Get matched with top popcorn ceiling pros in Rosebud, TX

Q: Can you cover popcorn ceilings instead of removing them?

• <div><p>Yes, you can cover a popcorn ceiling, which is often more cost-effective and easier than scraping it off. Common methods include using ceiling-grade drywall, applying a skim coat, or installing beadboard panels to create a smooth, updated finish. Covering the ceiling can also protect you from asbestos exposure if the material contains it. However, it's important to note that this method only seals off the asbestos and does not eliminate it, which could be a concern for future renovations or home resale. If you suspect your ceiling contains asbestos, it's best to hire a local asbestos abatement company to test the material and manage its safe removal.</p></div>

Q: Is removing a wall texture hard?

• <div><p>Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can&rsquo;t soften the texture with water. Instead, you&rsquo;ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.</p></div>

Q: What’s the purpose of textured walls?

• <div><p>Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it&rsquo;s an outdated look, despite there being so many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/drywall-texture-tips-and-trends.htm">types of drywall texture</a>. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother&rsquo;s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it&rsquo;s time to smooth out your walls. </p></div>

Q: Are there safety concerns with older popcorn ceilings that contain asbestos?

• <div><p>Older textures may contain asbestos, requiring careful handling and professional inspection before work begins to ensure safety compliance.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint a popcorn ceiling?

• <div><p>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-paint-popcorn-ceilings.htm">paint a popcorn ceiling</a> 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!)</p><p>&ldquo;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,&rdquo; says Bob Tschudi. &ldquo;Once painted, the process of removing the popcorn ceiling requires physical scraping as opposed to a spray-and-scrape approach. It&rsquo;s very labor-intensive, and thus more costly.&rdquo;</p></div>

"Great! Jeff arrived early for the tenant-requested 8 AM appointment even though he had what must have been an hour's drive to get there. He went about his business professionally and (importantly) honestly, checking for signs of mold. He concluded that there was not a mold problem, and gave the tenant and me the details of how he came to his conclusion. He was thoroughly knowledgeable of his vocation. There was no charge for the housecall. To show my appreciation for all that he did, I tried to pay for his breakfast. While he appreciated my gesture, he graciously declined."

"
They just did not do a very good job of cleaning my house. They need to do a better job. They did dry dusting and left a thin film of dust everywhere because they did not damp dust. All I wanted them to do is deep clean the house until I got there. They would not touch the appliances, they left dust on the shelves and they left cobwebs in the corners of the windows. They just did a terrible job.
