With over 25 years of experience, here to help you with all your drywall needs. Drywall installation/Tape/Texture/Metal stud framing/Acoustic removals/Water damage restoration/painting Patch work
"Caliber Drywall was hired to repair my drywall for some water damage. They did a wonderful job on the drywall. However, I also had them come back and paint the drywall with paint that was provided to them. The painters did a terrible job painting and did not cover up the white drywall completely in some areas. I called to complain to Ken, whom offer to fix the issue if I provide him with the paint. I purchased the paint and asked if he was available to come back to paint it. He told me that he was out of town and would be available at a later time. This was not acceptable to me as I needed the repairs done quickly for personal reasons. I asked for a parital refund since I did the painting myself. He refused to offer a partial refund for the mediocre paint job that his company provided to me. I would like a full or partial refund for the terrible painting work."

"Stuff happens, and this business knows how to handle it! We had a stain on the ceiling. Ofri from BTB came over and turned on the water from the upstairs bathtub and then the shower stall. The ceiling became moist after the shower was turned on. Ofri then came back with a plumber. He turned on the upstairs bathtub. After they left, water dripped from the ceiling. Ofri had the plumber immediately send over a team for a service call. They broke open a hole in the ceiling and found that a pipe leading to the bathtub was so rusty it had holes. They took videos showing other pipes leading to the bathtub were also very rusty. While the team was still there, Ofri gave us prices, sent over the paperwork and the pipes were replaced within a of couple hours. Fabulous! Ofri had thought it would take a lot longer to complete the plumbing work. Therefore, her pricing did not align with the actual work performed. She brought in Alon, who substantially reduced the price to our satisfaction. Their responsiveness and reasonableness earned them my highest rating. Thank you Ofri, Alon and the BTB team!"

Popcorn ceiling removal can become expensive once asbestos testing or abatement is involved, so weigh both the short- and long-term benefits before you proceed. In the short term, you’ll enjoy a brighter, cleaner ceiling. In the long term, buyers and real estate agents view a smooth ceiling as one less update to tackle. The time, energy, and cost you invest now can pay off at closing.
Aesthetic concerns drive most popcorn ceiling projects, but timing also plays a crucial role. If the texture is cracking, stained, or likely to contain asbestos, schedule removal sooner rather than later. Tackling the job before you move in—or before major furniture arrives—saves hours of prep and cleanup. If asbestos is present, hire certified abatement professionals first; disturbing the material without proper containment increases both risk and cost.
Once the texture is scraped off, imperfections become obvious—think nail pops, seams, and old stains. Plan on patching, sanding, priming, and either painting or applying a new texture to get a polished finish. A smooth coat of drywall compound followed by paint delivers the clean, modern look most homeowners want, but knockdown or orange-peel textures can hide minor flaws if you prefer a little forgiveness.
If testing confirms asbestos, bring in a licensed abatement contractor right away. These specialists follow EPA guidelines for sealing off the space, removing the material, and disposing of it at an approved facility. Don’t scrape, sand, or even drill a hole—the fibers released can cause serious health problems. A certified crew protects your family, ensures the project is conducted legally, and leaves you with a clean canvas for refinishing once clearance tests confirm the area is safe.
Covering a popcorn ceiling is a cost-effective alternative when compared to complete removal. This method leverages the lower installation cost of drywall—$1.50 to $3 per square foot—versus the $7 per square foot required for popcorn ceiling removal. By choosing to cover the ceiling, you preserve its structure while updating its appearance. Adding beadboard panels further modernizes the look without incurring the higher expenses associated with full removal. This option not only saves on labor and materials but also minimizes disruption in your home.
