"I have had them out three separate times in 2 months. They finished a remodel of a kitchen by painting the walls ceiling and trim, also stained wooden beams to match floors. Wes was the only contractor that said he would take the time to get samples of stains mixed to match the floors to test before they were actually completed. Now they are finishing up removing the popcorn from the ceilings in 2 other rooms and 2 hallways. Also painted walls in front 2 rooms. Wes and his crew were on time and reliable. I know I am going to get a professional job every time."

"Carolina Painting and Remodeling did an amazing job with my living room. They helped me choose the perfect color, offered great advice, and were able to come on short notice. The team completed the entire painting project in just one day, including replacing the molding and moving all the furniture back into place. Their professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail were outstanding. I’m extremely happy with the results and highly recommend them"

Customers say: Quality work

"The job could not have gone any better! My ceiling is popcorn finished and thirty years old, so matching the color was a concern. I contacted David and sent him pictures of the hole. He provided a written proposal which described the job in detail along with a quote. We agreed on a date and time and David said he would give me a 30 minute notice prior to arrival. David showed up on time, completed the repair, and cleaned up afterwards. Bottom line, everything was perfect. I can’t even find a seam! I would definitely recommend AB Drywall to anyone."

"Great honest contractors. They did my bathrooms, hot water heater, unclogged my house drain and they did a French drain so my basement is not wet anymore. I already hired them to do my whole roof in the spring. I will hire them anytime."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

No, not all popcorn ceilings have asbestos, but a vast majority do. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned its use in 1973, although it still may have been used up through the early ‘90s. But, in general, homes built or remodeled before the early ‘80s likely utilized materials with asbestos. That being said, a professional test is the only way to determine for sure.

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.

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

If your popcorn ceiling is asbestos-free and you are ready for a new look, painting is an option. As long as there is no flaking or other wear, a new coat of paint might be just the thing to refresh the old ceiling. The best way to paint a popcorn ceiling is to use either a paint sprayer or a thick roller to cover the popcorn texture fully. (Do not forget to dust it off beforehand!)

“Note that if you eventually want to remove the popcorn ceiling, a painted ceiling is a labor-intensive job to remove and will cost more,” says Bob Tschudi. “Once painted, the process of removing the popcorn ceiling requires physical scraping as opposed to a spray-and-scrape approach. It’s very labor-intensive, and thus more costly.”

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.
