Why Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Richmond Takes More Than a Scraper
Popcorn ceilings look dated and collect dust, but removing them the wrong way creates a mess and can leave patchy drywall. See our full popcorn ceiling removal services across Illinois for the complete picture.
Asbestos Testing Is Critical
Homes built before 1980 can have asbestos in popcorn texture. We test before we touch anything so you don't breathe in dangerous dust.
Scraping Dry Damages Drywall
Scrape popcorn without wetting it first and you gouge the drywall. We wet the surface properly so the texture releases cleanly.
Drywall Surface Must Be Perfect
After scraping, the drywall underneath has rough spots and tape lines. We sand everything flat so your ceiling looks smooth and even.
Primer Is Not Optional
Scraped drywall soaks up paint like a sponge. We prime every ceiling before painting so the final coat doesn't look blotchy.
