"Josue was extremely professional and an overall pleasure to work with. He and his team always arrived promptly, and regularly communicated with me regarding their progress and anticipated completion date. The project involved removal of a popcorn ceiling and installation of new insulation and drywall. The space was left spotless upon completion. I highly recommend Josue and his team!"

"It is with deep satisfaction that I recommend Grady?s Painting and Plastering & Construction. Mr. George Grady is a skilled craftsman. He was hired to correct long neglected and extensive masonry and window issues on a large, beautiful Presbyterian Church built in the Civil War era in Philadelphia. The property was neglected with only minimal maintenance performed over the last 40+ years. The building was in severe decline and in need of stabilization and restoration on many fronts. Cracked ledge plates were chipped out and reestablished, internal walls damaged by leakage were broken out and repaired, brickwork was repointed and in severe cases reestablished to original strength and beauty. Leaks around the base of the building were addressed to stabilize deterioration of the foundation. Large rotted window sills under beautiful stained glass windows were restored after significant masonry reestablishment due to water damage under the rotted out sills. Broken and missing stained glass windows are in the process of repair and replacement. The process started with new metal frames cast by Mr. Grady. The new frames will hold clear painted replications of the original stained glass, also crafted by Mr. Grady. Regular windows all around the church and manse were also repaired and restored. Roof leaks were accurately identified and repaired. A sagging plaster ceiling has been torn out and restored. All this work was done by Mr. Grady alone or with an occasional helper. He worked with care, expertise and respect for the original structure. The results far exceeded our expectations and have injected new life into a building on the brink. This building, owned by the Presbytery of Philadelphia, now houses a new urban ministry in a newly gentrifying area of the city. We are happy to have had the good fortune to be connected to Grady's Painting and Plastering & Construction"

"Great! G R Scantling had me text them a photo of the ceiling damage, they gave me an estimate and we set up an appointment for the repair. Joey and Nick (brothers) arrived promptly, repaired the hole with perfectionism and cleaned up the mess afterward! Not only did they take pride in their work, but they were very friendly. Couldn't be happier."

"Got bids from 3 recommended contractors who had all done work for friends. Cisco Contracting assessed the problem well and gave a highly competitive price to replace the full ceiling, but suggested that could probably fix the area of apparent defect even cheaper and faster, Discovered that the 100 year old ceiling was nailed, not screwed, in, the joists were uneven, and the remaining ceiling was poorly secured, gaping several inched towards the center of the room. Previous repairs had added inches of plaster and many, many pounds of weight. Recommended strongly that entire ceiling be removed, and joists shimmed to parallel so that ceiling boards could be securely screwed to the joists. Only took one more (long) day. Final price keep to original quote to do the full ceiling (including shimming the joists), which was less than half of one of the other quotes. Great communication; showed us the problem as soon as discovered. Cleaned up well. We then hired them for several other larger projects."

"Had water pipe freeze and burst in master bath ceiling on Christmas Eve AM. Tony was out here by early afternoon and had plumbing fixed by later afternoon. The ceiling had fallen in and by noon on the 27th everything was restored! Tony kept in touch throughout and the work was excellent. Can't praise highly enough."

"I have had the best experiences with the Plumb Magic crew.  I think I have met most of them so far!  They came and ran a gas line across our house to the generator that was installed.  The day before they came out for the gas line, our outside spigot broke, and was pouring water in, so I had them fix that after they installed the gas line, as well as a leak from a previous plumber.  Then they came and set all the fixtures for the final install in the basement bathroom, as well as re-piped the sewer ejector pump vent and waste line to be more efficient, and cleaned out said pit since debris was left in there.  A month or 2 after that, the ejector pump died that previous bad plumber installed, so they installed a new one.  Michael actually came by to bring the pump,and check the job.  Next was a leak in the ceiling of the basement bathroom on a Sunday after Christmas.  So they came out the following Monday to repair it.  I have called them on many weekends and gotten on their schedule for non-emergency issues the next business day.  
If I had used Plumb Magic from the beginning of my basement finishing project, I could have saved myself a lot of money, and headaches!  Plumb Magic will now, and forever be my go to plumbers!  I have recommended them to several friends and will continue to.  Thank you!

"Mr. Barnes was extremely prompt in his responses and scheduling to come bid on the job and the very reasonable in his time frame to begin and complete the job (within 2-3 weeks).  He kept in contact with me on a regular basis and performed extra work I requested for minimal additional cost.  He was professional in all his interactions.  The majority of the work was patching portions of a ceiling and it is difficult to match sections of a smooth ceiling. The work was very good, but there were minor imperfections.  He quoted a price which included painting the ceiling as well which made him a better choice for me as it was one stop shopping.  I would use him again and recommend him to anyone for their drywall work.

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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. 

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.

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.
