Best popcorn ceiling pros near Dayton, MD

"Excellent work - cannot see the seam between the old ceiling and the new section of drywall. Used the right amount of coatings and primer. Covered surfaces prior to working and cleaned up afterwards. A real professional."

"Removal of old plaster ceiling and replace with new drywall ceiling. The job was done quickly and professionally and everything was cleaned up thoroughly to my satisfaction."

"The owner, Mr. Henry is extremely knowledgeable and his crews are well trained. Their work ethic is to fix rather than politely chalk and paint-over problems. Three times more expensive than a regular house painter, but for drywall work (like scary cracks in the ceilings), you are purchasing confidence& in longterm corrections. These folks deserve full marks. Jeff&Deb Lowman"

"They did a good job repairing the hole in our ceiling"

"My wife and I had an excellent experience having our kitchen designed/installed and new flooring installed. Dan Millard of American Kitchen Concepts, Inc. is someone I would highly recommend. From the very beginning, when we were exploring the idea of getting this done, Dan answered all of our questions. I was particularly curious as to what a kitchen remodel costs and Dan was completely up-front in what to expect.

When we decided this was something we were going to do, Dan scheduled several meetings over the course of a few weeks. I didn't realize all of the decisions that had to be made and having separate meetings allowed us to take things one step at a time. When we were indecisive, Dan was always understanding and patient. After he came out to measure, we were able to see what was possible in our cabinet layout. Seeing the options available in his showroom really helped us decide what we liked. We were able to take samples home so we could see how they actually looked.

When it came to picking appliances, it was nice to be able to shop for our appliances and then use Dan's contact to have delivery coordinated by him. We ended up paying for the appliances separately from the kitchen remodel contract, with the delivery handled by Dan.

Dan really did an excellent job designing a lighting plan. Our previous kitchen was very dark, with only one light. He gave us six recessed ceiling lights and under-cabinet LED lights. And for me this included a strip of lights hidden from view right over the sink linked to a different switch. No more darkness or shadows doing dishes.

When it came to installation we had some delay getting started due to bad weather which was beyond control. The winter of 2015/2016 was exceptionally snowy. Once scheduled, things took place within three weeks. It went as Dan described it would, with a lot of work happening some days, little on others. The hardwood flooring went in our entry way, kitchen, powder room, dining room and living room. There was definitely temporary inconvenience for permanent improvement.

Dan provided a dumpster for us as promised so we could get rid of a bunch of our household junk, including an old couch. One trip of his dumpster was for just our junk. It was very nice to have this hauled away for us.

There were a few issues along the way. A few of the outer faces of our cabinets were damaged in transit on the edges. Dan had new skins sent for all so everything looked pristine. We had some nails around the edge of our flooring that needed wood putty, and this was taken care of. The innards of our powder room toilet leaked after re-installation and Dan took care of having this fixed. The two covers for the toilet bolts went missing but Dan had new ones purchased and installed. And lastly, a few months later when our new touch faucet started acting up, he came out to replace the base of it. This was truly going above and beyond.

Dan Millard of American Kitchen Concepts, Inc. is someone I would recommend without hesitation. Even if you are just considering a remodel I recommend you give Dan a call and visit his showroom."

"I have hesitated to write this review because the company was supposed to send someone out to do a touchup the next time they were in my area, but they never came.  Since where the touch up is needed (a corner of the tub) isn't really noticeable to me, and as more and more time went by, I just let it go. This is the reason I downgraded "responsiveness" to a B. Otherwise I would have given an A grade because the men who did the work were excellent.
My advice: Don't pay immediately after the job is finished but wait for a bill. That way if something needs to be fixed, the company will have an incentive to send someone out. Since I had already paid in full, there was no such incentive.
I was surprised at the size of the exhaust hose that is used while the tub finish is being applied. Because my bathroom is small, the hose had to go down the front hall and out the front door. Fortunately, the weather was not cold. The finish had to cure before the rest of the work could be completed. The smell wasn't pleasant, but it was tolerable.
I don't remember if it was the next day or two days later that the wall surround was put up over the existing tile, the ceiling lined, and a new drain and new fixtures installed. The installer was a different man from the one who had applied the glaze. He worked very hard, as it wasn't an easy job, due to some irregularities in the bathtub tile area. He also screwed in the grip bars that had to be removed before the wall lining could go up.
All in all I was satisfied with the work, although the caulking that was used gets moldy, and the mold is hard to remove. The wall surround and ceiling, however, do not attract mold, hallelujah.  I thought the price was right. I'm glad I had the work done.

"Cleveland is very honest and fair with his pricing. He did wonderful job replacing and painting my living room ceiling. I would definitely hire him again"

"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."

"Refrigerate was large and heavy. During removal the men accidentally destroyed a ceiling fixture in the house foyer while attempting to move the SubZero by a hand dolly. I accepted this as the cost of removing the unit at my schedule.
