How long does ceiling removal take for a Parkwood Gardens home?

Most Parkwood Gardens homes take 1 to 3 days for complete popcorn ceiling removal, depending on square footage, ceiling condition, and whether asbestos testing is required first.

  • Testing (if needed): Homes built before the mid-1980s may have chrysotile asbestos mixed into the texture. Under Ontario Regulation 278/05, testing is required before disturbing suspect material. We coordinate testing at cost ($300–$500, no markup) — results take 2–5 business days before work starts.
  • Removal + finishing: Once cleared, most 3-bedroom Parkwood Gardens homes are done in 1–3 days, covering removal, 2 skim coats, primer, and 2 coats of paint.
  • Pricing: $4.50/sqft for unpainted popcorn ceilings, $6.50/sqft if latex-painted, $7.50/sqft if oil-based paint is present — all-inclusive. A typical 3-bedroom home runs $2,000–$4,500.

Removal isn't legally required — the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings — but testing is required before disturbance if asbestos is suspected. Call (519) 729-7394 for a free quote. KW Popcorn Ceiling Removal · Guelph service area · Google Reviews
