"Wilber’s painting repaired our textured basement ceiling and painted the entire ceiling. They came on time and were great to deal with. They helped discuss the situation with the insurance company, which helped us get everything approved in an expedited fashion. We would definitely recommend Wilber’s Painting to others!"

"Nicolle Paint did an outstanding job for us. We live in an older home which has plaster walls and ceilings. Over the last several years we have noticed cracks and crevices in our downstairs ceilings that were getting larger with each passing year. Moyses from Nicolle Paint came out and identified the problem and gave us a fair and competitive estimate. They started their work after completely containing the affected rooms with tape and drop clothes. When they finished, we were amazed and wished we had done the repairs sooner. The ceilings are now smooth, and with a fresh coat of paint. They did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. We can't thank Moyses enough. We highly recommend Nicolle Paint."

"How did it go? I initially thought the walkway would require a compete replacement however Mr. Campbell was prepared to offer several far less expensive options. His team expertly filled-in, patched and painted the entire walkway to the point it looks like new. I am also completely satisfied with the job done repairing both ceilings. Mr. Campbell’s teams did a excellent job patching and painting damage done by the bathroom leaks. There is no evidence of there ever having been a problem."

"First item on my list, he was real responsive and came by, and he put up a ceiling fan and a back porch motion detector light. EXCELLENT JOB! I recommend him for those. Both were installed VERY well. Really, he did great, and was professional, and helped me out a lot. But since that first visit, he has not been responsive to my emails (one response a couple days later, and then nothing since, I even sent out another email just in case he missed it in his inbox, and now my wife is getting impatient for the items to be done). My jobs I needed might have been more small potatoes than his expertise was for. So, I'm trying someone else instead. Like I said, I should probably be able to do all of these things on my list myself. But if you need a ceiling fan or motion detector installed, I totally recommend him, good price for the excellent work. I guess it didn't work out for me for the other stuff."

"In the past, we’ve typically hired general contractors based on solicitations at our home. This has unfortunately resulted in more than a few misses. But we went through Angi this time and the pro we chose, Omar’s General Contracting, was definitely a hit. Omar was professional and communicative. His crew was great. On time, very tidy, reasonably priced, flexible, and a perfect finished product. We hired them on Sunday and they started on Monday. In two days, Omar and his crew were able to basically rebuild our entire eat-in kitchen ceiling following a large plumbing project. I honestly think it looks better now than it did before the work. Amazing. We wont be needing referrals for general contractors in the future. We’ve found our company. Thank you for the great referral, Angi and team."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it’s an outdated look, despite there being so many types of drywall texture. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother’s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it’s time to smooth out your walls.

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.

Knockdown hides imperfections better than orange peel due to its thicker, more varied pattern. The valleys and peaks make flaws less visible under lighting. However, note that knockdown walls will collect more dust and dirt, so be prepared to wipe them away more frequently than you would with orange peel.

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.

It depends on the type of texture you’re adding but yes, you can often use a roller to texturize a ceiling. The roller needs to be able to hold enough medium to create some relief on the ceiling but not so much that gravity will pull it off before it dries. Using a roller with a nap between ½” and ¾” will allow the roller to hold enough material to do the trick.
