Yes — we remove stucco (popcorn) ceilings throughout Kitchener-Waterloo, and it's the service we've built our business on since 2019, with 500+ homes completed, $2M insurance, and full WSIB coverage. Unpainted popcorn ceiling removal runs $4.50/sqft all-inclusive, covering removal, two skim coats, primer, and two coats of paint. If your ceiling was previously painted, the rate is $6.50/sqft for latex paint or $7.50/sqft for oil-base paint, since painted texture takes more labour to strip.

Before any removal begins, we always recommend testing for asbestos. Chrysotile asbestos was commonly mixed into ceiling texture before the mid-1980s, so any home built or textured in that window should be tested first. We coordinate independent asbestos testing at cost, typically $300–$500, with no markup. Under Ontario Regulation 278/05, testing is required before disturbing suspect material, though removal itself isn't legally mandated and the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings.
