Do you scrape and paint, or just one?

Both, with one crew. A ceiling stripped by one trade and painted by another leaves nobody owning the surface in between — the painter finds it is not flat and the scraper says it was paint-ready. One crew means one accountability.

Does my Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove, Ekota, Greenview, Hillview home need an asbestos test before removal?

If your Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove, Ekota, Greenview, Hillview home predates 1990, we recommend a bulk-sample test before removal. We walk Bisset, Crawford Plains, Daly Grove, Ekota, Greenview, Hillview homeowners through the process and schedule around the result you want.

Can you do the Mill Woods and Meadows Edmonton removal and painting as one job?

Yes — that is exactly how we run Mill Woods and Meadows Edmonton jobs. One Mill Woods and Meadows Edmonton quote covers scraping, skim coat, priming and paint.

Should the popcorn be scraped or skimmed over?

It depends whether it releases. We test a patch: texture that softens cleanly gets scraped; texture that has been painted will not soften, and scraping tears the board face, so skimming over is better.

Does the ceiling need priming before paint?

Yes. A freshly skimmed ceiling is uniformly porous and takes finish paint unevenly without a sealer. Skipping it gives a patchy sheen under the very fixtures the ceiling is lit by.
