"Words cannot express how happy I am that I found Matt to help me paint my new home! Not only did he finish the job of painting three rooms ceilings, trim, and walls in less than two days, he quoted me an extremely fair price and he did an amazing job. Matt took pride in his work, wanted to make sure everything was perfect, and that I was one hundred percent satisfied with the job. I have now found my handy man for life! If you need any work done in your home (because he does a lot more than paint) I highly recommend him. Thank you so much Matt for everything!"

"Needed walls and ceiling repaired after plumber found water leak. E and E did a great job, so I hired them to paint my living space. Another job well done. Ceiling now white, walls pale yellow, doors, wood trim, baseboards a nice clean white. Daniel is conscientious and his team did a wonderful job of covering my furniture, wood floor and carpets to avoid any drips. Thank you to Daniel, Doug, Isaiah, Ashe and Scott."

"While painting they made sure my home was protected by covering the carpets and went above and beyond by fixing some wall outlet covers at no extra charge, they did an outstanding job painting my basement also. I would highly recommend them and will be using them for my future pairing needs"

"I have used Lockwood before for painting. I left a message 6-18-19, Ken returned my call and visited our house on time for the appointment. He said he was a few weeks behind but put us on the schedule. He emailed a proposal. I mailed him a deposit of $340. The workers came by appointment 7-29-19, on time, friendly and polite. They finished the morning of 7-30-19, cleaned up thoroughly. The work looks great. The plaster repair is invisible. The ugly, stained porch ceiling looks like new. This is the second time I've used them. There's never wasted time or confusion and they do a neat, beautiful job."

"I have used Zykan to replace hail damaged roofs on 2 of my houses. Both events were handled with professional services, great communication and a quality install. Throughout the process, Will and his team did an outstanding job from initial roof inspection through final clean-up. We love our new roof! Would highly recommend using Zykan for any roofing need."

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 The primary drawbacks include an outdated appearance, difficulty with cleaning and maintenance, and potential health risks, as ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos.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.

Yes, you can cover a popcorn ceiling, which is often more cost-effective and easier than scraping it off. Common methods include using ceiling-grade drywall, applying a skim coat, or installing beadboard panels to create a smooth, updated finish. Covering the ceiling can also protect you from asbestos exposure if the material contains it. However, it's important to note that this method only seals off the asbestos and does not eliminate it, which could be a concern for future renovations or home resale. If you suspect your ceiling contains asbestos, it's best to hire a local asbestos abatement company to test the material and manage its safe removal.

Older textures may contain asbestos, requiring careful handling and professional inspection before work begins to ensure safety compliance.

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.

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.
