"I put off repairing the hole in ceiling because of its awkward location above a stairwell and the prospect of matching the repair with the extension of the ceiling 20 feet above the bottom of the steps. Henry and Miguel came in with the best price by far and were able to knock out the job in two, four hour mornings, one to repair and scrape off the popcorn and the second to paint the ceiling. The repaired ceiling looks fantastic! If I had known it would have gone this smoothly, I would have had them fix the ceiling ages ago. When they were done, they even took the time to knock out a couple of minor five minute jobs for me. I cannot recommend H&M Contractor highly enough and I will definitely contact Henry and his team the next time I have a home repair/improvement project in the future."

"JK Custom Painting exceeded all our expectations. Kellyn’s communication was prompt and excellent throughout the entire process. Jairo’s attention to detail is truly unmatched — the quality of his work is exceptional. We had a large project, our home is over 4,300 sq ft. All surfaces were painted including ceilings, closets, kitchen and bathroom cabinets, walls, and trim. They completely removed popcorn ceilings and wallpaper, repaired all surfaces meticulously, and prepped everything to perfection. You’d never know the popcorn ceilings were ever there. They also offered thoughtful suggestions on paint textures and colors, which really elevated the final look. Most importantly, their top priority was our satisfaction, and it shows in every detail of their work. We exceptionally happy with the results!"

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

If your popcorn ceiling has noticeable cracks, you may want to have it checked by a professional before cleaning it. Adding any moisture or disturbing the ceiling may worsen the cracks, so find out if your ceiling needs to be repaired by a local contractor before cleaning.

Popcorn ceilings can be relatively easy to keep clean with regular maintenance. Avoid exposing it to smoke if possible—popcorn ceilings tend to collect stains from smoke, including those from cigarettes or cooking. With proper care, you can clean your popcorn ceiling anywhere from every six months to a year—or as needed.

In most cases, it is worth removing popcorn ceilings because they are considered outdated and can make a home more difficult to sell. Buyers typically prefer a smooth, modern finish, so removing the texture can increase a home's value and appeal. The necessity can sometimes depend on the housing market; in a competitive market, buyers may be more willing to overlook minor renovations. The most critical factor is the potential presence of asbestos, which is common in older popcorn ceilings and poses a significant health hazard if the material deteriorates. If you know your ceiling contains asbestos, you are required to disclose this when selling, which can be a major deterrent for buyers. In this situation, it is highly recommended to have a professional remove or encapsulate the ceiling to resolve the issue before it impacts the sale.

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.

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.
