"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.

"Donnie came out to look over the job and give us a price. He was on time professional, knowledgable, and sincere - my husband and I both felt very comfortable with him. He sent a written quote via email latter that day as promised. When we finally had most things out of the basement we called him back. He came out again, we added a few things to the original plan. He was reassuring that he could start on our desired date and that we would be happy with his workers. They came on our desired day to start. We were skeptical but hopeful. By the end of the first day we were thrilled with all the workers! No way we could have hoped for better. Norma the team leader was unbelievable working alongside  the men with suits and masks in hot summer weather. They were prompt everyday and worked hard and quickly and were neat and clean.  Everything was just right when they left. I highly recommend MasterCat if you need mold remediation and want your property treated like it was theirs. "

"It went great! We love that the project took only 3 days and that Mal Graifman was on site each day, making sure things went smoothly. From the moment we contacted Mal and asked our numerous questions, we had a absolutely great experience. Mal went way above and beyond doing research into a roof problem we encountered and came back to fix that. This was my type of company; one that responded quickly, and took the time to fully explain the project. We will definitely use Professional Home Improvement again and even got a quote for our next project to side our home."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

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.

Priming a popcorn ceiling before painting is a good idea, especially if the ceiling is stained, discolored, or has never been painted. Interior paint primer helps seal the surface, preventing stains from bleeding through and allowing the paint to adhere better. Use a stain-blocking, water-based primer for best results.

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.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity due to their outdated appearance, difficult maintenance, and potential health risks. Ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos, which poses a serious health hazard if disturbed. As design trends have shifted towards sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now favor smoother ceilings that offer a cleaner look and easier upkeep.

However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as acoustic dampening and the ability to hide imperfections. Some people also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective option. Ultimately, whether a popcorn ceiling is 'bad' depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic of the home.

The timeline varies from a few hours to two days, depending on room size, texture complexity, and removal difficulty.
