"Ok, I almost never give 5 stars. Caliber did what they said they would, in the time frame they promised, for the amount agreed. Removed popcorn ceiling, patched and painted same. Workmanship was good, just a few minor things we didn’t catch until later. Overall, very good. On my short list for next year’s painting project"

Customers say: True professional

"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."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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

It depends on the type of texture you’re adding but yes, you can often use a roller to texturize a ceiling. The roller needs to be able to hold enough medium to create some relief on the ceiling but not so much that gravity will pull it off before it dries. Using a roller with a nap between ½” and ¾” will allow the roller to hold enough material to do the trick.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.
