"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 !!"

"Mario was GREAT to work with. He was personable and honest and the quality of work excellent. His crew painted the exterior of an over 125 year old wooden house that was in bad shape and it looks wonderful. His crew also painted the interior ceilings of my house that had water damage in two different areas. His crew were quiet clean and respectful taking great care and making sure everything was completely to my satisfaction. Will only be using Mars Painting in the future."

"Jason repainted our wrought iron fence. It had a lot of rust on it, so a lot of grinding was required to prep it for paint. That took a day. On day 2 he did the painting. The fence looks great, the paint was applied liberally yet evenly, and Jason is very nice and very easy to work with.

"The design staff was very professional and knew how to move the process forward and work with the client so they selected the kitchen they wanted. Considerable time was spent honing the layout and selecting finishes and materials to be used. Construction crews were very professional and skilled. The only issue encountered during the process was that there was some times that crews spent limited time on the job which in turn slowed down the project at times. The kitchen turned out very nice and changed the character of the entire house. I would use this company again and highly recommend Carol for her practical design ideas and professional approach.."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

It is often less expensive to cover a popcorn ceiling instead of removing it. Installing drywall costs $1.50 to $3 per square foot, whereas popcorn ceiling removal averages $7 per square foot. Another option may be installing beadboard panels over top, giving your ceiling a fresh and modern look.

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.

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.

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.”

Under the right circumstances, removing your popcorn ceiling can have a favorable ROI exceeding 80%. The ROI depends on several factors, such as the size of your ceiling, where the texture is located in your home, the state of the housing market, and whether the ceiling contains asbestos.
