"The whole Total Drywall crew was great to work with. They came out and were able to provide a quote for the repair within a matter of days. It would have been sooner if the owner wasn't on vacation. Can you believe that? He actually took time out from his vacation to reply to emails to let me know he'll be abnormally slow to set the appointment up. What service. The repair was done in a matter of two days. They had challenges due to different sized and angled ceiling joists but the end result is that of what I expected. I wouldn't hesitate to hire this team again."

"What an amazing company!! After moving into our house a few months ago we knew we wanted to repaint everything.  After a thorough search on Angie's list and coming across Scott's, I knew that was the only company I wanted in my home, and they have proven to be just as professional as all of the comments and grades suggested.  
Quick responses and communication from the initial bid to the final days' work.  
The professional job the crew has done has been incredible.  All of the trim and lines (especially at the ceiling) are razor sharp and the work areas are always clean at the end of the day.  This is also a company I have felt completely comfortable with not being at home while they work.  
We will be hiring them for many more projects around the house.

"Great ! Owner Tim came out and did an emergency tarp -- in the rain, as my BR ceiling was leaking. Jan ( office manager ) worked with my insurance until the bid & repairs were enough to give me a great outcome. Their repair guy was professional, friendly and did a good job. I would not hesitate to use them again & to recommend them !"

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it’s an outdated look, despite there being so many types of drywall texture. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother’s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it’s time to smooth out your walls.

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.

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.

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.

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.
