FAQs - Popcorn Ceiling Removal Services
Popcorn ceilings installed before 1978 may contain asbestos. Before removal, homes built prior to 1978 should be tested by a certified inspector. If asbestos is present, abatement must be completed before our crew can proceed with removal. We can advise on this process during your estimate.
A single room (150-200 sq ft ceiling) typically takes 2-4 hours including removal, patching, and surface preparation. A full home can often be completed in one day with a full crew.
Yes, for most homeowners. Smooth ceilings increase perceived home value, improve light reflection, and eliminate a dated aesthetic. Real estate agents commonly recommend removal before listing.
While our specialized crews and fast-set materials allow us to finish most ceilings in a single day, we prioritize quality above all else. If your ceiling requires extra care, like repairing hidden drywall damage or stripping multiple layers of paint, we’ll take the extra time needed to make it perfect.
Although it’s possible to complete in one day, often prep is the first day and painting can be the second day, depending on the substrate underneath the popcorn ceiling.
Our crew covers floors and furniture with protective drop cloths before work begins. The wet-scrape method we use minimises airborne dust. After removal we vacuum and clean the workspace before leaving. Many of our locations also use a Festool, a high tech machine which removes the popcorn with no dust.
