"We'd hung the drywall and we were looking for someone to do the tape/mud. We did two small rooms, but one with 12 foot ceilings. About 1,100 sq ft of wall surface. They are extremely responsive and engage their customers. They came out to the house the same day we called them to come give an estimate. My wife wanted it done quickly so we paid a bit of a premium, but still reasonable. They managed to get us scheduled in and complete in under 2 weeks (actual work was about 4-5 days). Their quote included them providing the mud, tape, and corner beads. They also fixed a couple old cracks and trouble spots in other rooms. The owner showed up to bid and review the job. He stopped in a couple days while his team was there, usually in the morning to give guidance. They were quiet and professional. This was a remodel in the home we are living in and they did a pretty good job of keeping the dust and mess to a minimum. If you've ever done drywall before, it can be DUSTY. They did so well with the mud, there was minimal sanding and they had a dust collection system that helped. Glad we called them! We are almost done painting and in another week or so you'll never know those rooms didn't exist previously."

"Mr. Robinson did a great job. I appreciated his willingness to meet me at Home Depot, and then Lowe's, to pick out and buy the attic stairway materials. It was great that he would also transport the heavy, bulky materials in his truck. The work was well-done; he and his helper were professional, skillful and careful not to damage any nearby structures. They also did a great job of cleaning up after the work was completed. The only downside was that I wish I had known to ask for a higher quality of plywood for the opening. Perhaps Mr. Robinson should discuss the possibility of a smoother finish with better wood to the next customer :-)"

"The house is 60+ years old and so needs attention from time to time.  The caulk around some of the windows as in need of repair, and other holes had been left uncaulked where old electrical and gas pipe work had been done.  Dave completed all the work within the time arranged for the work, doing a good job.  He also identified a loose hardware cloth screen covering the window in front of the attic fan that should be replaced and noted where touch up paining is going to be needed.
He was fully professional, knew what he was doing, and I will use him again.

"We hired Casey to do exterior work and upon seeing his skills we have added projects. We soon realized his artistic capabilities and contracted him for a mural. His diligent, thoughtful and expressive works bring joy to our home and everyone who enters our home is so impressed . He captured the theme & spirit of what we wanted to achieve with the subject matter & his amiability…a down to earth artist and companion. I would highly recommend Casey and his team!!"

Popcorn Ceilings questions, 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.

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.

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.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

In most cases, it is worth removing popcorn ceilings because they are considered outdated and can make a home more difficult to sell. Buyers typically prefer a smooth, modern finish, so removing the texture can increase a home's value and appeal. The necessity can sometimes depend on the housing market; in a competitive market, buyers may be more willing to overlook minor renovations. The most critical factor is the potential presence of asbestos, which is common in older popcorn ceilings and poses a significant health hazard if the material deteriorates. If you know your ceiling contains asbestos, you are required to disclose this when selling, which can be a major deterrent for buyers. In this situation, it is highly recommended to have a professional remove or encapsulate the ceiling to resolve the issue before it impacts the sale.
