"I couldn’t recommend system one interiors more. The only thing I regret is all the time I wasted getting quotes from other contractors who gave me the runaround. Richard From systems1 interior is a dedicated and communicative person that I enjoyed and appreciated working with from beginning to end. I had asbestos popcorn ceiling removed by another company who were not as careful as I would have liked and left the ceiling in pretty rough shape. Richard and his team skim coated the whole ceiling primed and painted it. It looks beautiful and has really made Home feel like home. his team also took out an old AC/heater unit in the wall patched and repaired it like it was never there. He walked me through the process and explained all the steps. He was so thoughtful and took the time to show me pictures of what the end product would look like and even utilized resources I already had to cut costs for me as a homeowner. I really appreciated working with system one interiors! 10/10"

"Kirby Construction's work quality and professionalism way exceeded my expectations. My project consisted of removal of popcorn ceilings in a few rooms including a fairly large room, skim coat and paint the ceiling and walls, installed recess lights and new electrical lines in the garage. He worked exceptionally hard to keep his schedule, but never sacrifice work quality. He has a nice personality. You can definitely trust him to deliver what he promised. I will definitely recommend him to my friends."

"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"

"Top notch work. I'm a homeowner building in Burbank. I received 4 other estimates and spoke to many people. I needed 150 sheets of drywall installed and finished- this was by far the most drywall I ever needed. After meeting Ciro, I felt comfortable and had a very positive feeling about his character. He quoted a fair price and we finalized the job that day. They did a level 5 finish in the living room, kitchen and baths. It's the first time I ever had level 5- the walls are perfectly smooth from floor to ceiling. I'm very happy with the results. Thank you Ciro."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

Challenges include potential asbestos exposure, uneven finishes, or damage to the underlying ceiling if not done correctly.

Yes, you just may need to add an extra coat or two of primer to already painted ceilings. This will help mask the old paint and give you a fresh canvas on which to add your new texture.
