"I hired MG Drywall to repair ceilings after doing electrical work. Miguel is great. He is very fast. Miguel and his crew did a lot of work. Hanging drywall, complete skim coat on the ceiling and texture. The results are great. Would never know any work was done. I highly recommend MG Drywall and would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you for a fantastic job"

"Charles Trujillo did a great job patiently explaining how he was going to meet the challenge of attaching drywall to my cinder block wall and then he and his son followed through, completing the drywall and painting in two days. The quote was higher than some, but I am confident the work will hold up and it is backed by a year's warranty. Moreover, the crew did touchup painting of the ceiling and at my request returned to push my bed to the exact spot where it previously stood so no carpet pressure marks were visible."

"This was not a huge job but it was my residence and I really wanted it done right. All I can say is that Mr. Lee is a drywall artist! He provided a timely bid for the project. He was able to schedule the work promptly. He showed up on time. He was extremely careful with preparation. He did beautiful work much faster than I expected. He matched the existing texture flawlessly and left the job site spotlessly clean. If you need drywall work right, you cannot go wrong with this man. I highly recommend!!!"

"I really enjoyed working with Daniel and his crew. Despite how stressful it should have been, Daniel's professional knowledge and experience really eased the process and now we have a beautiful house. Diamond Painting Co was timely, efficient, and made sure we got the highest quality for our budget. They scraped our popcorn ceiling, painted, and put in new carpets. I will definitely be calling them first for any future home needs. I am so glad I found them on Home Advisor."

"We had two rooms walls and a ceiling in one as well as power washing and some exterior painting of small areas. They were very fair with pricing and great customer service / meeting / estimate from Jake. Painter Sammie was very nice and professional. As we were in Covid TIme they asked and wore masks at meetings, work and review. Very easy to work with. I did ask for some other work for drywall patching and painting where they were twice as high as others. If you just always get a couple bids and are comforatable with pricing I would reccomend Beach Boyz as they are professional and plesant to work with. Tony R."

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.

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

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.

Professionals use spraying or painting machines for application, skimming and filling for repairs, or specialized scraping techniques for safe removal.

Priming a popcorn ceiling before painting is a good idea, especially if the ceiling is stained, discolored, or has never been painted. Interior paint primer helps seal the surface, preventing stains from bleeding through and allowing the paint to adhere better. Use a stain-blocking, water-based primer for best results.
