TIME-LAPSE: Coffered Ceiling with Lighting

[@nathanielmajors9817]

This is one of the most well edited, attention capturing, and athletically pleasing videos I’ve ever seen! Shoutout to the excellent vision and craftsmanship, this made my day!

[@nothanks561]

Thats sick. Great work gents.

[@anastasios3006]

Ah, this is fantastic! Great work! I have to build one now.

[@bassface84]

This looks AMAZING!

[@williamwhittaker5447]

Very good craftsmanship

[@fiolds350]

Beautiful work!

[@bertmeza8673]

Super clean...as an electrical man, I worry about the led lighting. I suppose it could be done to give access to them should anything go wrong. Or some nice 4” mini’s centered in each area. Overall it looks amazing!

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

Bert meza thanks! Yea we used Tresco lighting products for this not some generic brand. We tested and triple checked all our connections. If anything happens though we can fix it in a days work. Thanks for the comment! 👍

[@stephanelandry]

Awesome work

[@bobbydazzlerconstruction8522]

Beautiful work👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@00tact]

Oh my word, stunning.

[@Bloktopian]

looks fantastic! great job!

[@johnjayala]

Dig that new floor that popped up at the end too =D

[@markblemler5410]

Right?! I was like, please god tell me they're ripping out that horrid tile.

[@coleve8596]

Excellent work ethics love the detail

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

Thanks! glad you liked the detail.

[@naazimmaredia796]

Looks great!

[@Modeling0216]

BEAUTIFUL

[@Vincent-gt3gx]

Looks nice, but I think if you had a white chain the fixture would be floating in the room a rather nice effect.

[@regisrules22]

Or a clear/translucent chain. That's a really cool idea.

[@dq6169]

Great job. It’s beautiful. But what happens when the lights need to be replaced ??

[@juancornetto8243]

Very good.

[@DrunkenKnight71]

beautiful job, love it!

[@KL-xx6il]

stunning

[@oldporkchops]

Great job! Approximately how much did this coffered ceiling cost? Minus the chandelier.

[@howardrfrank]

How wide are the beams and how deep are the coffers? What are the size of the moldings? Simply fantastic work!!!

[@cardionadine7483]

how to change light bulbs in the future?

[@turbinepower77]

Looks good. A medallion on the ceiling at the chandelier would be a good accent also.

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

turbinepower77 yes you’re right and we considered it but the fire sprinkler was too close to have a nice medallion. We can always add one later if she finds one she likes. Thanks for the comment! 👍

[@andrewlittle3137]

This is beautiful work but what happens when the lights go out? How do you replace?

[@louiskim5359]

I have the same question. Remove and rebuild the whole thing 😃

[@creativegiacomo]

Depends if your the contractor or homeowner. Contractor: Sorry, check cleared already. Homeowner: Buy a new house :)

[@derrickdry9770]

you don't - you just quit using the lights - they are meant to last forever.

[@ShannonBattle3]

How did you feed the lighting through each coffer? What type of lighting did you use?

[@gelberflores6839]

Cuanto se estaría cobrando por un trabajo así, o un aproximado?

[@angladephil]

What are the references of transfo., led strips etc...please? This is a great work, sirs!

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

Philippe Anglade try Tresco lighting

[@sbs1687]

This looks fantastic. Great job guys. 2 story family rooms are the best. Does anyone know where that chandelier is from?

[@freedom1439]

Very nice. Wondering if you have ever painted the inside panels sky blue with clouds, it would give the impression it was glass.....and a person was looking up at the sky.......

[@jacobmanalooloo410]

Hi, quick question, about how much would this cost?

[@wasifur6569]

15 dollars

[@Tka1And]

nice! and how do you control the led lights? did you make a traditional switch for it on the wall? or is it on the remote? if its on the remote where do you have the sensor receiving the remote commands? thanks

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

Andrew Tkachenko we did it on a wireless switch. we ran an outlet in the attic where we plugged in the 5 transformers that connected to 5 remote sensors that had leads to each tape light section efficient for enough wattage to each transformer. We used one 12v FREEDiM series deco wall dimmer about 30’ from the transformers. Thanks for watching!👍

[@Rowdie_Rodie]

Could u please explain to me how u connected the led strips and wiring for that. I have coffered ceilings and want to add led strips in each square. Do u have to cut each strip for each square?

[@ginoasci]

i have questions about the lighting myself but doesn’t look like they respond to inquiries lol you posted your comment six months ago and i’m assuming you’ve installed the lighting by now. which brand and model did you purchase and what installation method did you use?

[@Jesusking_]

Yeah, help us out

[@anishpatel5715]

So they have connectors for LED strips, stone have 2 some have 4. My experience soldering is better. Also if doing 12v you will need to solder multiple locations because of voltage drop

[@abbuchinger2571]

Cool video! Which time lapse cameras do you use?

[@ryanmcnair3451]

awesome!

