Coffered Ceiling Installation

Justin Matthews • September 3, 2026

Layout, beams and trim in one room

Location: Greenville, SC

The problem. A large room with high ceilings and nothing drawing the eye upward. The owners wanted architecture, not decoration.

What we did.

  • Laid out the grid to the room rather than to a standard spacing, so the coffers landed symmetrically
  • Built and hung the beams, scribed to a ceiling that was not perfectly flat
  • Added crown detail at every intersection
  • Primed, filled and painted to a finish-carpentry standard

The result. Trim carpentry changes a room more than paint ever will. This one took a few days and completely reset the space.
