"Bob did an exceptional job with plastering and smoothing over popcorn ceiling. There was added difficulty to the job due to harsh weather conditions which added more moisture and other variables, but Bob took care to provide clear and concise directions for me and for me to provide to other contractors. I would certainly recommend"

"

It took some time to schedule this job.   We had an earlier estimate in March from another contractor, which was quite excessive.   Also that contractor was not going to be available for some time.     We initially contacted John in July to determine availability, and then followed up in September.  

He made time to come out in late September to evaluate the job needed, and then we set some tentative dates for his return.  

The job was completed in about 3 hours.    John and his associate Matt were very neat, and made every effort to minimize the dust involved.      The job did require that part of the popcorn ceiling be scraped and smoothed.   We will have Matt return to complete the rest of the ceiling and painting for a modest additional cost.

"I'm glad I chose to work with Supreme Painters Inc. The estimated price for the job was competitive and reasonable. At the process front-end, Omar and Lindo listened to me patiently. They understood exactly what was needed due to their years of experience. They and their crew made the entire process agreeable and painless. This is/was the first of several projects that need doing in this old house. Our home suffered minor water damage due to the ice-dams that formed in the winter of 2015. After getting a new roof put on the house, there were a few areas where walls, window-frames and ceilings still needed some attention. The work crew, Nilton and Paolo, expertly processed the needed repairs, painting and cleaning-up without issues in two days. The only evidence they were here at all is the smell of the fresh paint - the mark of professionals."

"If you need plaster work done, I highly recommend Best Pro Builders Inc. I have been renovating a 100-year-old house in Cambridge, and needed some ceilings and walls repaired prior to painting. Erick came to my property twice to help me understand which walls and ceilings could be covered with skim coat plaster, and which needed to be demolished, as the plaster was coming loose from the lath. The crew who did the work were extraordinarily competent and hard working. As the job proceeded, I became worried about the huge mess the ceiling demolition made, but when the crew finished the job, they vacuumed and washed the floors, leaving the place cleaner than it was when they got there. I had received two other quotes for this job, and in additional to excellent work they did, Best Pro Builders Inc. was also the lowest priced bid."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

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

On average, repairing a ceiling costs anywhere from $450 to $1,750. However, there are many variables that can impact the price of this project. For example, the type of ceiling material, type and extent of the damage, and local labor rates all affect your costs. Holes and cracks are less expensive to fix, while structural issues and water damage are pricier problems.

Textured ceilings add visual interest and personality to a room, breaking away from the flat, uniform look of smooth ceilings. They are also practical, as the texture helps to hide imperfections, making them ideal for older homes or spaces prone to wear and tear. Textured ceilings come in a variety of patterns, giving homeowners the flexibility to choose a style that complements their design preferences, whether they want something subtle or more intricate. Additionally, certain textures can help with sound absorption, making rooms quieter and more comfortable.
