"NE plastering restored my kitchen ceiling with a beautiful plaster ceiling. A pipe freeze destroyed the old ceiling, and I am extremely happy with Mr. Hernandez' work. There was further damage in the upstairs bath and now the new plaster walls are smooth and ready for paint and paper. I highly recommend this expert plasterer. Gérald Crôteau"

"I can't say enough about Mario and the work that he did. He was prompt when we met for him to survey the area to be painted and provided an initial estimate, which he confirmed with a follow up email less than a day later. He was extremely professional and neat - we were also replacing our carpets so we were fine with him not using drop cloths. He did not get a spot of paint on the carpet. The job involved patching the walls and painting a combined living/dining room, kitchen, hallway, and staircase (including ceilings) and he was done in 2 1/2 days. At the end of each day, he left the house tidy with all his equipment set aside out of the way. I will definitely call him again when we decide to paint other rooms in the house. I highly recommend Mario - you will not be disappointed!"

"I contacted various contractors on Angie's List and Home Advisor to have my water damaged bathroom ceiling replaced. Most were too busy or didn't even respond. I almost gave up until I contacted Steve and got an immediate response. Steve came quickly with his partner and looked at the job. He explained to me that he was finishing up with another job and then could start. He followed up sending me a written estimate along with a copy of his insurance (I didn't ask for it- I've never had a contractor volunteer his insurance info before). Although I got an email from another contractor, I already knew I wanted to go with Steve. Steve began on schedule and stayed with the job until he was finished. He was even sorry he couldn't come the Saturday after Thanksgiving because of plans with his family. He returned Monday and Tuesday as promised and finished the job. The work involved demolishing the ceiling, removing and replacing all the insulation, replacing the ceiling fan, installing new greenboard and finish. Steve perfectly matched the new drywall to the top of the existing walls. I couldn't be happier with his work. An added bonus is the care in keeping the area clean throughout. He placed drop cloths from the front door to the bathroom, cardboard on the tile floor, plastic on the bathroom walls and door to keep dust out. He finished each day by vacuuming the bathroom and the area of the rug he had walked on. Do not hesitate to hire Steve. He is very fussy about the perfection of his work, showing up on time, and communicating with you about the job from start to finish. Contractors like him are very rare these days. Thank you Steve."

"Steve was great. He fixed our ceiling that was botched by a previous contractor after removing 3 skylights. My only complaint is he was VERY expensive. $5,000 to redo our living room ceiling. This involved cutting out a large area of wallboard, cutting out some of the old skylight framing, installing furring strips, reinstalling wallboard, plastering, and painting. The end result was perfect though. He does great work."

"David was amazing to work with. He came quickly and provided reasonable estimate for the ceiling I needed repaired and painted. I spoke with him on Friday, he gave me an estimate on Saturday and started work first thing Monday morning. He finished on time and cleaned up when the work was completed. I highly recommend him and his team."

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

Popcorn ceilings have fallen out of popularity due to their outdated appearance, difficult maintenance, and potential health risks. Ceilings installed before the 1990s may contain asbestos, which poses a serious health hazard if disturbed. As design trends have shifted towards sleeker, more modern finishes, many homeowners now favor smoother ceilings that offer a cleaner look and easier upkeep.

However, popcorn ceilings do offer some benefits, such as acoustic dampening and the ability to hide imperfections. Some people also appreciate their retro charm or find them to be a cost-effective option. Ultimately, whether a popcorn ceiling is 'bad' depends on personal preference, safety concerns, and the overall aesthetic of the home.

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.

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. 

If your popcorn ceiling contains asbestos, you must hire a professional asbestos removal company to handle the disposal. If your popcorn ceiling does not have asbestos, you can call a popcorn ceiling removal specialist to handle the job. Otherwise, you can hire a drywall or painting professional to handle the job, depending on what you need done.

Priming a popcorn ceiling before painting is a good idea, especially if the ceiling is stained, discolored, or has never been painted. Interior paint primer helps seal the surface, preventing stains from bleeding through and allowing the paint to adhere better. Use a stain-blocking, water-based primer for best results.
