"Excellent from start to end. Pete was easy to schedule with, and showed up exactly on time, both for the estimate and the work. The work was performed efficiently & effectively, including painting and cleanup. The boundary between the patched portion of the ceiling and the original ceiling is absolutely invisible. It looks better than before the break took place. B&D Construction's written estimate was supplied prior to the work taking place. It was crystal clear, both in the 7-step work process description and the pricing section."

"Our garage ceiling was in imminent danger of collapsing due to failing drywall. While we weren’t thrilled at the unanticipated expense, Henry had his crew out within a day to begin repairs and explained every step of the process. The crew worked over the weekend to complete the job, and were friendly, professional and courteous throughout. The new drywall was installed and finished flawlessly, and they took care to clean up afterwards. Given the speed with which we had to have repairs done, I didn’t have time to get many full estimates for comparison, but for the scope of work it seemed reasonable. I would absolutely recommend this company for the quality of their work and responsiveness."

"American Kitchen Concepts transformed our dining, kitchen, and living area into a beautiful gathering space for our family. The space is very practical and incorporates elements that we asked for and other wonderful suggestions that we didn't know we wanted. The upfront design was great. My wife and I felt very comfortable and listened to. The materials and options were numerous but we received appropriate guidance in matching our tastes to the right selections. The entire process was transparent. The team that was onsite were talented and professional. They were great people to have in your house during a lengthy remodel. The team focused on quality work and where appropriate identifying issues that needed to be addressed. The coordination with third parties was fantastic. We didn't have to do much to ensure the various trades and suppliers were brought in at the right time. Everything came together nicely. I would use them again for future projects and we're happy with the value we received for our investment."

"Our 30 year old porcelain tub and tile surround were showing their age, with small leaks in the grout and caulking that kept recurring and requiring attention.  It is a bathroom used by teens so we wanted something easy to clean and maintain.  From the first phone call, Porcelite was an easy company to deal with.   The owner, Mr Wachter, came out and provided an estimate for installing a liner over the tub and wall surround.  He came back a second time to address concerns I had about the drywall behind the tile surround.  He provided an estimate, including removing some tile and replacing some drywall behind it just to be on the safe side.  We scheduled the work.  The Porcelite guy showed up as scheduled, installed the liner in about 7 hours, and we could use it the next day.  It looks great, very bright white, and is much easier to maintain than the old tile was.  It was a straightforward job from start to finish.

"The work exceeded my expectations. The roof needed to be replaced and one whole wall was rotted out. He replaced the roof, used pressure treated wood for the walls and support boards. He also used tyvek. The repairs were higher quality than the original install. He even fixed the stuck latch. I was impressed with the careful quality work! Would definitely hire again."

"Just before having new cabinets installed, we painted our kitchen only to find that we are terrible ceiling painters! We left the job unfinished, which left part of my first floor painted and an awful "stop line." This painting job was going to require knowledge of how to blend two different paints and different coat numbers. We needed a professional. Cleveland called us promptly after we claimed the Angie's List deal to set a date. He was so kind to stop by briefly to give us guidance about what furniture should be moved and what could stay put. He didn't want us to do more moving than was necessary. Cleveland arrived early on our scheduled paint day and began covering our furniture with plastic. He was so careful to cover our brand new kitchen cabinets and counter tops. He took time to wrap our new dining room light and ceiling fan too. I truly appreciate his attention to detail. He is a talented painter and was able to blend the pre-painted kitchen with the rest of our living room. He took time to patch a small crack in the ceiling that he discovered in our hall. You can no longer see a hint of our ceiling paint disaster. Instead, it looks fresh and flawless. While painting, Cleveland noticed that our attempts to "cut" our kitchen were pretty crooked. He asked if we had the paint left over and redid the walls where they meet the ceiling to offer us a more professional look. He also noticed that our crown molding had never been caulked. He offered to do this for us as well before leaving. This willingness to do some extra work to truly make our home look polished goes above and beyond. Cleveland is kind, careful, attentive, and professional. I have already recommended him to my family members and spoken with him about returning for another job at my home."

"Manny was very quick to respond. He stayed in contact with me during the week to ensure I understood what I was paying for and he wanted to ensure he understood what I was requesting. Communication was key for me because it showed he valued me as a customer and he wanted to do the job. The painters were right on time at 8:00 and did exactly what was needed. I needed 2 bedrooms painted and had some patchwork needed from shelving that was on the wall and a black design on a wall that needed covering up. While I wouldn’t say the job was perfect (there is some paint on the ceiling and baseboards, which I wish wasn’t there. I like even painting without smudges or runoffs from the edges) I’m not nitpicking. There was some cleanup left behind for me, but very minor. Very professional and nice and I’m glad I called! Will probably use again. I have 2 bathrooms and a bedroom next on the list."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

If your popcorn ceiling is asbestos-free and you are ready for a new look, painting is an option. As long as there is no flaking or other wear, a new coat of paint might be just the thing to refresh the old ceiling. The best way to paint a popcorn ceiling is to use either a paint sprayer or a thick roller to cover the popcorn texture fully. (Do not forget to dust it off beforehand!)

“Note that if you eventually want to remove the popcorn ceiling, a painted ceiling is a labor-intensive job to remove and will cost more,” says Bob Tschudi. “Once painted, the process of removing the popcorn ceiling requires physical scraping as opposed to a spray-and-scrape approach. It’s very labor-intensive, and thus more costly.”

When steaming falls short, consider utilizing a commercial texture remover tailored for popcorn ceiling removal. Adhere closely to the manufacturer's guidelines and conduct a preliminary test in an inconspicuous spot to verify compatibility with your ceiling. This specialized product offers an alternative solution for stubborn texture removal, potentially streamlining the process while safeguarding the integrity of your ceiling surface. Remember, products like these may be high-VOC, so wear protective gear.

Some pros may recommend covering a popcorn ceiling that tests positive for asbestos with beadboard ceiling planks or drywall. The cost to install a beadboard ceiling averages more than $5,000, but you likely will pay more than the average for the installer to deal with the asbestos safely. Installing a beadboard ceiling or new drywall will disturb the asbestos and release some microscopic fibers, so the installer will need to take precautions. 

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.
