Most professional popcorn ceiling removal jobs take 1 to 3 days, depending on the size of the home and whether asbestos testing is needed first. A typical 3-bedroom home usually takes our crew 2 to 3 days from removal through skim coating, priming, and final paint.

• Day 1: Scraping and removal prep
• Day 2: Two skim coats applied and sanded smooth
• Day 3: Primer plus two coats of paint

If your home was built before the mid-1980s, we recommend asbestos testing before any disturbance, since chrysotile asbestos was commonly mixed into popcorn texture through that era. Testing costs $300–$500 at cost, with no markup — we coordinate testing but do not perform licensed abatement ourselves. Under Ontario Regulation 278/05, testing is required before disturbing suspect material, though removal itself is not mandated by law and the Ontario Building Code does not regulate popcorn ceilings.

Our all-inclusive pricing ($4.50–$7.50/sqft depending on ceiling condition) covers removal, 2 skim coats, primer, and 2 coats of paint — a typical 3-bedroom home runs $2,000–$4,500. Call (519) 729-7394 for a free quote. KW Popcorn Ceiling Removal · Google Reviews
