"The Dowell family arrived promptly and began extensive repair of plaster walls and ceilings. They were professional, flexible and did extra work without increasing the original bid. They were clean and finished earlier than expected. They repaired problem areas where drywall and plaster joined. They repaired large holes in garage. The quality of the work is exceptional and the price was the fairest, least inflated that we received. We had to wait 3 weeks for start day but it was well worth it. They noticed so much plaster damage that we did not see and restored the integrity of the walls of our childhood home in preparation for selling. Thank you for the beautiful work."

"Lockwood personnel are skilled, professional, punctual and they clean up after themselves. They completed a tricky ceiling repair while maintaining my wall border. They did the drywall, mud and then painted it and added texture to match the rest of the ceiling. I know where the damage was and I could not tell once they were done. They also treated prior water stains and damage around a light fixture. The workers treated my home as their own and took great pains to get it right, and they cleaned up when they were done. I was also not afraid to have their workers in my home. It's as if nothing happened only better because now my ceiling looks new again. Having dealt with, and been disappointed by, many contractors over the years, this is the first review I've written because I was very satisfied with the pricing, scheduling and most of all the quality and outcome of the work done. I'm preparing my list of projects for them to tackle next."

"ATTENTION PEOPLE. These guys are the BEST. HANDS DOWN ! they stopped out within a couple of hours of me contacting them, gave me a bid on the spot. Began working on my project 2 days later. They adjusted their bid to fit my budget. This company did a FANTASTIC job painting my eaves and soffit, yet the peaks were about 35 feet off the ground. Did a FANTASTIC Job cleaning the areas afterwards. They even took it upon themselves to clean my gutters without me asking. How nice is that. They deserve 10 stars. Don't waste your time in searching for a good painter, JUST CALL THEM FIRST! you will not be disappointed. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Im extremely happy."

"They were very upfront on the scope of repairs, and they were honest about the scheduled time frame. This roof repair was to replace some plywood and shingles. Zykan had done a compete shingle roof replacement within the last year. Due to that experience, we reached out to them again without any hesitation."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos. All residential building materials used since the mid-1980s stopped including asbestos, so new popcorn ceilings have no risk of asbestos. You can still create a textured drywall ceiling with a popcorn texture if you like, but new techniques have no risk of adding asbestos. 

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity due to their outdated appearance, difficult maintenance, and potential health risks. Ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos, which poses a serious health hazard if disturbed. As design trends have shifted towards sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now favor smoother ceilings that offer a cleaner look and easier upkeep.

However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as acoustic dampening and the ability to hide imperfections. Some people also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective option. Ultimately, whether a popcorn ceiling is 'bad' depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic of the home.

Smooth ceilings create a modern, clean look that helps brighten rooms by reflecting light, making spaces feel more open. They're easy to paint and maintain but can show imperfections. Textured ceilings add character and hide flaws like cracks or uneven drywall. With a range of patterns, you can opt for a subtle texture or something more decorative. The choice between smooth and textured ceilings comes down to your personal style and the look you want for your space.

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.
