cottage cheese Ceiling Texture Removal

We remove cottage cheese ceiling texture in Western Massachusetts. Towns like Northampton, South Hadley, and Belchertown. If the home was built after 1980 our first choice is to scrape it off after wetting it. If we cant scrape then we can skim coat it smooth, drywall over the ceiling, paint the cottage cheese texture bright white, or convert it to a modern knockdown texture. Our main goal is to work and maintain a safe environment in your home. We never scrape cottage cheese ceilings from before 1980 because they may contain asbestos.

Water Damaged cottage cheese ceiling Insurance Claims

If you choose to put a claim with homeowners insurance, we can work with them to get your home back to pre loss condition. We price insurance work using the same rates as the adjuster and can often work with the total repair cost that they come up with. Sometimes the adjuster doesn't account for hidden damage that we find once opening up the walls and ceilings. If that is the case we can submit a supplement claim requesting additional reimbursement along with a detailed breakdown of the additional repairs needed. The initial adjuster cost breakdown and check you receive isn't intended to be the final amount. Insurance companies will always reimburse you for the actual out of pocket cost to repair the damage. If you choose to upgrade to a higher tier of material you would just have to pay the difference. For example you have laminate counters damaged but want to replace them with granite. In that case they will pay the amount it would cost to replace the counter with a similar laminate counter, and you would cover the difference.
