"We had Gerald come to our to do some work on drywall and ceilings. We looked on Home Advisor and Gerald contacted us almost immediately, came by to look that day. We had popcorn ceiling removed and it needed fixed. We had a bunch to be done. The price was very reasonable. When he started, he arrived at our house everyday when he said he would. He worked his plan, which he discussed with us and when he was finished he cleaned up leaving our house looking like it did when he arrived that morning. Gerald was extremely easy to work with and did exactly what he said he was going to do. We were very pleased with the work that he did for us. He textured all of our ceilings, replace the tape and joint compound on the ceilings and walls that were missing. We have him scheduled for our next project. If you’re looking for someone who shows up when they say they will, does what they say they will do and does a very good job, Gerald will not disappoint you."

"Sloppy edging, paint left on door knobs, handles, windows, uneven color demarcation between walls/ceiling. Walls needed refilling/painting (I redid myself). Painter used wrong finish."
"I can honestly say that they were very professional and did an awesome job they remodeled my kitchen from top to bottom and I could not be more satisfied. After they finish the kitchen, I rehire them to do a bedroom and it turned out great. They painted the walls re-textured. The ceiling lay down the laminated flooring. I’ll give them a 10 out of 10."
"Only one of us was home and it wasn't me, so I don't know how well it went, but after they left I noticed they had stepped off of the rafters in the attic and cracked the ceiling in the room below the air conditioner and did not mention that to the person who was here, but just left. Now, it's our word against theirs and we will have to pay to fix it."

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.
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 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.”
Soundproofing enhances privacy, reduces ambient and external noise for improved concentration, and creates a more comfortable living environment, especially in noisy neighborhoods or busy households. Additionally, it can improve the audio quality in spaces like home theaters.
While you should consult with a ceiling professional for larger cracks, especially if you’re not sure what’s causing your ceiling to crack, you can certainly try to repair small cracks on your own. If you’re up for the task, here’s how to repair ceiling cracks for $150 or less.
