Why Port Moody Homeowners Remove Popcorn Ceilings

Modern Style: Smooth ceilings open up rooms and complement Port Moody’s mix of modern condos and renovated character homes.

Health Benefits: Popcorn texture traps dust and allergens, a concern in Port Moody’s coastal climate.

Resale Value: Updated ceilings add appeal in desirable neighbourhoods like Heritage Woods and Glenayre.

Safety: Homes built before 1990 may contain asbestos. Professional testing and safe removal give you peace of mind.

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process

We want you to feel confident about what’s involved, which is why we follow a detailed, proven process:

1. Preparation & Protection

Your home is carefully prepared before work begins. We cover all floors, furniture, and walls with protective sheeting and seal off the work area to keep dust contained.

2. Safe & Controlled Removal

When the popcorn or textured ceiling has not been painted yet. Using proven methods, we often dampen and soften the popcorn texture so it can be removed with minimal or no dust. Or we will use a Hepa Drywall Vacuum Sander to remove and/or knockdown the popcorn ceiling first.

For Port Moody homes built before 1990, asbestos testing is needed. If testing reveals asbestos, you will either have to get a certified asbestos abatement company to do the removal so it is completed safely before any work can start. Otherwise we can also offer another method which involves us installing a single layer of drywall over the existing one, this is called encapsulation. Abatement is not required with this method.

3. Repairs & Skim Coating

We repair cracks, seams, and other imperfections in the drywall before applying skim coats and sanding. This step ensures your new ceiling is perfectly smooth.

4. Finishing & Painting

Once the ceiling is prepped, we can prime and paint it to match the rest of your home. Many Port Moody clients choose to have us handle both removal and painting for a complete, ready-to-enjoy finish.

5. Cleanup & Final Walkthrough

After removal, our crew vacuums, wipes down surfaces, and removes all protective coverings. We finish with a walkthrough to ensure you’re fully satisfied with your new ceilings.

"I highly recommend Gordon Drywall and Painting for any painting and drywall needs you may have. From meeting with Shawn, to setting up appointments, to the completion of the job, I was very impressed. Steve did an excellent job of repairs to the drywall, and both he and Becky did an absolutely amazing job of painting. I will certainly have Gordon Drywall and Painting back to complete the upper part of my home. They are just excellent in what they do. Thank you Shawn, Becky, and Steve for such an incredible job."

Excellent service. The job was repairing and repainting kitchen ceiling after changing the lighting. Very professional and very pleasant doing business with Shawn at Gordon Drywall, who arranged and quoted the job. Beckie did a great job on site and the ceiling looks better than new! Cleaned up when the job was done and left the place spotless. Glad I called Gordon Drywall for this job and I would recommend this business.

Excellent experience! Detailed quote, clear timelines and skilled workers/crafters who all came when scheduled and delivered on time. Went out of their way to help us re-finish a basement room that had been damaged due to upgrades in electric and plumbing. Shawn clearly cares about the work done and the health of his team. He helped us navigate asbestos testing - negative thank goodness - before proceeding. Exceeded expectations.
