Absolutely, we can often repair water-damaged popcorn ceilings, provided the underlying drywall isn't severely compromised or moldy. If it's just a surface stain or a softened patch, we can usually clean, seal, and re-texture it to match. If the damage is extensive or structural, we'll advise on the best course of action, which might involve a larger drywall repair before re-texturing. Send us photos for an assessment!
