"Luiz was professional, knowledgeable and courteous throughout the entire project. He and his crew removed old popcorn on 18 foot high ceilings and then sprayed knockdown texture. Prior to the removal process, all of the walls, floors and handrails were protected with plastic covering. All work was completed expeditiously and all workers were extremely polite going above and beyond to please us. We were also very satisfied with the cleanup process. We highly recommend Luiz and would hire LLC for future projects. Thank you!"

"One of the best contracting companies Iâ ve had the privilege to work with!! 614 Drywall (Emilio) and his team was on time, professional, and completely reliable while removing my popcorn ceilings. We commissioned them to remove all of our popcorn ceilings in our home at the same time and not only did they do a phenomenal job they did a wonderful job taping and plastic-ing the house off and the dust wasnâ t even an issue for my asthma. They were also so proactive to fix any settling cracks they came across on our 20ft ceilings. They are the best!! Hire these guys, you wonâ t be disappointed!"

Customers say: True professional

"Daniel was amazing! Daniel did a drywall skim and then paint of our entire house's ceilings after popcorn removal. Everything looks amazing, the quality of work with the skim and the paint is phenomenal. Daniel goes above and beyond with help outside of the scope of the project, advice, and even painting lessons! A talented craftsman and a great guy, you won't be disappointed if you hire Daniel. ¡Daniel fue increíble! Daniel quitó los paneles de yeso y luego pintó los techos de toda nuestra casa después de quitar las palomitas de maíz. Todo luce increíble, la calidad del trabajo con el desnatado y la pintura es fenomenal. Daniel va más allá con ayuda fuera del alcance del proyecto, consejos e incluso lecciones de pintura. Un artesano talentoso y un gran tipo, no te decepcionarás si contratas a Daniel."

"PatchMaster repaired the drywall in a 3x4' portion of the ceiling that had a water leak repaired. the estimation process was simple. Russel and I exchanged text and photos, and he came to the house to confirm his understanding of the scope of the work. I was on their schedule a week later, and the drywaller arrived a few minutes early. He installed furniture and carpet protection from the job site all the way to the door to ensure that he kept the hours clean. His demolition was fast and he let me inspect the are in the cavity before install the patch so I could quickly check for other plumbing issues. His patch work and texturing were also quick and tidy, and the match to the surrounding/untouched ceiling looks pretty good. Over all, I am very happy with PatchMaster and will use them again for drywall needs. Their price was fair as compared to several other quotes I received. I felt that Russel demonstrated the most comprehensive understanding of the work and what needed."

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.”

Yes. Sagging ceilings often indicate more severe problems, such as structural damage, roof leaks, and pest infestations. As the sagging expands, your ceiling may eventually collapse, posing a threat to your physical safety and leading to expensive repair and restoration costs. That’s why you need to fix sagging ceilings as soon as you notice them.

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

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 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.
