"The project involved water damage to my living room ceiling. Kathleen Dominic and Zach are an excellent team. Zach showed up on time. He laid protective covers for my furniture and wood flooring. The texture blending with my original ceiling was flawless. Zach did a thorough cleanup. I would highly recommend this company"

"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

"Overall, we are pleased with the work. Kevin and his crew arrived on time every day and worked until about 3pm, leaving the after school and dinner hours to ourselves. He graciously accepted changes to the job and worked around my chair lifts...I am handicapped. The finished walls and ceilings look very nice. However, the job took nearly a month, which was far longer than anticipated, even giving extra time for scraping. The dust and mess were very difficult to deal. Also, there is paint on the carpet and the bathroom sinks, and the brand new toilet lids are scratched beyond repair from dust being ground into them and have to be replaced."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Knockdown hides imperfections better than orange peel due to its thicker, more varied pattern. The valleys and peaks make flaws less visible under lighting. However, note that knockdown walls will collect more dust and dirt, so be prepared to wipe them away more frequently than you would with orange peel.

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.

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. 

Yes, you just may need to add an extra coat or two of primer to already painted ceilings. This will help mask the old paint and give you a fresh canvas on which to add your new texture.

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.
