FAQ
We remove popcorn and similar textures from most residential spaces, including bedrooms, living rooms, hallways, kitchens, and other common areas.
Texture removal does create dust, but we protect floors and furniture, mask walls and openings, and clean up after scraping and sanding so the space is ready for primer and paint.
We address damaged spots, skim‑coat as needed, and sand the ceiling to a smooth, consistent surface before priming and painting.
We recommend completing the process — scraping, repair, priming, and painting — as one project. Bare or unprimed ceilings are more likely to show imperfections and don’t hold up as well.
Most rooms can be scraped and repaired in a day or two, with additional time for drying, sanding, and painting. During the estimate, we’ll outline the schedule for your specific rooms.
In older homes, testing may be recommended before disturbing certain ceiling materials. If we see anything that raises concern, we’ll point it out and discuss next steps before work begins.
We’ll ask you to remove smaller items and anything fragile. Larger furniture can often be moved and covered on site; we’ll review the plan during the estimate.
Removing heavy texture usually makes ceilings feel higher and the room more updated, especially once the new paint is on.
When removal, repair, and painting are completed as one project, eligible work is covered under our workmanship warranty. We’ll explain the specific coverage for your project before we start.
