Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about ceiling drywall services in Madison, WI.

01
How much does popcorn ceiling removal cost?
Popcorn ceiling removal in Madison typically costs $1.50–$3.00 per square foot, depending on whether the texture contains asbestos (which requires special handling) and your desired replacement finish. A standard 12x12 room runs $200–$450 for removal and smooth refinishing.
02
Can you tell if my popcorn ceiling has asbestos?
Popcorn ceilings installed before 1980 may contain asbestos. We recommend testing before removal — we can take a sample and send it to a certified lab, or you can have it tested independently. If asbestos is present, we follow all EPA and Wisconsin DNR guidelines for safe removal.
03
Why is my ceiling cracking?
Ceiling cracks are commonly caused by normal house settling, temperature and humidity changes, improper taping during original construction, or structural movement. We assess the cause during our inspection — if it's structural, we recommend addressing that first. For cosmetic cracks, we repair and reinforce the joint to prevent recurrence.
04
Can you install a tray or coffered ceiling?
Yes. We build and finish tray ceilings, coffered ceilings, and other architectural ceiling details. These involve custom framing and precise drywall work but add significant visual interest to living rooms, dining rooms, and primary bedrooms.
