"Eduardo and his crew amazed me with the professional work they did to dry wall my large basement ceilings and walls. I had very complex ceiling framing done due to a lot of pipes and vents and was worried that dry walling will be a challenge. Sure enough Luviano's delivered with quality, speed and professionalism. I was so impressed with them that I extended their service to include priming/painting the walls and ceilings and install vinyl floor planks with underlayment , new doors and trim throughout my basement, they did it all. I wish Home adviser one day can add a feature to include some photos. Those guys are up to a great future. I will hire them again for anything that they're capable of doing. As other reviews mentioned, they're super prompt and can start super early to complete the work efficiently. Look no further, this is great value for the money and a rare find !!"

"Our bedroom ceiling caved in recently. Needless to say, it was quite a mess with insulation debris and drywall pieces everywhere. Taulant responded quickly through Angie’s List after I requested a quote and called me right away. He was courteous, came by the next day to inspect, and gave us a very competitive quote. We hired him, and he and his brother did a great job. They showed up on time, were discreet and professional, and finished the ceiling repair, drywall, and painting in two and a half days. Communication was smooth, and we were very happy with the results. Minimal paperwork made the process easy. The ceiling looks great, and they handled all the debris and cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend Taulant for any drywall job and greatly appreciate the awesome work he and his brother did for us."

"1. Storage Shed- the doors were falling off and hinges were bent. He repaired the doors so that they close securely and repainted the shed and contrasting trim. Great job

2. Escape window cover-installed Plexiglas hinged escape window cover. No breakage or cracks, yay!

3. Front Porch-the ceiling on front porch was mildewed, some trim was loose, and material used for ceiling was saggy. He reattached trim, repaired ceiling, and painted it. It looks better now than it did when we moved in 14 years ago.

4. Upstairs bath- Roy removed old ceramic tile floor, and old toilet. This job was complicated because I made a mistake counting the tile boxes. The tile was old so I could not match it exactly. Some of the mosaics were a different color, so I popped out the ones that didn't match and Roy had to put in the tiny correct ones by hand. The size of the new tile was also slightly off, but he installed it beautifully. We are very pleased with the result.

5. Downstairs bath- Removed old toilet and installed new one. Looks great! 

This is not the first nor the most difficult job he has done for us and it will not be the last one.

"We hired MasterCat because I have been having more and more problems with allergies, and a mold inspection found two kinds of mold that I'm allergic to. We also have five pets, I build furniture, and we have been remodeling our house, so I knew that the house was full of dust, dirt, and pet hair in addition to the mold.
Donny came out and checked out the house, using my mold inspection as a starting point. While in the basement he saw a spot on the ceiling that he thought might be mold and took an additional sample to make sure he knew about all of our issues. Then he gave me a proposal for cleaning the house, which included removing the mold, cleaning the ducts, resealing the grout in our shower, and cleaning all of the surfaces in the house where mold might grow. I was a bit skeptical when he told me that this would include all of my tools and the wood in my shop, but I shouldn't have been. They did an amazing job! The house is so clean that, if I didn't know better, I would think they threw out everything and bought new things to replace the old. They followed up with advice on how to keep mold out of our showers.
The remediation took three days, and I had to board our pets and a hotel for my husband and me, which took a lot of coordination, so I was worried when I found out that their crew's truck had broken down on the way to our house the first day. I assumed that they were going to have to reschedule, which would have cost me a lot of money. But instead they pulled a crew away from another job and they started the same morning. When that crew started, they realized that it was going to be a bigger job than they estimated, so they brought in additional people to help out and finished on schedule.
All in all, an excellent job from real professionals, and I'm very glad I chose them to do this work.

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

When steaming falls short, consider utilizing a commercial texture remover tailored for popcorn ceiling removal. Adhere closely to the manufacturer's guidelines and conduct a preliminary test in an inconspicuous spot to verify compatibility with your ceiling. This specialized product offers an alternative solution for stubborn texture removal, potentially streamlining the process while safeguarding the integrity of your ceiling surface. Remember, products like these may be high-VOC, so wear protective gear.

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.

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. 

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.
