Alternatives to Acoustic Ceiling tile
I am doing a rehab on a rental unit that currently has the type of drop down ceiling tile that you see in office spaces. This ceiling tile is there to cover up some ugly electrical work. For me to do a full rehab and re-run the electrical does not make economic sense for the space I have.
So my options are to keep the drop down ceiling or remove the dropdown ceiling and rerun electrical and repair the drywall, to the tune of $2,000-$3,000. I'm trying to see if there are any drop down ceilings that don't look like crap.
What are some alternatives to the the drop down ceiling tile? I don't want a tenant coming home and feeling like they never left the office.
