I could blend that ceiling... it's very easy to do. I can't even tell where I do it sometimes. I wouldn't worry about the blending. You will never see it if they are good..

Yeah. It all depends on the type of existing texture. Some are easy to match and others are near impossible but can be done right by a real good finisher either way.

Ok,
Some questions.  Got everything cleaned up now and the Adjuster approved the repair work. However, he keeps nagging me to close the claim.  I keep telling him that it seems like we should keep it open until the work is done (or at least all the demolition).  He keeps whining about how it needs to be closed.  I'm even working with their recommended restoration company. 

Do I need to close the claim like he says?
I'm guessing he gets evaluated on how fast he can open/close claims and claims closed/mo?

Seems like it should stay open until the contractor gets his final billing.  He keeps assuring me that if they run into additional problems that I can go back to my insurance company and they will add to the claim.

I personally would not close it, but I know little about the inner workings of insurance companies.

it should actually get closed when the work is finished, and everybody is happy and paid. unless they gave you your money already to get repairs done... then it's closed
