Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Professional removal of textured popcorn ceilings in Baltimore homes, leaving a surface ready for smooth finishing or painting.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Popcorn ceiling texture was widely used in mid-century Baltimore homes for its ability to hide imperfections and reduce sound. Decades later, that heavy, stippled look can make a room feel dated and dim. Removing the texture opens the ceiling up to a cleaner profile and a brighter, more modern interior.

- Older popcorn ceilings installed before the 1980s may contain asbestos and should be assessed before any disturbance.
- Texture often traps dust and cobwebs, making ceilings harder to keep clean.
- Removal creates fine dust, so the room and its contents need to be properly protected.
How This Service Is Performed
- 01
Assess the ceiling
We look at the ceiling's age, condition, and whether testing for suspect materials is appropriate before any work begins.
- 02
Protect the space
Floors, walls, and furnishings are covered and sealed so dust stays contained to the work area.
- 03
Soften and scrape
The texture is dampened and gently scraped away without gouging the drywall underneath.
- 04
Clean and prep
The surface is swept, patched where needed, and left ready for skim coating or painting.
