"Rob was great. I do not live in the area and he was in constant communication about what I wanted and how much I wanted to spend. He would send pictures of floor options, vents, faucets, sinks etc and prices. If I wanted something different, he was flexible and would discuss any issues there may be. I also would go look at bathroom supplies and send him my thoughts. We met up and went over what I wanted and then he was on his own. He is a one-man operation so if very busy and the people in the house said he was very conscientious. He also fixed the dining room ceiling and that looks great."

"Kevin was on time. He started to prepare my ceiling for repair plastering. Beside the crack I also had water stains & my swirls were gone! He covered my hanging lamp & put plastic & tape to protect the walls and surrounding area. When completed, my ceiling looked beautiful. You would never guess I had any problems in that area. He even swirled that area so it would blend in with the rest of my ceiling. Iâ m very satisfied with the results. When done, he vacuumed & wiped my floor on his hands & knees & cleaned everything up! I would not hesitate to hire PatchMaster again. I highly recommend them!"

I thought fit was a leak in the pipes. However, the toilet upstairs was leaking, which caused water to run down into the kitchen that made the ceiling leak. They were able to open up the ceiling, find the problem, and fixed the problem in such expediate timing. The work was excellent, and I would hire them from here on to fix any problem that I would have in the household.

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

In most cases, it is worth removing popcorn ceilings because they are considered outdated and can make a home more difficult to sell. Buyers typically prefer a smooth, modern finish, so removing the texture can increase a home's value and appeal. The necessity can sometimes depend on the housing market; in a competitive market, buyers may be more willing to overlook minor renovations. The most critical factor is the potential presence of asbestos, which is common in older popcorn ceilings and poses a significant health hazard if the material deteriorates. If you know your ceiling contains asbestos, you are required to disclose this when selling, which can be a major deterrent for buyers. In this situation, it is highly recommended to have a professional remove or encapsulate the ceiling to resolve the issue before it impacts the sale.

It depends on the type of texture you’re adding but yes, you can often use a roller to texturize a ceiling. The roller needs to be able to hold enough medium to create some relief on the ceiling but not so much that gravity will pull it off before it dries. Using a roller with a nap between ½” and ¾” will allow the roller to hold enough material to do the trick.

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.”

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

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.
