Our Bisset, Crawford Plains, Ekota popcorn removal process, step by step

Mask, protect and scrape

Popcorn removal in Bisset, Crawford Plains, Ekota is messy if done wrong, so we mask walls, protect floors and furniture first, then scrape the texture cleanly back to the board.

Our popcorn ceiling removal process in Daly Grove, step by step

Full dust containment before we scrape a single line in Daly Grove

Scraping popcorn is dusty work. Before we touch the ceiling in any Daly Grove home, we mask doorways with poly sheeting, cover the floor with drop sheets and protect all light fixtures. Most Daly Grove homeowners do not fully appreciate how much fine dust a scrape job generates until they have been through one done without proper containment. We contain it from the start and clean up before we leave.

Skim coat, drying time and the sanding pass on Daly Grove ceilings

Once the ceiling is scraped clean, we repair any cracks or seams that have opened up. The skim coat follows — compound floated thin over the full Daly Grove ceiling to bury the scrape marks. It needs to dry completely before sanding. Skip the drying window and an Daly Grove skim coat will crack or show through the paint. We do not rush it. The final sanding pass is done with a pole sander and leaves the Daly Grove ceiling dead flat and ready for primer.
