"John gave me an estimate over the summer after letting me know his schedule wasn't open until fall. After looking at the sagging plaster ceilings in our 1920s house, he recommended covering with drywall, and he did the work in December. John and his colleague did two ceilings in 4 days (about 700 square feet total) and they are a huge improvement. We're already planning to hire him again!"

"Best Pro Builders did an excellent job of repairing nearly 100 year old plaster walls that had been damaged by time and wallpaper removal. Company also repaired ceiling cracks and made walls and ceiling look new. Finished job by painting. I highly recommend its services; great work for fair price."

"I hired Master Plastering to replace and paint a water damaged entryway ceiling. A representative came to my home, took pictures of the ceiling, made measurements, and emailed an estimated within an hour. The price quote was detailed and quite reasonable. A week later, a plastering crew arrived and pulled down the damaged ceiling, put up blue board, and skim coated the entire ceiling in a half day. Three days later, a paint crew arrived to prime and paint the new ceiling, again in about a half day. My wife and I very pleased with the work done. The crews were courteous, efficient, and cleaned up the area they worked on and in after completing their work."

"During the crazy winter, we had a water pipe burst in our old house, circa 1850. Once the pipes were repaired and water-damaged walls and ceilings were removed, John took care of all the plastering repairs. He was so prompt with his replies, easy to schedule, showed up when he said he would, and did such excellent work. Not only that, he was a pleasure to have around -- so friendly and kind!"

"The work done on two ceilings was excellent and of high quality. They were extremely knowledgeable about their business as well as being very professional. They made sure that they completed the work in a timely and efficient way. They did everything they could to make this work assignment produce the best possible result and I am extremely pleased with everything they completed. I would most certainly hire them again for any additional work needed in my home."

"Working with Derek and his team was great. The ceiling repair was being paid for by the HOA master insurance carrier, and I was so thankful Derek was willing to take the job, despite knowing that the payment process was going through insurance, and was delayed. He was very kind, patient, understanding, timely with replies, and always followed through with his word. He actually restored my faith that there are honest contractors out there. His quote was more than fair, and his team traveled like 2, 2.5 hours for the job. His guys were always on time, very personable, and professional. They also went above and beyond by painting the walls, even though that wasn't part of the quote. Overall, Derek & his team are very trustworthy, reliable, fair, and all around kind. I would hands down call them again & refer them, especially because there are a lot of dishonest contractors out there. Thanks Derek & team! Cheers!"

"Nelson is an excellent plasterer and contractor. He repaired a water leak in my ceiling and now it looks like it was never there. His friend Emerson painted the entire room and did a phenomenal job. He’s a very hard worker and amazing painter. Everything was spotless when he was finished. I would definitely recommend these two guys."

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.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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

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.

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.
