    Remove a Popcorn Ceiling \u2013 Pricing and Removal Cost Checklist<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Get at least 3-5 estimates before hiring a Remodeling, or General Contractor \u2014 estimates are typically free, unless it\u2019s a small job.<\/li>\n
    • Expect Ceiling Removal prices to fluctuate between various Remodeling, or General Contractors \u2013 each and every company have different operation expenses and over-head.<\/li>\n
    • Try to get prices in late Fall, early winter \u2013 you should expect aggressive pricing discounts by waiting for a contractor\u2019s down season.<\/li>\n
    • Try to budget and additional 7-15% more on top of what our calculator gives out \u2013 I.e; difficult configurations, Mechanical area space, the additional complexity of your home will add to the Popcorn Ceiling removal costs.<\/li>\n
    • Remember, there are multiple styled homes in the U.S \u2013 from: Contemporary, colonial, cape-cod style, ranch, bungalow, Victorian, etc. So keep that in mind and try to budget a little more, before starting your Popcorn Ceiling removal project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      How Much Does it Cost To Remove Popcorn Ceiling Texture?<\/h2>\n

      A popcorn ceiling is a cottage cheese-like texture that was popular in many homes from the 1950s through the 1980s. This textured ceiling was applied using a spray-on technique using fibers in a coating mix that helped reduce imperfections in ceiling.<\/p>\n

      However,\u00a0 many popcorn ceilings have been linked to containing Asbestos. In 1978 the \u201cclean air act\u201d banned the use of Asbestos in building products. Although the use of producing Asbestos products was banned in 1978, many manufacturers were allowed to sell off the remaining inventory that went into the early 80s so it\u2019s in your best interest to have your ceiling tested.<\/p>\n

      Professional Popcorn ceiling removal costs:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      The cost to hiring a professional to do this job would range between 300 \u2013 800.00 per room <\/strong>for a 10\u2032 x 10\u2032 area (100 sq ft). Why the huge price variation?<\/p>\n

      No licensed & Insured contractor is going to come to your home for less than a days rate. Other factors include sanding, patching, and smoothing out the ceiling for any imperfections with trash haul-away.<\/p>\n

      Can popcorn ceiling removal be a DIY project? It sure can, however, before doing such project, you should have your ceiling tested for Asbestos. The cost to test for Asbestos should range in the 50-150.00 range<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

      Patching or repairing popcorn ceiling isn\u2019t really that difficult and many home centers such as: Home depot, Lowes, and Menards, will carry this type of patch kit that contain the textured mix with Styrofoam to closely match the existing texture.<\/p>\n

      How To Remove a Popcorn Ceiling?<\/h3>\n
      \n

      The removal of this dated ceiling can be done easily by following these simple steps:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Safety first \u2013 test a small area of your popcorn ceiling for Asbestos.<\/li>\n
      2. Completely remove all furniture, wall fixtures, and cover the floors with plastic sheets. Wrap plastic around ceiling fans, ceiling lights, and cover electric outlets.<\/li>\n
      3. Spray small areas with water and let the water absorb in.<\/li>\n
      4. Duct-tape a spatula to the opposite end of a broom-handle.<\/li>\n
      5. Begin scrapping the ceiling by applying moderate pressure \u2014 Don\u2019t dig into the ceiling, gently scrape until you get a feeling for it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

        *Pro Tip <\/strong><\/p>\n

        The removal of popcorn ceiling systems can be extremely messy if you\u2019ve never done this before. If you have a shop-vac kicking around, duct-tape a spatula to the end of your shop-vac hose to help suck up all loose materials as you scrape.<\/p>\n
