Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Wall Prep
Mustafa and crew did a great job on my popcorn ceilings on the main floor (approx. 500sf). The work was done on time as originally estimated. He is one of the friendliest guys you'll meet. He is an honest man and told me to get my potlights done before bringing him in to fix up the ceilings so that they come out perfect even though it would be a little more difficult for him.
He was reasonably prompt in returning phone calls and giving status updates. During the initial walkthrough, he noticed the walls and the baseboards were in bad shape and offered to patch them up at an extra cost. In the end, the baseboards came out pretty nice and the walls were patched up to my satisfaction. He even helped to patch a large water damaged spot near my shower that I told him that he didn't need to do. I can tell he's a meticulous person because of the quality of the work.
However, I am deducting a star for 2 reasons: 1) He left my house key with his partner and I was unable to get it back for 3 days after the job was complete; 2) Before I signed him on to do the job, he stated he was going to use Benjamin Moore ceiling paint. Afterwards, I asked him what paint he used because I needed to fix up my painting miscues, he said he used Para instead because he was price matching another contractor for me. I would've preferred that he told me up front but at least he told me when I asked.
All in all, despite the lost star, I would still highly recommend Mustafa and his team to anyone looking to remove popcorn ceilings.

I am very sorry for he inconvenience of not getting your key back on time, and for the the miscommunication of the paint to be used. Please be assured that Para ceiling paint is a quality product, they just don't have a big name like Benjamin Moore. Your ceilings are still guaranteed for 5 years and we thank you for your review !
