Removing a textured ceiling in Kitchener-Waterloo costs $4.50 to $7.50 per square foot, all-inclusive, depending on whether the ceiling is painted. Each price covers removal, two skim coats, primer and two coats of paint.

• Unpainted popcorn ceiling: $4.50/sqft
• Latex-painted: $6.50/sqft
• Oil-base painted: $7.50/sqft

A main floor, a few rooms or a condo (400 to 600 sqft) typically runs $2,000 to $4,500. A full 3-bedroom home has 900 to 1,500 sqft of ceiling, so expect $4,050 to $11,250.

Asbestos testing: Chrysotile asbestos was mixed into ceiling texture through the 1970s and into the mid-1980s, so homes built before the mid-1980s should be tested first. Under Ontario Regulation 278/05, testing is required before disturbing suspect material. Removal itself is not required by law, and the Ontario Building Code does not regulate popcorn ceilings. We coordinate testing at cost, $300 to $500, with no markup.
