Why Remove Popcorn Ceilings?

Popcorn ceilings (also called stipple or textured ceilings) were common in older homes but are now seen as dated and impractical. Here’s why many Calgary homeowners choose to remove them:

  • Modernize the look of your home instantly

  • Improve lighting and room brightness (textured ceilings trap shadows)

  • Easier to clean and repaint

  • Boost resale value with updated finishes

  • Reduce allergens trapped in rough textures

  • Check for possible asbestos in homes built before the mid-1980s

Whether you're updating one room or your entire home, removing popcorn ceilings creates a more spacious, clean-lined aesthetic.

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process

Step 1: Assessment & Prep

We begin by inspecting your ceiling for any water damage or prior repairs. If the ceiling is pre-1985, we’ll guide you on getting an asbestos test before removal.

  • Full room prep with plastic sheeting and drop cloths

  • Furniture protection and dust control measures

Step 2: Safe Removal

We gently moisten the surface and scrape away the textured layer, avoiding damage to the drywall underneath. If the ceiling was painted, we may recommend skim coating for best results.

Step 3: Smooth Refinishing

Once the texture is removed, we patch, sand, and skim coat the ceiling to a smooth, paint-ready finish. The final result is flat, modern, and completely transformed.

  • Optional ceiling repainting

  • Light reinstallation if fixtures were removed
