Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Toronto
Older ceilings are tested for asbestos first, then scraped and prepped for a smooth, clean finish.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Popcorn ceilings date a room fast. Removing them opens up the space and lets the light in. It is a messy job, but done right it leaves a smooth ceiling you can paint flat.
This is for homeowners tired of the textured look, or getting a room ready to sell. George handles the scraping, the dust, and the cleanup, so you do not have to.

Yes. Older popcorn ceilings can contain asbestos. George has older ceilings tested before any removal, and handles it professionally.
How messy is popcorn ceiling removal?
It is a dusty job. We seal the room, cover your floors and furniture, and clean up when we are done so you are not left with the mess.
Can you paint the ceiling after it is scraped?
Yes. Once the texture is off and the ceiling is smooth, we prime and paint it flat for a clean, current look.

Either one. George can take out the popcorn in a single room or across the whole home.
