Serving Middleton and nearby communities.

A lot of homes in Middleton built before the recent subdivision boom still carry original popcorn ceilings. This service scrapes that texture off and applies a new finish, smooth, knockdown, or orange peel, whichever fits the room.

It's a full ceiling job, not a spot patch. Expect room protection, scraping, skim coating, and a new texture pass before priming.

FAQs

Popcorn Ceiling Removal And Re-Texture FAQs

Can someone match my popcorn ceiling texture or will it look patched?

If you're keeping popcorn texture rather than replacing it, yes, a trained eye can match the spray density so a patched section blends in rather than standing out.

How much does popcorn ceiling removal cost?

Cost depends on ceiling square footage, what condition the surface is in underneath, and which replacement texture you choose.

How long does popcorn ceiling removal take?

Plan for a multi-day project. Scraping and prep happen first, then skim coat drying, then the new texture, then prime and paint.

Is DIY popcorn ceiling removal a good idea?

Scraping a small room yourself is doable. Skim coating evenly across a full ceiling and matching a new texture is where most DIY attempts fall short.
