Why Carlton homeowners choose Emplastrum for popcorn ceiling removal

We are a mudding and taping specialist and a perfectly flat, paint-ready ceiling is the standard we hold every Carlton job to. The same skill that produces a Level 4 wall finish is what gives our popcorn removal skim coats the flat, consistent finish that holds up under new lighting.

Ceiling area, height and access in Carlton homes

If your Carlton home was built before 1990, we recommend a bulk-sample asbestos test before any ceiling removal — a single sample costs under $100 and takes a few business days at a certified Edmonton lab. We advise Carlton homeowners on the approach and set the schedule around the outcome. No confirmation, no scrape — the rule for pre-1990 Carlton ceilings.
