Why Choose Us for Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Corio?

  1. 1

    Local Experience You Can Trust

    With over 26 years of hands-on painting and surface treatment experience in Geelong and Corio, we understand the quirks of older homes in the area. Whether it’s a 1950s brick veneer near Corio Village or a newer townhouse closer to Shell Parade, we tailor our approach to suit the materials, age, and condition of your ceilings.

  2. 2

    Safe, Dust-Free Removal Process

    Popcorn ceilings can be messy—no doubt. But our team uses specialised tools, dust control systems, and protective coverings to ensure your home stays clean during and after the removal. We also check for any hazards like lead or asbestos and will recommend proper procedures if needed (because safety always comes first).

  3. 3

    Flawless Finishes & Optional Repaints

    We don’t just scrape and go. After popcorn removal, we re-skim, sand, and prime the ceiling to make it smooth and ready for your choice of paint. Want a fresh coat of white or a bold accent ceiling? We’ve got you covered—literally.

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process

  • Step 1 Initial Consultation & Inspection

    We begin with a free, no-obligation visit to your Corio property. Our experts assess the ceiling, discuss your goals, and identify any potential risks such as asbestos. You’ll also receive a detailed quote—no hidden surprises.

  • Step 2 Surface Preparation & Protection

    We cover floors, walls, furniture, and fixtures to protect them from dust and debris. Ventilation is set up to ensure clean airflow, and all electrical fittings are safely masked or removed if needed.

  • Step 3 Popcorn Texture Removal

    Using specialist scraping tools and moisture application, we gently remove the textured coating. Depending on the surface and age, this step can be fast—or painstaking. (Trust me, I’ve been there.) Either way, we take our time to do it right.

  • Step 4 Ceiling Repair & Skimming

    Once the popcorn is gone, we patch any imperfections, apply a skim coat, then sand it down to a buttery smooth finish. Perfect for painting or leaving plain—your choice.

  • Step 5 Painting & Finishing Touches

    Want a clean, fresh ceiling? We’ll prime and paint it with high-quality, low-VOC paints. Prefer to do it yourself later? No worries—we leave the surface ready to go. We also clean up thoroughly—no specks left behind.

  • Step 6 Final Walkthrough & Satisfaction Check

    We walk you through the finished result, fix anything that needs touching up (if anything), and ensure you're happy before we pack up. Your satisfaction isn’t a line—it’s our bottom line.
