Popcorn removal is a one day process up to 3,000 sf. This service is offered in both residential or commercial properties that may be occupied with furniture or vacant of all items. There are preparations on the part of the customer for this type of project. If the project is occupied with furniture “All of the decorative items in the areas will need to be removed for the work to”. The process begins with the floors being covered with a 3ml vapor resistant plastic and walls being covered with  painters plastic. The wall plastic is taped down to the floor plastic creating a bubble in the area with only the ceiling being exposed. Any and all fixtures in the ceiling are also covered: fans, speakers, lights, are also covered. We remove or cover the A.C. vents in the ceiling as well. Once all of the required areas are covered and protected the ceilings are lightly misted with water to soften the popcorn. The ceilings are scrapped by hand with a 6″ or 10″ scrappers attached to polls. Because the ceilings have been moistened there is little to no dust as the popcorn falls like wet oatmeal. If there are any joints/seams that need new tape, we tape and restore the seams and corners where needed. If there are any loose drywall boards we screw them back up tighten to the trusses. The ceiling is now ready to have the texture material applied. Turn your popcorn ceilings into knockdown or orange peel texturing. Today's modern textures.
