Popcorn Ceiling Removal

What we do in Englewood

Popcorn ceilings date a house faster than anything else in the room. We seal the space in plastic, wet-scrape the texture so it lifts instead of dusting, skim the ceiling smooth or re-texture to knockdown, then prime and paint — you get a flat, modern ceiling and a room that looks years newer.

What's included

Popcorn Ceiling Removal — scope of work

Everything we handle for Englewood homeowners in a single professional visit.

Full-room containment

Floors, walls, openings, and fixtures sealed in plastic before a single scraper touches the ceiling.

Wet scraping

Texture misted and lifted in sheets rather than sanded off dry, which keeps airborne dust down dramatically.

Smooth skim coating

Two to three skim passes and a careful sand for a flat ceiling that reads clean under raking light.

Knockdown re-texturing

Prefer texture to flat? We spray and knock down a consistent finish that matches the rest of the house.

Prime & ceiling paint

Stain-blocking primer plus flat ceiling paint so old water marks and scrape lines never telegraph through.

Fixture removal & reinstall

Fans, lights, and vent covers taken down and put back so there's no ring of old texture left behind.

Local tip for Englewood

Englewood Homeowner Tip

Many Englewood ranches have a mix of original plaster and later drywall patchwork from previous owners. A pre-paint inspection that maps where each surface lives — and what kind of repair each one needs — is the difference between paint that looks great in person and paint that telegraphs every patch on a sunny afternoon.

FAQ

Questions about Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Englewood

Common questions about scope, pricing, and what to expect.

We mask the floors, walls, and openings in plastic, wet the texture down so it comes off in sheets instead of dust, scrape the ceiling, then skim-coat it smooth or re-texture to knockdown. Everything gets primed paint-ready before we pull the plastic.

Popcorn texture applied before the early 1980s can contain asbestos. Testing is inexpensive and is the homeowner's responsibility — send us the result and we'll schedule the scrape. If it comes back positive, an abatement contractor has to remove it first, and we can finish and paint the ceiling afterward.

Messier than painting, cleaner than you expect. The room is sealed floor-to-ceiling in plastic and the scrapings are bagged as we go. Most households stay home and simply avoid the rooms we're working in that day.

Our rate is a flat $80 per hour with no trip fees, so the cost tracks the ceiling area, its height, and whether you want a smooth or knockdown finish. We give you a free written estimate with the expected hours before anything starts.

Yes — this is one of the most common Englewood scopes. We map which surface lives where, use lime-compatible compounds on plaster and standard mud on drywall, then blend texture and prime everything before paint so the transitions disappear under normal light.

Often yes. Mid-century Englewood kitchens often have solid wood boxes and well-built doors that look tired but are structurally excellent. Stripping, sanding, bonding primer, and a sprayed enamel topcoat brings them back to current without the cost of replacement.

Yes. We test for asbestos when warranted, scrape, skim-coat, prime, and finish to smooth or light orange-peel. Pairing it with a wall and trim repaint is the single biggest modernization you can do to a mid-century Englewood home short of remodeling.

Pop-tops add new framing on top of original older framing, and the two move differently with humidity and temperature. Standard mud re-cracks at those joints. We use flexible compounds, mesh tape, and a feathered skim coat designed for these exact transitions so the seam actually stays closed.
