"They did an excellent job! They ended up painting our whole house including some ceilings. There was paint designs they had to cover up and you can’t even tell anything was ever there. They had to fix holes in the wall,etc. they did so well that we asked them to remodel a room for us. They combined two rooms into one and it looks awesome! I keep sending them requests for other things I’d like done!"

"Evetter, Pfafftown, NC Miguel Rios, from Rios Drywall, did an outstanding job in repairing and remodeling my bathroom. He removed wallpaper popcorn ceiling, painted the entire bathroom, replaced rotten wood, laid vinyl flooring, replaced toilet, vanity lights. He also painted my front porch and did other small touch-ups in the house. He was on time, courteous, knowledgeable, etc. His price was reasonable. I am excited about having Miguel complete other home improvements projects. I found his slogan, No job too Small or too Big to be very true."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Small repairs or applications can be DIY projects, but removing older textures, especially with safety risks, is usually left to professionals.

The average popcorn ceiling removal costs around $2,000, but prices can range from $950 to $3,100, depending on the size, accessibility, and whether or not there’s asbestos or lead paint. 

We don’t recommend DIYing this project to save money, but you can DIY the prep work to speed things up. Consider removing furniture, ceiling lights, and other fixtures before the workers arrive on site. To be extra helpful, cover any remaining belongings with plastic tarps and secure them with tape.

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 The primary drawbacks include an outdated appearance, difficulty with cleaning and maintenance, and potential health risks, as ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos.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

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. 

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