Popcorn Ceiling Repair?

It is not uncommon to find popcorn ceilings in newly designed and in manufactured homes. Popcorn ceilings are a specific type of textured ceiling that offers both ceiling beauty and contrast to interior home designs. Roof leaks or accidents can generate the need for homeowners to repair popcorn ceilings. There are several considerations to keep in mind when making this type of home repair.Assess the Amount of Ceiling DamageThe first step to popcorn ceiling repair is to assess the amount of damage done. For small sections, it is possible for home owners to make the repairs themselves without hiring an outside contractor. Large sections of damage or extensive damage may require using a contractor to make the repairs.Spraying the Ceiling AreaStaining is often a problem with popcorn ceilings. Household dust may collect in the texture. Sweeping the ceiling to rid it of dust can cause the ceiling to stain. Actual pieces of the texture may brush off of the ceiling to leave unsightly sections. Spraying the sections with additional popcorn ceiling compounds will often correct the damage and alleviate the problem. Most large hardware stores and paint stores stock the popcorn ceiling compound in spray cans.Cutting and Replacing the Ceiling AreaIt might be necessary to cut out sections of the popcorn ceiling that have extensive damage. This type of ceiling repair is usually done best by an outside contractor. Home owner's insurance may cover part or all of the cost of the repair, depending on the cause of the damage. Make certain to ask the contractor if the work is guaranteed. Get the project cost estimate and guarantee in writing before the repair project begins.Underlying Cause of DamageDetermine the underlying cause of damage to the ceiling. It is important for the home owner to address and fix whatever caused the initial damage. Repeated or continued damage can occur if the initial cause of damage is not ascertained and corrected. Home owners will find themselves with continued or repeated damage and repair bills. For example, if the roof leaks and causes ceiling damage the leak needs to be repaired. Otherwise, the next rainfall will create new damage to the repaired ceiling.
