WHAT IS A POPCORN CEILING?

A popcorn ceiling is a textured surface resembling popped corn kernels, once popular in the 1960s and 1970s. However, over time, it can become unsightly. It’s primarily composed of plaster, glue, sand, and water, applied via spray gun to ceilings.

OUR PROCESS

Our process begins with the protection of your furniture, flooring and household items, ensuring they remain clean and protected during the entire project. Only after making sure your home is protected, our team proceeds to remove the outdated popcorn ceiling texture, leaving behind a clean slate for the transformation.

During this stage, we inspect the ceiling for any minor drywall imperfections that may have surfaced over time. Rest assured, these will be addressed during the process, ensuring that your ceiling is not only visually appealing but also structurally sound.

Finally, we bring your vision to life by applying the new ceiling texture of your choice. Whether you prefer the modern and sleek appeal of a smooth texture or the subtler charm of an orange peel finish, we have the expertise to create the ceiling you want. Our commitment to excellence guarantees that you’ll be left with a refreshed and modern ceiling, adding both aesthetic value and increasing the value of your home.

WHY REMOVE POPCORN CEILINGS?

There are many factors that fuel our recommendation to remove your popcorn ceilings, and aesthetics are just the beginning! Beyond appearance, these textured ceilings can pose health risks, lead to costly repairs and could lower the value of your home. Here are a few reasons why you should remove your outdated popcorn ceilings:

THEY CAN HOLD ONTO SMOKE, DUST & MOISTURE

Popcorn ceilings trap pollutants and moisture, a concern for households with children or pets. Pet dander can linger in these crevices, and indoor smoking near a popcorn ceiling can trap smoke particles, risking repeated exposure.

THEY CAN BE DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN

Once popular in the 1970s and 1980s, popcorn ceilings have fallen out of favor due to the need for regular maintenance. Their texture makes repairs difficult and can be both costly and time-consuming.

THEY MAY CONTAIN ASBESTOS

Asbestos was widely used in construction until the 1970s when it was banned due to its health risks. Popcorn ceilings, often made from materials prone to asbestos contamination during manufacturing, can pose health risks in older buildings.

THEY CAN MAKE IT HARD TO SELL YOUR HOUSE

If you’re looking to sell your home, it’s good to know that a popcorn ceiling could be considered dated and potentially turn off potential buyers. In addition, if the texture is damaged by water damage or other issues, it becomes an eyesore!

POPCORN CEILING ALTERNATIVES

With numerous options available, choosing the right ceiling texture can be overwhelming. For expert guidance and cost estimates, it’s wise to consult a seasoned drywall installer. At Home Drywall and Painting, our experienced team not only provides guidance but also addresses any questions that may arise during the process. We’ll help you select the ideal ceiling texture for your space!

KNOCKDOWN TEXTURE

Knockdown texture has slight protrusions out from the ceiling with hard edges. It’s a great drywall texture for busy homes with a lot of activity; the rigid texture can help hide minor imperfections in the drywall like nicks or scratches that may occur from accidents around the busy home. It can even be applied to walls to add depth and character to a room.

ORANGE PEEL TEXTURE

Orange peel texture, resembling knockdown texture but with smoother edges, creates a surface similar to that of an orange’s peel. Applied in a range of sizes from fine spray to larger blobs, this texture is an excellent choice for concealing minor drywall imperfections. Its unique texture distracts from flaws that might be noticeable on a smooth surface.

SMOOTH TEXTURE

Smooth drywall texture, a contemporary alternative to popcorn ceilings, boasts a modern aesthetic and easy-to-clean surface. While it can reveal flaws more readily and requires extended installation time due to meticulous finishing, its benefits include promoting healthier indoor air quality by eliminating dust-collecting protrusions.
