I have an unfinished ceiling. It presently has a suspended ceiling on it. The wife does not like the ceiling. I like the wife. Here is the question:
1. What kinds of ceiling tiles are available (I have seen 12" squares.) Both smooth and dented!
2. I am looking for textured tiles larger than 1 foot square!
3. I can't just drywall it because of the dust


Thanks

PS. I am in the Grand Rapids MI area.

Sounds like you currently have a drop ceiling. I'm was just looking at ceiling tile for my drop ceiling yesterday. There are several different options out there. If you decided to go bigger (which I assume would mean hanging new runners for tile to sit in) there are a variety of 2' x 4' tiles out there.

Looking at Menards, these tiles range from $1.60 per tile to $4.00 depending on the style. You can get textured or smooth. Looks like they even have some out there to simulate wood planks.
