"The final look was absolutely beautiful. A certain color i picked didn’t look how i expected it to & they were more than willing to paint over and redo that section with a different color of my choice. Everyone was very respectful & professional. I will be calling back for more inside work!"

"Joe was with me the entire process - insurance thru completion. Joe first went with me to meet with the insurance claims adjuster. He jumped right in with the demo crew to demo the affected areas and determine the extent of the damage. Joe re-insulated and hung new drywall, he re-did the bathroom and four other rooms. It was a huge job and things kept getting added by me - like let's repaint. the porch, the kitchen, the ceilings in the dining room...you get the idea! Each time I wanted something else, Joe's response was always the same, "No problem." The work is excellent. It has been long and full of surprises due to really old construction. But it is done and beautiful. If there is a particular aspect of the job that joe wasn't licensed in, he called in a certified contractor. For example, the plumbing was done by a plumber. I'm pleased and already hired him for a few other things back at my house. Great personality, great work and great ideas to make every project work best.

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity due to their outdated appearance, difficult maintenance, and potential health risks. Ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos, which poses a serious health hazard if disturbed. As design trends have shifted towards sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now favor smoother ceilings that offer a cleaner look and easier upkeep.

However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as acoustic dampening and the ability to hide imperfections. Some people also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective option. Ultimately, whether a popcorn ceiling is 'bad' depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic of the home.

Because of the nature of the texture, it's common for the popcorn texture to loosen while painting. Popcorn ceilings are delicate, and using a heavy hand with a roller or applying overly wet paint can loosen the texture. To avoid a mess, handle the material gently with a roller or brush. It's also smart to test a small area first, and if the texture starts coming off, the ceiling may need repairs or sealing before painting.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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. 

Knockdown hides imperfections better than orange peel due to its thicker, more varied pattern. The valleys and peaks make flaws less visible under lighting. However, note that knockdown walls will collect more dust and dirt, so be prepared to wipe them away more frequently than you would with orange peel.
