    In my bathroom I have a spot where the texture from the ceiling has come down. This is right in the area of the shower and is due to the moisture from taking showers. The patch that is missing the texture is about 1' by 1'. Can I re-texture this myself. Since it is just a small spot I would hate to have to hire a company to do the job. If it is possible how do I do this my self?

    it shouldnt be any problem to do yourself, I work at a Home Depot and I know stores like us carry ceiling paint and texturizers :) If your town has an HD or Lowes or something, just stop by there and talk to anyone in the paint department :)

    You can do this yourself, but it takes a little finesse. I'd recommend going to a free seminar on textured painting and then practicing on a board first.
