"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."

"Mike came out and bid on the project which was to remove the popcorn acoustic ceiling and prepare it for painting. He was professional, efficient, and quick. He covered all the floors for protection, and cleaned up everything."

"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!!!"

Customers say: True professional

"From the initial estimate stage Daniel was timely and professional, all the while conveying that level of trust and comfort I was looking for. His team of painters are top notch. I not only knew I was in good hands but trusted them 100%. I started with thinking I just wanted my interior painted but with Daniel's guidance and seeing how well his guys prepped, I decided to scrape the popcorn and add baseboards and trim. When you are living in the house it is a very invasive undertaking but they cleaned up so well and really took care. I'm 100% thrilled and it took less than two weeks! Thank you all very much!"

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it’s an outdated look, despite there being so many types of drywall texture. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother’s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it’s time to smooth out your walls.

No, not all popcorn ceilings have asbestos, but a vast majority do. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned its use in 1973, although it still may have been used up through the early ‘90s. But, in general, homes built or remodeled before the early ‘80s likely utilized materials with asbestos. That being said, a professional test is the only way to determine for sure.

Popcorn ceilings can be relatively easy to keep clean with regular maintenance. Avoid exposing it to smoke if possible—popcorn ceilings tend to collect stains from smoke, including those from cigarettes or cooking. With proper care, you can clean your popcorn ceiling anywhere from every six months to a year—or as needed.

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.

Under the right circumstances, removing your popcorn ceiling can have a favorable ROI exceeding 80%. The ROI depends on several factors, such as the size of your ceiling, where the texture is located in your home, the state of the housing market, and whether the ceiling contains asbestos.
