"The entire Strictly Ceilings team did a fantastic job! The new ceiling looks great, and everything was completed in a very timely fashion. Christine in the office also did a wonderful job of scheduling, following up, and making sure all our needs were met."

"Rich came to give us a quote the same day we called. He told us what items could be cleaned and saved and what had to be disposed of. He took the time and explained everything thoroughly. The next morning his crew came on time and got right to work. Rich and the guys did a great job cleaning our basement. You would never know their was ever sewage in our basement. We are very happy with their work. We highly recommend Custom Craft Environmental."

"Chris was called about a small leak in our dining room ceiling. He immediately recognized it as mold, and recognized that the problem was likely more advanced than just the water damage on the ceiling. He cut out small parts of the walls near the joists and discovered our fairly significant mold problem. He secured the room and immediately gave us recommendations on the remediation, the predicted extent of the problem and the cost. This was discovered in early December (not the time of year you want to be displaced from your home due to mold) and despite his busy schedule, he and his crew set to work in the evenings to get our drywall down and the mold remediation begun. He kept us updated regularly on the progress of the project, as well as other developments he discovered. He provided sound recommendations, alternative options and reasonable pricing. He and his crew were neat and tidy, and performed excellent finish work. From beginning to end, we were only out of the house for about a week due to the chemicals being used and having a small child and dog. Chris stands by his word and his work. He was reasonable on his pricing and went the extra mile to make sure the room looked fantastic. One of our return vents was broken in the process and he not only replaced it, but painted our other returns white so they would all match. He and his son went over our baseboards and window frames with a coat of murphy's oil soap to make the room shine. We have an older house that appears dated, but when they were done, the room obvious had had a facelift. We are bringing them back to do more projects this spring/summer."

"Watry Homes did a wonderful job with my roof.  Their people were on-time and very courteous.  I was super impressed by how well they cleaned up after themselves and how wonderful they were with my kids running around - always wanting to see what they were doing.
They did the roof a few years back, and it still looks great - no problems.  I called them again now that I'm ready to get the windows replaced. Once again, they were complete professionals -on time and very knowledgeable."

"Went great - had 4 guys including a guy who really knew how to lay on the mud to fill the cracks.
They used drop cloths in all rooms.  I purchased the paint,  They did two coats in all rooms.
Neat - virtually no spillover to the colored walls.  They mesh reinforced all cracks, then mudded and then painted.
Six months later cracks still unnoticeable, ceiling look like painted yesterday.  No sore back for me.

Popcorn Ceilings questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

How long it takes to repair a ceiling depends on the extent of the damage. Patching a small hole might only take a few minutes, while repairing a water-damaged section of the ceiling could take hours. If there are structural issues, expect your ceiling repair to take several days or longer.

Older textures may contain asbestos, requiring careful handling and professional inspection before work begins to ensure safety compliance.

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.
