About Textured Ceiling Removal Services

“Popcorn” ceiling was an incredibly popular choice for home decoration for many years, offering homeowners a solution that hides imperfections without sacrificing quality acoustics. Nowadays a popcorn ceiling can make a room look dated and old-fashioned, and removing it has become a priority for many looking to update their homes. This is particularly the case for homeowners trying to sell their homes in an increasingly competitive market, as well as those who have just purchased a fixer-upper and are looking to make it their own.

In addition to the finish, popcorn ceiling can be difficult to clean and maintain. The texture easily accumulates dust and cobwebs, which is especially problematic in homes with high ceilings that are difficult to reach. This is why many homeowners opt for textured ceiling removal services in order to achieve a cleaner, more modern finish for their home ceilings. CertaPro Painters® of Twin Cities East offers this service with all of the professionalism and attention to detail our customers have come to expect.

Why Hire CertaPro Painters® To Remove My Textured Ceiling?

Textured ceiling removal is an involved and messy process, requiring special tools for scraping, sanding, and vacuuming the dust that accumulates on the ground.

It can be time-consuming, depending on the height and square footage of the ceiling, as well as on how intricate the popcorn pattern is. If popcorn ceiling removal services are required in a furnished room, all the furnishings will have to be removed or protected, making the process even more labor intensive.

The painters were courteous and did a great job. They cleaned up very well, communicated their progress and had us do a quick check of everything before they left. We would certainly use CertaPro Painters again.

Why Use A Professional Company?

This is a tricky project that can go wrong very quickly in inexperienced hands. There are various benefits to relying on popcorn ceiling removal companies instead of tackling the work yourself. The delicate nature of the project often results in novice mistakes that are difficult and costly to fix. A few common mistakes include creating small holes and marks on the ceiling or causing water damage to any electrical boxes or outlets that aren’t properly protected. It is also a particularly messy job that can be a cleanup nightmare if the room hasn’t been prepared correctly.

Furthermore, as with any ceiling work, the removal can be tedious and exhausting, especially if you have a lot of it to go through. Professional popcorn ceiling removal teams have years of experience in this process, and there is no putting a price on this level of expertise.
