popcorn ceiling removal specialist ontario
Yes, KW Popcorn Ceiling Removal & Painting is a dedicated specialist serving Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, and the surrounding Ontario region, with 500+ homes completed since 2019. I'm Eddie, the owner; we're $2M insured and WSIB covered.
We use dustless, HEPA-filtered removal to contain mess and protect floors and furniture, finishing with two skim coats to a smooth Level 5 ceiling, bonding primer, and two coats of ceiling paint. Pricing is all-inclusive of removal and finishing:
- Unpainted texture: $4.50/sqft
- Latex-painted texture: $6.50/sqft
- Oil-base painted texture: $7.50/sqft
- Skim coat only, no removal needed: $2.50/sqft (full service $3.50/sqft)
- Skim coat over existing texture, no removal: $8.50/sqft, which costs more than removal, never a cheaper shortcut
A condo or a few rooms (400-600 sqft) typically runs $2,000-$4,500. A full 3-bedroom home, 900-1,500 square feet of ceiling, typically runs $4,050-$11,250.
Homes built before the mid-1980s may contain chrysotile asbestos, once mixed into ceiling texture. Ontario Regulation 278/05 requires testing before disturbing suspect material. Removal itself isn't legally mandated, and the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings. We coordinate certified lab testing at cost, $300-$500, no markup, and don't perform abatement ourselves.
