Advantages of covering popcorn ceilings

Less mess
Putting a surface mount ceiling over top of popcorn does not create a messy workspace. The only clean up needed is for your tools and left over material.

Save more
Covering a popcorn ceiling is more economical and can usually be completed in a day, saving you time and money.

Easy installation
With basic tools and the EASY UP Installation System, just choose your favorite WOODHAVEN plank and you could finish your project in as little as weekend.

Disadvantages of removing popcorn ceilings

Hazards
Things like asbestos can get jarred loose and settle into your lungs. Before you even START the project, you’ll need to scrape off a small portion and send it to your local EPA approved testing office.

Special tools
Removing requires a garden sprayer, a wide putty knife or drywall taping knife, drop cloths or plastic sheeting, painter's tape, ladder, safety goggles, and a dust mask.

Roadblocks
If your popcorn ceiling has been painted in the past, removal gets harder and more time consuming.

Time
First you need to prep the room by covering everything, including outlets, the floor, and yourself. Next, you need to do the removal itself. Finally, the clean up and disposal of the old ceiling needs done.

Benefits of a drop ceiling

Improve acoustics
Our ceiling tiles can dampen sound in a room and block it from traveling to others, helping create a space everyone will enjoy gathering in.

Access above
Easily pop out a few panels out to get to wires, duct work, or plumbing, without damaging or repairing your ceiling.

Economical
You won't break the bank with your purchase, whether its replacing a few tiles or re-doing a whole ceiling.
