We had popcorn ceilings removed and ceiling cracks repaired and then painted. The ceilings look beautiful and the major crack is gone! Wish we had done this years ago! This company is very professional and we could not be happier with the work. We will definitely call them again in the future. The communication with them was outstanding and can't say enough about the wonderful workmanship.
