"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"

"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"

"Mr. Lee was first contacted mid-morning and conducted the estimate before lunch. He returned after lunch (as promised) and repaired a 2' drywall tape separation near the top of my vaulted ceiling (about 20' up). He noticed other minor drywall imperfections around the house and promptly repaired those as well for the original price. He was prompt, courteous, reasonably priced, friendly and professional. He takes great pride in his work. Can't recommend him highly enough!"

Customers say: True professional

"Prime Drywall & Design patched a 3? square hole in the ceiling of one of our rooms which was left after remediation was completed in our attic from a pipe leak. Francisco responded to our inquiry & came to our house promptly. He was professional and explained what needed to be done to patch this hole. 2 days later his crew came & did a fine job of covering everything with plastic and then patching the hole. Francisco came the following day and sanded leaving the ceiling ready to paint. I highly recommend Prime Drywall &; Design."

On day two, they came in and mudded and patched and textured everything up. they made the work look like it was museum showroon quality! cant say enough about how good they finished up the project. Would definitely hire them again and would recommend to others"

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Smooth ceilings create a modern, clean look that helps brighten rooms by reflecting light, making spaces feel more open. They're easy to paint and maintain but can show imperfections. Textured ceilings add character and hide flaws like cracks or uneven drywall. With a range of patterns, you can opt for a subtle texture or something more decorative. The choice between smooth and textured ceilings comes down to your personal style and the look you want for your space.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity for several reasons, though opinions on them can vary. The primary drawbacks include an outdated appearance, difficulty with cleaning and maintenance, and potential health risks, as ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos. As design trends have shifted toward sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now prefer smooth ceilings for their clean look and easier upkeep. However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as excellent acoustic properties for noise reduction and the ability to hide imperfections. Some also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective solution. Ultimately, whether they are "bad" depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and aesthetic goals.

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.

If your popcorn ceiling contains asbestos, you must hire a professional asbestos removal company to handle the disposal. If your popcorn ceiling does not have asbestos, you can call a popcorn ceiling removal specialist to handle the job. Otherwise, you can hire a drywall or painting professional to handle the job, depending on what you need done.
