"I am thoroughly pleased with Jason's work in all 3 rooms he painted in my home and highly recommend him.   I was concerned about the potentially messy removal of a wall mural that needed to be sanded off due to a textured finish.  Jason understood my concern about mess & dust and used a appropriate methods to minimize the mess.  As a result I was happily surprised at how little mess was made during  the removal of the mural and subsequent patching.  In general, Jason & his brother who helped on the projects cleaned up very well every day.  Jason helped us pick colors which ranged from the difficulty of finding the right white for one room, using a combination of bold colors in another, and coming to my rescue when I changed my mind for color for my kitchen.  He patiently helped me select a new color when I was having trouble and started over without missing a beat.  He stuck to his cost & time estimate perfectly. He was always punctual upon arrival and left for the day when he said he would.  He also updated my ceiling lighting & installed under cabinet lighting for me. All the rooms feel really transformed and look great!  Jason is conscientious, responsible, & trustworthy.  I got to know him and truly like him as a person as well.  He ended up helping me with other minor repairs around the house, never seeming to mind a little request here & there.  He is also very knowledgeable about computers and is starting a computer repair business.  I hired him to fix my laptop which he did successfully and plan to have him help me with other computer related issues.  Please see review for Jason in computer repair under the company name Chicagoland Computer Solutions."

"The work was quick, neat, and overall, just supurb! The contractor even went the extra mile to put down drop cloth over the floors to protect the floors, which I really appreciated. I would definitely use this company again."

"Master Cat came out the day the water heater leaked and gave me an assessment of the damage and what had to be done to correct the damage.  While inspecting the damage, the owner noticed that I had some mold developing in the closet.  The team arrived later that day (or maybe the next morning - I am not sure)  with heavy duty blowers, pulled up the wet carpet, removed the damaged wood trim from the bedroom, closet, and furnace closet and installed three (two or three) heavy duty fans to dry up the carpet, floors, and walls.  They sprayed the mold with some liquid and made sure that the area was exposed so that it could dry.  They left the fans for a day and a half until all the moisture was gone and then replaced the carpeting and wood trim and removed the fans. 
I was thrilled with their performance.  They responded rapidly to my call for help and came out as soon as they could.  They were courteous and professional and certainly knew what they were doing.  I would hire them again in a minute but hope that I won't have to use them in the near future.  They do a great job!

"Randy contacted me the same day I asked for an estimate on painting the second story of my house.His quote was the lowest I received. Within a couple of weeks he called to say he could start .On the day we set up he arrived and went over what would be done.Two emplyees scraped and painted the second story fascia and soffit of my house.  They were very neat in removing all scraped paint chips from the ground as well as no paint drops were noticed on the house or sidewalk. I was very pleased with the results and.because I paid with cash I received a discount which was great.

"I would do this again, and the electrician was very hard working.  He did all that I wanted.  The only issue was he made a ceiling fan way too low and I had to have my father shorten the pole for me.  The electrician should have done that himself.
But overall I was happy!

"The owner came out promptly and looked at our issue, explained the problem fully and outlined what they would do to take care of the problem.  After we decided to have them do the job,  they were out within a few days to do the work. They are very knowledgeable in the mold remediation process, very professional and efficient."

"It had been refinished about a year ago by another company but they didn't do a great job. We hired Matt to redo that job and it turned out very nice. It was much smoother and shinier. He was on time and if he was going to be late he would call. His helper also did a good job. They masked the whole bathroom before starting and hung plastic on the walls and paper on the floor."

"Walls and ceiling were completed correctly. However the basement stairway trim had many nicks and gouges. We had asked that this damage to the trim be repaired and then painted. The painter always said yes he understood but on more than a few occasions we pointed out nicks he had not spackled. The completed job was extremely disappointing as many of the nicks were still very visible. Also the tarp that was used was either paint soaked or allowed paint to be absorbed into the stairway carpet. I was so upset by the poor job that I just wanted the painter gone."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

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.

It depends on the type of texture you’re adding but yes, you can often use a roller to texturize a ceiling. The roller needs to be able to hold enough medium to create some relief on the ceiling but not so much that gravity will pull it off before it dries. Using a roller with a nap between ½” and ¾” will allow the roller to hold enough material to do the trick.

Professionals use spraying or painting machines for application, skimming and filling for repairs, or specialized scraping techniques for safe removal.

Yes, you can cover a popcorn ceiling, which is often more cost-effective and easier than scraping it off. Common methods include using ceiling-grade drywall, applying a skim coat, or installing beadboard panels to create a smooth, updated finish. Covering the ceiling can also protect you from asbestos exposure if the material contains it. However, it's important to note that this method only seals off the asbestos and does not eliminate it, which could be a concern for future renovations or home resale. If you suspect your ceiling contains asbestos, it's best to hire a local asbestos abatement company to test the material and manage its safe removal.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.
