"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"

"Jose did a superior job putting up dry wall on my basement walls and in a long skylight my roofer installed. His work was painstaking and neat. He worked efficiently and completed my project as promised. Jose took care to cover the floors, and he inspected the floors once the project was complete. I am delighted with Joseâ s work and his attention to detail, and I will happily hire him again."

"5 STARS!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Oscar and his team installed new Drywall for my 825 sq foot ADU with High Ceilings and did an excellent job! Oscar was very easy to work with and did not change the price. He beat out all other estimates and worked really hard. I’m really happy and will use Oscar again. THANK YOU !"

Mr. Dove didn't do the work.  It was two of his employees or subcontractors.  The installation of the wiring, ceiling fan and ceiling light went fine, but the drywall repair wasn't that good.  The texture they sprayed on the walls didn't even remotely match the existing wall texture, so their patch job was obvious.  Also, they didn't reconnect something in one of the outlets so only the top socket worked.  When I notified Mr. Dove, he came out the next day to fix it.  I was impressed by Mr. Dove's professionalism, and would hire him again provided he did the work.

"We wanted to remodel our bathroom a bit (new fixtures, new paint), and because we had hired Tony from Nexxus Remodelling before and knew that he does smaller jobs for his loyal customers, we hired him to do the work. The bathroom looks great and we are very happy with it. Less happily, we showed Tony's right-hand man, Francisco, what we hoped was just a bit of a warped door on the lower-level in our guest house. Francisco was alarmed and called Tony, who came right away. Unfortunately, Francisco was right: It was a major leak coming from the balcony above. We were dismayed and hoped that there might be a different (less painful and costly reason). Tony agreed to open up some of the wall and ceiling so that we could see what was going on. Of course, and as has always been the case with him, he was right. It looked pretty bad. So, Tony and his team tore out the balcony floor, opened up the wall and ceiling downstairs (inside and out) were the water had been coming and replaced everything. Lots of money and time later (they had to come back what seemed like a hundred times to put down yet another layer of waterproofing on the balcony), it is done. They replaced the wood that had rotted, patched and painted the inside walls and ceiling, restuccoed the part of the outside wall they had to open up, and laid new material on the balcony floor, complete with a 7 layer waterproofing. The previous owners had laid down stones, which it turns out are prone to leaking. The floor we now have is much lighter, easier to take care of, and can be repaired if needed. We had the major work finished before the rains started this winter, and we were very glad we did. Everything held up beautifully as expected."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

If your popcorn ceiling is asbestos-free and you are ready for a new look, painting is an option. As long as there is no flaking or other wear, a new coat of paint might be just the thing to refresh the old ceiling. The best way to paint a popcorn ceiling is to use either a paint sprayer or a thick roller to cover the popcorn texture fully. (Do not forget to dust it off beforehand!)

“Note that if you eventually want to remove the popcorn ceiling, a painted ceiling is a labor-intensive job to remove and will cost more,” says Bob Tschudi. “Once painted, the process of removing the popcorn ceiling requires physical scraping as opposed to a spray-and-scrape approach. It’s very labor-intensive, and thus more costly.”

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.

Knockdown hides imperfections better than orange peel due to its thicker, more varied pattern. The valleys and peaks make flaws less visible under lighting. However, note that knockdown walls will collect more dust and dirt, so be prepared to wipe them away more frequently than you would with orange peel.

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. 

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.
