This one was interesting. Haven’t come across a texture like this before.
This texture was created with medium popcorn texture, mixed 50/50 with joint compound, and then swirled. Stacy was better at this than I was.
Update 8/15/25:
After the repairs were made, we spot primed the patches and then painted the main stairwell ceiling twice. Because the ceiling texture used popcorn, we had to wait about 2 hours between coats or risk damaging the existing texture.
The Carrigan Archives was created as a way to document our work outside of social media. What began as a simple portfolio has grown into the largest collection of project photos and case studies focused on interior painting, ceiling repair, and drywall and plaster repair, ever created in Western New York. The Carrigan Archives is actively maintained and reflects actual jobs, not staged examples or stock imagery.
Most projects are documented from start to finish by Dave Carrigan Jr. and his staff to give homeowners the context needed to evaluate professional workmanship before hiring a contractor. The focus is transparency: how problems are identified, how repairs are approached, and the level of care applied throughout the process.
Carrigan Painting was founded in 2010 in Amherst, NY by a third-generation plasterer and painter. Our company specializes in residential repaints and substrate repairs. The Carrigan Archives is organized by service and by town, reflecting both the range of work performed and the areas served. It currently includes over 125 case studies and more than 2,200 project photos which are located with in their respective case studies.
