Popcorn Ceiling Removal

Service Description

Popcorn ceiling removal pricing depends on the size of the area, the condition of the ceiling, the amount of preparation required, and the type of finish you would like after removal. Because every ceiling is different, I provide customized quotes based on the actual scope of work rather than using one flat rate for every project. A standard popcorn ceiling removal project may include: • Protecting floors, walls, and furniture • Wetting and carefully removing the popcorn texture • Scraping and surface smoothing • Patching and repairing any imperfections • Sanding and preparing for a smooth finish • Optional re-texturing or smooth ceiling finish • Priming and preparing for paint Pricing can vary based on: • Size of the room or ceiling area • Ceiling height and accessibility • Condition of the existing popcorn texture • Amount of repairs needed after removal • Desired finish (smooth, light texture, etc.) • Whether painting is included • Furniture moving and room prep • Age of the home and potential testing requirements Older homes may require additional precautions or testing before removal, which can affect pricing. Ceilings that need extensive repairs, skim coating, or multiple finishing steps are typically priced higher due to the added labor and time involved. Typical popcorn ceiling removal pricing ranges: • Small rooms: around $300–$800 • Average rooms: around $800–$2,000 • Larger areas or whole-home projects: $2,000+ depending on size and finish level Popcorn ceiling removal is a labor-intensive process that requires proper preparation and attention to detail to achieve a clean, modern look. My goal is to deliver smooth, professional results that update the space and increase overall appeal. For the most accurate estimate, I’m always happy to review the space in person or through photos and provide a clear quote with no surprises.
