Decorative Ceiling Tile Questions
Which decorative ceiling tile is best for Houston humidity?
PVC faux tin, styrofoam and powder-coated metal tiles all resist moisture and will not rust, which makes them excellent choices for Houston kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and restaurants. Unfinished real tin should be sealed or painted.
Can decorative ceiling tiles go over a popcorn ceiling?
Yes. Lightweight surface mount and styrofoam tiles can be glued over most popcorn ceilings, avoiding the mess and cost of scraping. We inspect the ceiling first to make sure it is sound.
Do I need a drop ceiling grid for decorative tiles?
No. Drop-in tiles need a 2×2 suspended grid, but glue-up and nail-up tiles attach directly to drywall, plaster or a plywood substrate. Many patterns are available in both versions.
Do you install decorative ceiling tiles outside of Houston?
Yes. Ceil Tex serves Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Spring, Kingwood, Pearland, Conroe, Baytown, Galveston, Sealy, Beaumont, Austin, San Antonio and surrounding communities.
