We couldn't ask for a better looking ceiling and would be happy to be a
reference for you in Indiana.

We purchased our tin ceiling from The American Tin Ceiling Co. in July 2004. The contractor and his subs could not imagine why we would want a tin ceiling in our kitchen nor could they envision what it would look like. Just a few weeks before Thanksgiving the ceiling was finally installed and the result was even more beautiful than we had been telling them all along it would be.


Our house, even though it is brand new, was designed to look like a Midwestern farmhouse that had been on that site for around 100 years. The tin ceiling makes a bold statement in the kitchen and also gives the kitchen the sense of being old yet functionally modern. The tin ceiling when teamed up with the wrought iron lighting fixtures makes one believe that you could be standing in a kitchen of the farmhouse in the late 1800's. The play of the light from the windows across the ceiling and on the stainless appliances can be mesmerizing throughout a sunny afternoon.

Our insistence on having a tin ceiling from The American Tin Ceiling Co. installed in our new home has made believers out of our contractors and his subs and many of our friends and neighbors who have heard about "that tin ceiling you put in". Everyone who sees it, admires it, and is sent home with the website for The American Tin Ceiling Co.

Why are Tin Ceilings so popular today?

Tin Ceilings remind us of a different time in our country's history. Tin Ceilings stir memories of gentler days when elegance and beauty reigned. A slower paced era where style and grace were the watchwords in home decor. Old time victorian homes, formal parlors, farmhouses with wood burning stoves and other historic architecture we've seen in literature and film or remember from our childhood.

It is said that "Everything Old Becomes New Again". It reinvents itself and becomes fashionable again, perhaps because it was so fashionable in the first place. Fashion goes in and out of style as modern ideas are introduced to the market. But the popular styling's of the past always cycle back into modern contemporary culture. The Tin Ceiling exemplifies this concept.
