Popcorn ceilings scraped flat and paint-ready in Fraser

Popcorn and stipple ceilings age an Fraser home quickly. Whether you have the heavy stipple common in older Fraser homes or a lighter texture from the 1990s, we scrape it down, skim the ceiling flat, sand smooth and leave it paint-ready. Fraser is a higher-end Northeast community where ceiling work is usually about smooth upgrades, pot light finishing and pre-sale presentation rather than original stipple removal. On Fraser jobs the dust stays contained, floors stay covered, and the room is cleaned before we go. We cover Fraser, Balwin, Bannerman, Belmont and the surrounding area, 7 days a week.

Our popcorn ceiling removal process in Fraser, step by step

Full dust containment before we scrape a single line in Fraser

Scraping popcorn is dusty work. Before we touch the ceiling in any Fraser home, we mask doorways with poly sheeting, cover the floor with drop sheets and protect all light fixtures. Most Fraser 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 Fraser ceilings

Once the ceiling is scraped clean, we repair any cracks or seams that have opened up. Next comes the skim coat — a thin layer of compound across the whole Fraser ceiling to fill the roughness the scrape leaves behind. It needs to dry completely before sanding. Rushed drying time is the top reason Fraser skim coats crack or telegraph texture through paint. We do not rush it. The final sanding pass is done with a pole sander and leaves the Fraser ceiling dead flat and ready for primer.
