"EXCEPTIONAL OUTSTANDING WORK!! Paul and his professional crew are the true premier artists. Incredible how they not only eliminated all the cracks but Paul perfectly matched the intricate rope design on the den ceiling and swirl designs in living room. The house looks brand new and fabulous! Wow! I never expected Castle to be this great after having been disappointed by failed repair attempts in past years. The entire crew were friendly, prompt, stayed on schedule and cleaned up afterwards. The price was very reasonable, especially considering the extent of repairs needed. No wonder everyone raves about Castle!"

"Over promised and under delivered. Originally said they could have my whole front porch painted . Came to the job and then said they couldn't paint the ceiling (after I ran out and bought more paint). 4 hours into the project they said they would have all of the white trim painted by the time they left. Only completed 3/4ths of the white trim."

"I'm absolutely thrilled with the work Tommy, Brian and Lou did in my 1962 era kitchen and den. They transformed a two dark and dated rooms into bright and beautiful living spaces. I could tell from the first time I met them that they love what they do and it shows in their work. They communicated with me every step of the way and they went above and beyond expectations. I plan to use Tommy's company again to complete the other projects on my list.

"After the repair was done I noticed a leak in my bathroom ceiling where one of the roof vents were replaced. I called the Subcontractor Brian on a Saturday morning. The weather was cold and raining. He was at my house within the hour up on the roof and fixed the leak. I havent had any leaks since. I would hire Brain the Subcontractor again."

Popcorn Ceilings FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.”

It is often less expensive to cover a popcorn ceiling instead of removing it. Installing drywall costs $1.50 to $3 per square foot, whereas popcorn ceiling removal averages $7 per square foot. Another option may be installing beadboard panels over top, giving your ceiling a fresh and modern look.

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.
