  3. 3

    Seamless Finishes, Every Time

    We don’t just remove the popcorn—our job isn’t finished until your ceiling is smooth, primed, and perfectly painted. Whether you want a matte white finish or something a bit more bold, we’ll help you choose the right look to match your décor and lighting.

Our 5-Step Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process

  • Step 1 Initial Consultation & Assessment

    We begin with a free onsite inspection of your Lara property. We’ll assess your ceiling’s condition, identify any risks (like asbestos), and provide a transparent quote. No pressure, no surprises—just straightforward advice.

  • Step 2 Site Preparation & Protection

    We carefully cover floors, furniture, and walls using plastic sheeting and drop cloths. Vents are sealed and dust barriers are set up to ensure the rest of your home stays spotless throughout the job.

  • Step 3 Safe Popcorn Texture Removal

    Using professional-grade tools and techniques, we gently remove the popcorn texture. If your ceiling contains asbestos, we’ll refer you to a licensed removalist before proceeding with painting work.

  • Step 4 Surface Smoothing & Repairs

    This is where the magic happens. We patch holes, sand the surface to a smooth finish, and apply primer to ensure the paint adheres properly—no lumps, no patches, just flawless results.

  • Step 5 Painting & Clean-up

    Once the surface is ready, we apply your chosen ceiling paint with care. After drying, we clean up thoroughly—leaving no dust, no debris, just a brand-new ceiling you’ll love to look at.
