"I hired Al to paint and do minor touch up to my fathers house to get it ready for sale. After seeing his great work, I decided that I would hire him to do work at my house. I had him install a new back door and screen door. he installed new lights above my kitchen cabinets, he finished the vinyl floor in my bathroom, he hung a new ceiling fan. He redid the dry wall in my bathroom around my tub. He is very punctual, he is very detailed on making sure everything is right. I also have in on schedule to do a few more jobs. Great job Al and to his helper, go teamwork."

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"Nate immediately responded to my Angie's List inquiry. I texted him pictures of the ceiling damage and he gave me some initial feedback. I asked him to stop by and look at the ceiling. He did a thorough inspection and took the time to explain how plaster works, how it can be damaged and to answer our questions before providing a written estimate including the estimated start date and amount of time to complete the job. He asked for 1/3 of the total estimate up front. He had a crew of 2 capable people. He supervised them the first day and then came in at the end to inspect the work and get my approval before giving him the final payment. He communicated with me regularly on coordinating work times. They also were very careful to cover up with plastic and left very little mess. Note: we had 3-5 areas on the living room ceiling, 1 in the dining room, 1 in the kitchen, 2 in the bathroom, and 1 in the bedroom."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Challenges include potential asbestos exposure, uneven finishes, or damage to the underlying ceiling if not done correctly.

Professionals use spraying or painting machines for application, skimming and filling for repairs, or specialized scraping techniques for safe removal.

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.

Because of the nature of the texture, it's common for the popcorn texture to loosen while painting. Popcorn ceilings are delicate, and using a heavy hand with a roller or applying overly wet paint can loosen the texture. To avoid a mess, handle the material gently with a roller or brush. It's also smart to test a small area first, and if the texture starts coming off, the ceiling may need repairs or sealing before painting.

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.
