Adding Value to your Home: Tips and Tricks on Popcorn Ceilings

If you are looking to sell your home, and are looking for ways to add value to your home, it is most often the little things that can make a big difference. Making sure your home doesn't look dated can be important. Popcorn ceilings can date your home. They also collect dust and allergens while absorbing light instead of reflecting it. Removing a popcorn ceiling can be hard work. But it is well worth it. According to homelight.com , removing a popcorn ceiling can add about $2,500 worth of value to a 1,400 square foot house, and up to $35,000 of value to a larger estate home. *Pro tip: To cut down on dust, lightly mist the ceiling with water about 15 minutes before scraping. Long, even strokes with a putty knife should remove any texture easily. Smooth out any spots that need a touch up with a joint compound. Then sand, and paint.
