The Different Types of Ceiling Textures

A cheaper way for builders to create a finish on the ceiling is by installing a drywall ceiling. When the drywall is fitted, it costs more to have an expert drywaller come in and perform all the necessary work to create that perfectly smooth surface.

 

Instead of struggling to create the ultimate flat surface on your ceiling, builders often have a company spray paint the texture onto the ceiling to create a textured looked called stucco, popcorn, or stipple ceiling. 

 

It is something that most homeowners are looking to get rid of and is sometimes also referred to as a cottage cheese-like texture. Any way you call it and see it, whether it's stucco, cottage cheese, stipple, or popcorn, this bumpy looking roof dates back to the '70s.


 

Stipple Ceiling

 

The stipple ceiling was insanely popular in residential properties built between the 1930s and the 1990s in Canada; it helped hide imperfections and add a bit of ceiling depth. 

 

Drywall compound mixed with water is what makes up the stipple. It can be applied with a paint roller or spray paint gun, and a sponge can be used to create a swirl effect. 

 

These ceiling types were still commonly used in bedrooms, basements, and entrance hallways. In less expensive houses, this roofing style was used in every room of the home because it was an affordable option for builders.

 


Popcorn Ceiling

 

This is another word for the texture sprayed or painted onto the ceiling like the stipple. Providing an excellent acoustic barrier is one of the advantages to consider if you want to fit a textured ceiling. Unlike a regular flat roof, sounds seem to be more contained in a room with a popcorn ceiling. 

 


Cottage Cheese Ceiling

 

This is another descriptive name, just like the popcorn and stipple ceiling counterparts. If you want to eliminate the echo in a room, the best thing is to apply any texture to the ceiling. 

 

There is a lot of echoing if you are having a conversation; take the acoustics of an empty room as an example. Once you begin to add things like furniture or a carpet, there is a significant difference where most echo is eliminated. 

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How Much Does It Cost to Fix Popcorn Ceiling?

    Drywall ceiling repair costs can vary greatly depending on the extent of the damage. If you need to know the ceiling replacement cost of a specific area, you may need to call a professional to evaluate the site. 


    An expert from our team can assess and quote you accordingly for your ceiling repair water damage cost. Below is listed some of the additional aspects that affect the popcorn ceiling repair cost:


    • Do you need popcorn ceiling crack repair?

    • Is this a wet ceiling repair job?

    • What is the size of the area in square footage?

    • Is there extra paint required?


    The factors mentioned above are only some of the things that could affect the pricing of a ceiling repair job. It is recommended that you let a professional come in and assess the situation before deciding if patching ceiling drywall or a textured ceiling repair is required. 

  • What Thickness Drywall is Used for Ceilings?

    ½ inch panels are more susceptible to sagging, so builders prefer to install 5/8 thick panels for more stability. Adding heavy items or popcorn texture to the board can create a weight problem, which is why 5/8-inch drywall is a better selection, especially for ceilings.