[@lvmykdz5724]

I love the ceiling, great work and great video.....but. I would lose sleep worrying about the inevitable day that just one of the hundreds of LED's stops working, leaving a dark spot. That's all I would see until the day i replaced it. Then, you better make sure you bought extra because Lord knows that a light purchased 5 years from now will be a different hue, even if off a little, forget about it.

[@MarkJones-rl9ph]

I was thinking the same thing...how the Hell do you remove all of that to replace them then?!? I ran lights in my kitchen above my cabinets for accent, and they burn out every year or so...

[@lvmykdz5724]

Mark Jones You are telling my story, I gave up on above cabinet lights. Funny how they tell you LED lights are supposed to last forever, but I am having incandescent bulbs in my house for the last 15 years never burn out. During the same time I go through multiple CFL’s and LED’s.

[@georgiafan6618]

@@lvmykdz5724 I ran Romex above and below my cabinets and hardwired the incandescent light boxes to wall switches. Never had an issue in 15 years. If I want LED, I can swap bulbs out to an LED but they’re crazy expensive. Leaving it incandescent with adjustable brightness. In the future, LEDs will catch up and be more reliable - but not at the moment.

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

LVMYKDZ yes I understand but we use Tresco lighting which gives me more confidence in the product. We used a 3500k color temp and keep records of this type of info. Replacing is no problem just a days work and they have between 25,000-50,000 hour life span so if they go out early we replace but anything over 25k hours we can fix at the customers expense. Thanks for the comment and watching! 👍

[@meatball6930]

Back in the day (15 years ago) we would install an outlet in every section and/or a few sections and drill holes through beams behind crown. This was back when people used rope lighting-so this way if a strip went bad you could unplug and fish it through or wrap it back around. But I’ll be honest here-if this was my house and that ceiling is that high and mine are still pretty high i would stick a whole extra set in there so when the others went i could flip on the new ones that are just sitting there ready. Expense upfront but way less expensive later!

[@michaelspaargaren5595]

$?

[@james2330]

What state do you do work in?

[@gpleeser5832]

very nice

[@georgiafan6618]

Love the pattern you chose to make the beams - asymmetrical looks cool. I recently sprayed doors and trim for a project and used an airless. Omg There was so much overspray. I would use an HVLP to spray beams or cabinets in a spot like this but you can’t rent one. What did you guys use to spray? Flawless job and LEDs just frame your effort. 👍

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

Georgia Fan thank you for the comment 👍. The pattern we chose matches the dining room ceiling that we did years ago. We do have a Fuji HVLP sprayer but did not use for this, we used a graco airless and knew we were gonna have overspray but we did it in a sequence that would not effect our progress.

[@CaptainDawg02]

Hmm...I need this in my front foyer around my existing chandelier. I really like how it separates it from the catwalk of the 2nd floor as well. Defines that space well.

[@ngkconstructioninc.9406]

CaptainDawg02 thanks for the comment! 👍

[@Atr42Greasemonkey]

@@ngkconstructioninc.9406 Notice you only respond to comments that people want work done ..Not cool

[@yudiwang6126]

how high is the ceiling？

[@denverdanoreno]

Great work guys. Here in the DC METRO $ 8-12 k for this finish work. ( of what I see)

[@shawnpityk668]

Great job, guys! I’m starting a project like this soon. What are the dimensions of that ceiling? I believe part of my space is similar to that, but wanted to ask. Thanks for any info!!

[@ecoRfan]

Hot. Now that’s creative. Definitely not anything “stock”.

[@tungle9473]

Perfect 10

[@yoitzdrew]

what did this project cost?

[@amitroy3878]

You guys gotta give a price on this. How much??

[@hidros1461]

How did you wire the leds?

[@SimonCU]

How much was it to do something exactly the same as this?

[@japundeepsingh682]

Cost ?

[@ginoasci]

what brand and model lights are those LED strips?

[@Jesusking_]

TRESCO

[@sammiedav1053]

beautiful. Also, love the video and all the informations you had on the video. Good job on the video too. NOW ! Which state are you guys & how much ?

[@golf4783]

This one looks better than what finish carpentry tv just did. Good job guys

[@elvis459]

Mitres not cut as well though and had to be filled, plus, there about 10 Men involved in this and not just 2.

[@golf4783]

elvis459 10 men involved? I only see the same 2 guys do everything in this.Carpenter tv needed an electrician just to change out the chandelier

[@georgiafan6618]

​@@elvis459 It’s a bear to climb up a scaffold carrying trim pieces redundantly to measure, then back down again, so you get as close as you can for the joint’s appearance. The nailing blocks don’t have to be exact - they’ll be covered up by crown. When you’re that high up, the joints won’t ever be seen so the joint compound and caulk will more than suffice. PS: Your shoulders are killing you too. Lol

[@cipher2]

this house must be a sphere, you can clearly see the curvature

[@Jesse-gv9tf]

This came out really nice, but I don't like the layout of the home. It seems to much for a small space.

[@oltedders]

Bring out the 18' ladder to change a burned out light bulb. Ridiculous and impractical to have a double height ceiling in a residential building.

[@timludwig7533]

Why the stupid music
