"I searched a lot before I decided to hire Don's Ceilings and Lights -- I'm so happy I did. The friendly team did a great job (and cleanup). The popcorn removal and the painting of the ceilings throughout my home were done in only 3 days -- my ceilings look wonderful. I highly recommend them."

"Mr. Lee is a master craftsman. His work on my 100-year-old home was exceptional. He repaired the drywall in my kitchen ceiling to perfection. Mr. Lee also was able to match the Spanish-style plaster work exactly in my hallway. In addition, he tackled a difficult stucco job on the exterior of my home with ease. He arrived on time each day and left the work areas spotless. Mr. Lee was a pleasure to work with."

"Can't say enough about Brian and his crew. They installed laminate flooring (including the closets); painted the entire interior, created fixtures in the livingroom and bedroom ceilings for fans, replaced the toilet, replaced the registers and so much more. Brian even traveled to my apartment to remove the ceiling fans and install them in my new place. I originally called them for the flooring and was excited to discover they could do so much more. They finished everything in 4 days!! (I have a 900 sq. ft. condo) I will be using them again to re-do my kitchen and bathroom. They were courteous, professional, extremely reasonably priced and I highly recommend them!"

"I had a bunch of random jobs I needed done around the house: some noisy ceiling fans, broken door handles, leaky faucets... George fixed everything! Even ran to Home Depot to get the necessary materials needed to replace things. And he was very responsive, professional, and friendly! Couldn't ask for better! I'll definitely be giving him a call again in the future!

"Excellent: Joe came to our house promptly, and we told him that a realtor commented to us that our popcorn ceiling would turn away many prospective buyers. He reviewed our house and advised us to forgo doing the ceiling because houses in our neighborhood are in great demand and the cost and inconvenience would not warrant upgrading the ceilings at this time. We greatly appreciate his honesty and professionalism. Thumbs up for Kincaid Dev Inc."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

In most cases, it is worth removing popcorn ceilings because they are considered outdated and can make a home more difficult to sell.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.

The average popcorn ceiling removal costs around $2,000, but prices can range from $950 to $3,100, depending on the size, accessibility, and whether or not there’s asbestos or lead paint. 

We don’t recommend DIYing this project to save money, but you can DIY the prep work to speed things up. Consider removing furniture, ceiling lights, and other fixtures before the workers arrive on site. To be extra helpful, cover any remaining belongings with plastic tarps and secure them with tape.

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.

After removing any type of skylight, you have a few options for the ceiling. You can patch and repair the ceiling to match the surrounding area, ensuring a smooth and seamless finish. Alternatively, you can install a light fixture or a ceiling fan in place of the skylight to maintain functionality and enhance the room's lighting and ventilation. Ultimately, the choice depends on your preferences and the specific requirements of the space. No matter what you choose, you’ll probably want to call in a pro to help. 

Using a paint sprayer is the most effective method for painting popcorn ceilings, and it's why professionals choose spraying versus rolling paint. The sprayer simplifies the challenges of painting the texture. However, we don’t recommend that DIYers try to use a sprayer indoors as it could make a significant mess. Using a paint roller on a ladder is the easiest option that results in much less mess.
