What Is Popcorn Ceiling Removal?

Popcorn ceiling removal takes off the sprayed on textured coating found in most homes built before the mid 90s. The texture is scraped away, the ceiling is skim coated and sanded smooth, then primed and painted. Freddy's House Painting removes popcorn ceilings throughout Apopka and Central Florida, where the vast majority of older homes still have them.

When Is Popcorn Ceiling Removal Necessary?

Most homeowners remove popcorn ceilings because they date a house instantly and make rooms feel lower and darker. It also becomes necessary when the texture is stained from a roof or plumbing leak, flaking loose, or cracking. Buyers notice popcorn ceilings, so removal is a common step before listing a home. If you are already repainting the interior, doing the ceilings at the same time saves money.

What Is Required For Popcorn Ceiling Removal?

Containment comes first. Furniture is removed or sealed and floors and walls get covered wall to wall. The texture is scraped down wet to keep dust under control, then the ceiling is skim coated, sanded smooth, primed, and painted. Homes built before 1980 should have the texture tested for asbestos before any scraping starts. We will tell you that up front, not after the work begins.
