Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process
We know homeowners want to understand exactly what’s involved, so we follow a clear, step-by-step process to ensure smooth results every time:
1. Preparation and Protection
Before we begin, we carefully prepare your North Vancouver home. Floors, furniture, and walls are covered with protective sheeting, and we isolate the work zone to minimize dust and disruption.
2. Safe and Controlled Removal
If the ceiling texture hasn’t been painted, we often dampen the popcorn material to soften it for removal, reducing airborne dust. In cases where that’s not possible, we use professional HEPA drywall sanding equipment to safely remove or knock down the texture.
Because many North Vancouver homes were built before 1990, asbestos testing is an important step before beginning any removal. If asbestos is detected, removal must be handled by a licensed abatement company to ensure safety. As an alternative, we also offer encapsulation, where a new layer of drywall is installed directly over the existing ceiling—sealing in the old material and providing a perfectly smooth, modern surface without abatement.
3. Repairs and Skim Coating
Once the texture is gone, we address any cracks, seams, or imperfections in the drywall. A skim coat is applied and sanded to leave your ceiling perfectly smooth and ready for finishing.
4. Finishing and Painting
With the ceiling prepared, we can apply primer and paint to match the rest of your home. Many North Vancouver clients choose to have us handle both steps so the ceiling is fully transformed and move-in ready.
5. Cleanup and Final Walkthrough
When the work is complete, we take care of cleanup—vacuuming, wiping down, and removing all coverings. We finish with a walkthrough so you can review the results and ensure your ceilings meet your expectations.
