"Michael from Ceilings Etc. was very professional and friendly during the entire project of popcorn ceiling removal, which included giving me an honest and competitive bid, masking entire rooms in plastic to keep dust and debris contained, removing the popcorn ceiling, resurfacing the Sheetrock, texturing it to match my walls, and priming/painting the new ceilings. The final product are gorgeous new ceilings in six rooms. Clean up was also excellent. I highly recommend this company for popcorn ceiling removal and any interior painting project you might have. I got three bids on our project and Ceilings Etc. tied for low bid. What sold me was the thorough explanation of the project and the minimal amount of work the homeowner has to do moving furniture and removing ceiling light fixtures and fans. They virtually did it all. Thanks Mike!"

"Joaquin was awesome, and I highly recommend him. He was able to remove the popcorn ceiling in five rooms and paint the interior of a 1600 sq house. He did this all in six days. We did our final walkthrough and everything looked amazing. Five stars for sure."

"We had Israel, Gabriel and Kelly take off the popcorn on our ceilings and then re-surface them. One room had a structural issue and Israel repaired it and continued on to the finish work. All three of these people are professional and caring about the project and a delight to work with. Highly recommend!"

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

When steaming falls short, consider utilizing a commercial texture remover tailored for popcorn ceiling removal. Adhere closely to the manufacturer's guidelines and conduct a preliminary test in an inconspicuous spot to verify compatibility with your ceiling. This specialized product offers an alternative solution for stubborn texture removal, potentially streamlining the process while safeguarding the integrity of your ceiling surface. Remember, products like these may be high-VOC, so wear protective gear.

Because of the nature of the texture, it's common for the popcorn texture to loosen while painting. Popcorn ceilings are delicate, and using a heavy hand with a roller or applying overly wet paint can loosen the texture. To avoid a mess, handle the material gently with a roller or brush. It's also smart to test a small area first, and if the texture starts coming off, the ceiling may need repairs or sealing before painting.

In most cases, it is worth removing popcorn ceilings because they are considered outdated and can make a home more difficult to sell. Buyers typically prefer a smooth, modern finish, so removing the texture can increase a home's value and appeal. The necessity can sometimes depend on the housing market; in a competitive market, buyers may be more willing to overlook minor renovations. The most critical factor is the potential presence of asbestos, which is common in older popcorn ceilings and poses a significant health hazard if the material deteriorates. If you know your ceiling contains asbestos, you are required to disclose this when selling, which can be a major deterrent for buyers. In this situation, it is highly recommended to have a professional remove or encapsulate the ceiling to resolve the issue before it impacts the sale.

Yes. Sagging ceilings often indicate more severe problems, such as structural damage, roof leaks, and pest infestations. As the sagging expands, your ceiling may eventually collapse, posing a threat to your physical safety and leading to expensive repair and restoration costs. That’s why you need to fix sagging ceilings as soon as you notice them.

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.
