"James was hard to work with. He did a good job but forgets who the customer is. He?s condescending and a know it all. Doesn?t think he has to work on holidays and still wants to be paid. Also he over charges. Charged us $250 to clean a very small spool twice a week. He left without any written resignation and didn?t formally say he wasn?t coming back. Just disappeared "

" We recently completed a full kitchen remodel with Progressive Home Remodeling, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. David and his team were exceptional from start to finish. They removed all of our old flooring and installed beautiful new tile throughout, replaced the outdated cabinets with custom-built ones, and even provided a detailed 3-D design before starting the work. Every part of the project was completed with precision and matched the original design exactly. The entire process was surprisingly fast and efficient, and the price was very reasonable — definitely not the most expensive quote we received, but the quality exceeded our expectations. What stood out the most was David’s professionalism and dedication to detail. He truly cares about the final result and made sure everything was done right.

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.”

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.

Yes, you can cover a popcorn ceiling, and doing so may be more cost-effective and easier than scraping it off. Covering the ceiling can also help to protect you from asbestos exposure, if the material contains asbestos.

Skim coating is one way to cover a popcorn ceiling. Another option may be to install beadboard panels over top. If you suspect asbestos is involved, bring in a local asbestos abatement company to test and manage the removal.

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

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.
