"

The ceiling in my Great room had major cracks (tape pealing off, corner beads cracked) that required major work. Due to the height (19 feet) scaffolding was required and the job took several days. In addition they repaired the tray ceiling in the master as well as cracks in the kitchen. Fabio does excellent work and would use him again (already have). The one minor recommendation is for a better clean up. We all know dry wall is messy but that would really help. Thanks Fabio

"They were very slow to complete the project and I needed to follow up quite a few times. Good that the project was an outdoor project and also that I had flexible completion date otherwise, it would have been very messy. Work quality was not up to the mark till I followed up and made them adjust things. The end product is very good."

"I closed on a house that had wall-to-wall carpet in most of the rooms a week before going on vacation. I contacted Five Star and Ricardo responded right away, we scheduled for him to come see the job that needed to be done (he was very punctual), and did the work while I was away and the house was still empty. I had 2 other estimates and his price was the most reasonable. Since the house was empty and some of the work had to be done at night there were some minor issues such as a few staples (literally about 5) that were not fully removed and a spot that was missed due to lack of adequate lighting. Ricardo showed up to take care of those issues himself. Ricardo was alway courteous and professional."

"Philips did a great job. He patiently put up with frequent questions. The installation of cabinets was only part of the job. There was also the removal of a pop corn ceiling, replacement of a bathroom ceiling and dry wall replacement. All of this came at a cost less than I expected and he remained personable throughout the entire job. Also, pop corn ceiling removal is a messy job and his clean-up of the space at completion was remarkable. I would hire him again."

"Overall, highly professional work - wall patches were done well, unrecognizable after painting. Sharp cuts between walls and molding, and ceiling and walls. Everyone was also respectful of the rest of the home."

"Initially, I thought that the price was a little high, but after we saw the quality of the work performed, I had no complaints. Derek and crew spent substantial time prepping the ceiling and walls and the excellent results showed it.  Great care was taken to cover furniture and rugs.  Derek was very professional and a pleasure to work with.  I would definitely use him again and would recommend him to others.

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

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.

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.

Popcorn ceiling textures can enhance acoustic properties, while their removal or repair modernizes appearance and resolves health concerns from old asbestos.
