"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."

"Their two installers for the carpeting, Roberto and Miguel, took great care in installing the new carpeting, disposing of the old and cleaning up after completing the job. Excellent craftsmen."

"Kelvin and his crew are amazing! Kelvin came out for the estimate, and I liked him so much that I hired him on the spot, which I never do! He and Miguel were out the next day to power wash my house and screened porch. My house and porch have never looked cleaner! The following day the painting crew arrived bright and early to get started with painting the ceiling and the exterior of the porch. The day after that, Miguel and crew were back to paint the trim, stain the interior of the porch and do some light repairs that were needed. Kelvin, Miguel and the rest of the crew are polite, friendly, hardworking and do a great job! I highly recommend KK Custom Painting Inc., and will be using them again in the future- potentially the very near future, as I have some projects they will be estimating for me."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

Soundproofing enhances privacy, reduces ambient and external noise for improved concentration, and creates a more comfortable living environment, especially in noisy neighborhoods or busy households. Additionally, it can improve the audio quality in spaces like home theaters.

As stylish new design options become more popular, modern drop ceiling designs also include metal tiles of tin and copper, which can create a dark, moody atmosphere in your basement bar, home theater, or game room. There are also a variety of modern lighting ideas for drop ceilings, including recessed and surface mount lights.

Although texturing walls may not seem like a lengthy project, you’ll need to set aside between one and five days to complete it properly. The exact amount will depend on the scope of your project—one room will take less than a whole-house project. That will give you enough time for tasks that are time-consuming in and of themselves, like taping wall edges, priming the walls and letting them dry fully, and actually applying the texture and top or base paint coats. 

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.

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.
