Popcorn Ceiling Removal Near You

Popcorn Removal USA is a free matching service for people who want their popcorn ceilings gone. You fill out one short form about the rooms and the finish you want, we pass it to a contractor who works in your area, and they contact you with pricing. We don’t do the work ourselves, and you’re never charged for using the site.

It depends on the square footage, the ceiling height, whether the texture was painted over, how much drywall repair it needs and the finish you want: smooth or a new texture. A contractor can price it once they know those details, which is what the form is for.

Some textured ceilings put up decades ago contained asbestos, so it’s worth asking before anyone scrapes. If your home is older, ask your contractor about testing the texture first. They can tell you how testing works where you live.

Scraping is wet, dusty work. Rooms are usually emptied or covered, light fixtures come down, and floors and walls are sealed in plastic before the texture is misted and scraped. Ask the contractor how they prep, contain and clean up.

A smooth ceiling takes a skim coat of joint compound, sanding, primer and paint. A light knockdown or orange-peel texture hides small flaws with less finishing. The contractor can show you both and price either one.

Usually, yes. Paint keeps water from soaking into the texture, so it takes more work to scrape. Some contractors skim over it or cover it instead. Mention it on the form so the contractor knows before they price it.

No. The quote is free and there’s no obligation. You decide if and when to go ahead, and any agreement is between you and the contractor.

Send the request anyway. Popcorn Removal USA takes requests from anywhere in the United States. Add your ZIP code so the request reaches a contractor who works there.
