| Ask the Experts a Question about Metal Ceiling . | |

I am remodelling the kithen and love the idea of replacing the sheetrock ceiling with stamped tin decorative ceiling tiles. I checked it out on line and I found a place that sells them for around $20 per panel. I think that is expensive. Is there a cheap alternative. The house is 60 years old. I want the kitchen to have character. I love the way the stamped tin tiles look on the ceiling. If there is a cheaper molded plastic version, I can accept that as well. I just want to add texture to the ceiling with some intricate detail. I want it to be affordable also. The kitchen is about 12ft x 12ft. I will be starting with exposed joists.

We live in a mobile home with a metal room attached that has a metal roof, the ceiling started leaking, so my husband took down the old ceiling and put a new metal roof on the room. He left the old metal on the roof , put insulation on top and then put new metal roofing on top of the insulation. Now the inside of the room sweats {we have not put in a new ceiling yet} it drips almost constantly. expecially when it is cold and the warm sun hits the roof. We need to put up a ceiling, but we cant't because the ceiling tile will just get wet and ruin. What can we do to stop the roof {ceiling} from sweating and getting everything in the room wet? Can anyone help us with this problem?

I'm in the process of finishing my basement and only have the ceiling left to complete. I used metal studs for the framing and am using a metal grid system for a drop ceiling. How should I attach the wall molding to the walls? The manufacturer says to use nails, but that's obviously not an option with the metal studs. Would a drywall screw meant for metal framing work?
