"Jacob is very pleasant and mannerly. I gave the overall job from start to finish 4 out of 5 stars. The overall look of my ceilings is good and a much needed improvement from my popcorn ceilings. The wainscoting paneling gives a clean, modern farmhouse look. As Jacob is aware, there were some staffing challenges and family emergencies that delayed completion on his end. Given the delays, Jacob graciously offered not to charge me for the additional trim pieces needed to cover seams. As Jacob is also aware, I had envisioned a more finished look with regard to caulking and sanding nail holes, panel seams and trim pieces along with the second coat of paint. Despite the second attempt, the holes, seams and butt joints in certain areas are still visible which I have decided to live with and did not call Jacob to give him another opportunity to touch up these areas. Also, since the lighting fixtures werent removed or covered during the second coat of paint on the second visit, my new lighting fixture has paint on it. That said, Id definitely work with Jacob again and truly believe that he is hardworking and genuinely cares about his customers."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity due to their outdated appearance, difficult maintenance, and potential health risks. Ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos, which poses a serious health hazard if disturbed. As design trends have shifted towards sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now favor smoother ceilings that offer a cleaner look and easier upkeep.

However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as acoustic dampening and the ability to hide imperfections. Some people also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective option. Ultimately, whether a popcorn ceiling is 'bad' depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic of the home.

Some pros may recommend covering a popcorn ceiling that tests positive for asbestos with beadboard ceiling planks or drywall. The cost to install a beadboard ceiling averages more than $5,000, but you likely will pay more than the average for the installer to deal with the asbestos safely. Installing a beadboard ceiling or new drywall will disturb the asbestos and release some microscopic fibers, so the installer will need to take precautions. 

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Popcorn ceiling textures can enhance acoustic properties, while their removal or repair modernizes appearance and resolves health concerns from old asbestos.
