Remove Outdated Popcorn Ceilings & Walls

Popcorn Removal Steps
Removing popcorn texture from ceilings or walls can be a messy and time-consuming process, depending on how large your home is. We typically break the process down into five basic steps:
- Prepare the Room – To prepare the work space, we’ll remove any light switches, fixtures, and furniture from the room to make sure they don’t get dirty or ruined. We’ll also cover the floor.
- Soak Popcorn Texture – Using a powerful water gun, we’ll thoroughly soak the popcorn texture to soften it and make it easier to remove.
- Remove Texture from Walls or Ceiling – We’ll use a special scraping tool to remove the popcorn texture in large chunks.
- Give the Surface a Smooth Finish – As soon as we reach the underlying layer of the wall or ceiling (called the substrate), we’ll smooth it out by filling the area. If necessary, we may also prime or sand the surface.
- Cleanup & Final Inspection – After the project is complete, we’ll vacuum and clean up the room. We’ll then ask you to do a final inspection to make sure that everything meets your standards.
