Our Step-by-Step Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process
-
Step 1 Initial Consultation & Ceiling Inspection
We start with a free onsite consultation to assess your ceiling’s condition, test for potential hazards (like asbestos), and provide a transparent quote. No pressure, just good advice.
-
Step 2 Site Preparation & Safety Setup
Furniture is covered, floors are protected, and safety barriers are set up. We take dust seriously—HEPA filters, plastic sheeting, and negative air machines keep your space clean and safe.
-
Step 3 Popcorn Texture Removal
Using specialised tools and techniques, we remove the popcorn texture gently but thoroughly. If necessary, we wet the surface to prevent dust and ensure no damage to the underlying plasterboard.
-
Step 4 Surface Smoothing & Repair
Once the popcorn is gone, we patch any imperfections, skim coat for a smooth finish, and sand to perfection. This step makes all the difference—trust us, it’s worth doing right.
-
Step 5 Priming & Repainting
We apply premium quality primer followed by your chosen paint finish—matte, satin, or even something a bit bolder. Want a colour that works with your view of Corio Bay? We’ll help pick the perfect one.
-
Step 6 Final Cleanup & Client Walkthrough
We leave no trace—except for your pristine new ceiling. After a full cleanup, we walk through the project with you, make any final touch-ups, and ensure you’re 100% happy. (Most clients smile at this part.)
