Popcorn Ceiling Removal

Textured ceilings scraped, smoothed, repaired and painted

Free EstimateClarksville · Middle TN · Western KY

A popcorn ceiling dates a house the moment you walk in, collects dust and cobwebs, and is almost impossible to patch or paint well. We take it off. The room is sealed and everything in it is covered, the texture is wetted down and scraped to the drywall, the ceiling is skim-coated and sanded smooth, any cracks, nail pops or old water damage are repaired along the way, and the ceiling is primed and painted a clean flat white — or whatever colour you choose. Clarksville homes built before the mid-1980s can have asbestos in the texture; we'll help you get it tested before anything is scraped.

Our Process

Estimate & Test

We measure the ceilings, check for old paint over the texture (which changes the method) and, on pre-1985 homes, advise an asbestos test before work starts.

Seal the Room

Floors, walls, fixtures and furniture are wrapped in plastic and the room is closed off — scraping is messy, and none of it leaves the sheeting.

Scrape & Skim

The texture is soaked and scraped to bare drywall, then the whole ceiling is skim-coated, repaired and sanded to a smooth, even surface.

Prime & Paint

A stain-blocking primer, then two coats of ceiling paint. Plastic comes down, fixtures go back up, and the room is vacuumed clean.
