Popcorn ceilings
Had a job to repair a popcorn ceiling, as a full 4x8 sheet had fallen. Ended up saying only way was to replace it all. Sheets were originally put up with maybe twelve 1 1/4" sheetrock screws... Surprised it lasted so long. It was a pre 1978 room, so have to assume it was asbestos, as that was what they used back then. Sheets were installed wrong way to the strapping. Strapping was awful. Had to remove, fir, and re strap. Up with new rock, tape mud and prime. Perfect.... They just had me put on a popcorn finish again.... It was like rolling wet concrete uphill. Sucked.
