed, not drywalled over.
