Customer Testimonial:

We received our product on time and in excellent condition.  Since we were looking for the "copper" tile look in our basement recreation room, I tested the "hammered copper" paint I liked so well on one of the samples you sent; we knew we were going to be very pleased. 

We hired a local contractor to install our grid for us and he was a little skeptical about the panels.  While he installed grid, I spray painted the tiles.  I was especially happy that we could maximize the ceiling height, since the panels are flexible and easy to install.  Cutting the panels to the required sizes was a snap!  Once installed, everyone was extremely impressed, even my contractor.

classy media room installation

Photo Description:

After installing the Ceilume Stratford tiles, this customer painted the entire ceiling with the same color he used on the walls. He then installed crown molding, which covers the "wall angle" grid pieces around the edge. It really ties the room together.

Customer Testimonial:

I just finished my installation of your Ceilume Ceiling Tiles in my media room and the results are stunning! I was originally looking for an alternative to conventional ceiling tiles in terms of design and cost. I was looking at tin ceilings, but was put off by the cost. I am always a bit skeptical when dealing with new products, but I ordered your free samples and read as much as I could online about the Ceilume products. The price advantage is what really hooked me, so I decided to try Ceilume and ordered 100 tiles.

The installation couldn't have been easier. I have dealt with standard ceiling tiles before and remember the dust involved when cutting holes or trimming them to size. With the Ceilume tiles there was no dust and I was able to cut 2 or 3 at a time with a pair of scissors! This was a big time saver.

Once my tiles were in place, I sprayed the entire ceiling the same color as my walls. This made the ceiling grid blend in completely with the tiles so they are almost invisible.

I was originally worried that the tiles might move when a door was opened or closed, but it has never happened. After the ceiling was complete I trimmed the room with crown molding, which appears to support the ceiling at the wall. Everyone who has seen the finished room comments about the ceiling. For many reasons that include price, ease of installation, lack of dust, and design options, I am very pleased with my decision to go with Ceilume ceiling tiles.
 
Thanks for doing what you do and it has been a pleasure doing business with you!

Customer Testimonial:

We went with the Ceiling Link grid system.  I know this is not your product, but I thought I'd just share that next time I would go with one that locks together.  If I accidentally pushed too hard on the tile I was putting in, the whole row would shift, and I'd have to go back to the beginning and reset them all.  Not a huge problem, but annoying when it did happen.

As far as your product....

The tiles were sooo easy to paint. I loved them.  I ended up not antiquing the Stratford ones like I had planned to do because the antiqued ones seemed too dark, and looked dirty once they were up.  So, I painted the Stratford ceiling tiles a Crème Brulee cream color (one coat).  These went in the bulk of the basement... den, office, library, hallway, storage room, and bathroom. The trim in these rooms was also painted that color, and they look great together.  Rather than use the edge pieces of the grid, the top trim pieces actually hold the tiles up along the edges.

The Orb pattern is in our boys' bedroom.  I painted those the same light blue that is on the upper third of their walls (2 coats).  They look great!

As far as installation.  It was even easier than I expected to cut the holes out for vents and lights.  The material is very easy to work with.  The only issue I had was with the Orb pattern.  The problem may have been caused by us making the grid pieces fit a little too tightly in places.  If a tile was pushed up in a corner out of the grid, I could get a grip on the Stratford tile to pull it back down into place, but the Orb pattern had nothing to grip, so I had to pop the tile beside it out and push it back down, then hope that the one I popped out fell back into place easily.  This was not a huge problem, but it did happen often. Again, this may have been due to the grid system we chose not locking into place, allowing the tiles to get pinched tighter than they needed to be.

So, overall, we were very pleased with the Ceilume tiles.  They were easy to work with, took paint very well, and were easy to put up. They look really great, and we're looking forward to their easy care for many years.

achieving the look of hand carved wood at a fraction of the cost

Customer Testimonial:

We painted it (Ralph Lauren Polo paint) metallic brown with a sprayer and then used stiff scrub brushes to bring out the metallic colors (we just hand brushed the paint after we sprayed) the ceiling is awesome. We wanted the look of a old tin ceiling in our home theater but it turned out to look a lot like an old plaster or hand carved wood ceiling. We always ask visitors what they think the ceiling is and usually they think it is wood. LOL... Like we could afford that. One other thing, we sprayed the tiles while on the ground and sprayed the grid at the same time. I'm telling you, your product is awesome. We needed a drop ceiling because of the home theater basement application but so didn't want the look of a drop ceiling.

Customer Testimonial:

This was and is an old basement but certainly your product has dressed it up considerably. 

Believe it or not, we spray painted all the tiles with cans of paint since we could not find a color we liked in large quantity.  We used the Rustoleum hammered copper and we really do like it.  The name of the color is on the back of the can in very small print.  It had the shine we thought we needed.  Actually, we did try several other colors before deciding on this particular one.  

This room has worn many hats through the years but has always been a home theater room... long before home theaters evolved.  At the same time it has been an exercise room, wine storage, foos ball and pinball with darts.  The children grew up and now it's just wine and movies.  Everyone who sees it, has liked it and has planned a use for it.  Unfortunately, not everyone takes the time to paint and install so those same guys installing those ugly white perforated ceilings should be talking these up to their customers.  

Your help was invaluable.  We so appreciate you.  We think you have a wonderful product and hope the best for you. Thanks again for all your help.

painted florentine ceiling tiles as a living room accent

Photo Description:

Florentine Ceiling Tiles don't have to be installed in an entire ceiling. These painted tiles accent the living room ceiling just above the television.

I am very pleased with the installation. It really gives my drop ceiling some color and style. First I spray painted all of the tiles brown and then dry brushed some gold, antique gold and some copper over various areas of each tile with latex paint.
