What the work includes.
- Review the ceiling condition and practical method
- Protect the room for the agreed work
- Remove, coat, cover or replace as written in the estimate
- Repair and finish the ceiling to the agreed point before painting
Confirm the right way to smooth your ceiling.
Texture removal
Where the coating and surface are suitable, remove the texture and repair the ceiling underneath.
Skim coating
Where appropriate, build a smooth surface over the existing ceiling. Assessment confirms preparation and suitability.
Overboarding
New board may be considered where removal or coating is unsuitable. Attachment, clearances and assembly requirements must be reviewed.
Older materials may require testing before disturbance. The method and scope are confirmed for your ceiling.
Before ceiling work starts
Tell us the room and ceiling condition, whether the texture has been painted, and whether you want a whole ceiling smoothed or a localized repair. We confirm the suitable method after assessment.

Questions about popcorn ceiling removal.
Are popcorn, stucco and stipple ceiling removal the same service?
Those names are commonly used for textured ceilings, but the coating, relief, substrate and paint history can change the responsible method. A description can organize the first review. Words and appearance do not identify the material or settle testing requirements.
Is removal always better than skim coating or overboarding?
No. Coating condition, adhesion, board condition, height, occupancy and the desired finish may favour removal, skim coating, overboarding or replacement. The estimate should name the selected method and its limits.
Does a popcorn ceiling need asbestos testing before work?
No coating is diagnosed by age, appearance or a photo. When testing is required, an appropriately qualified provider must test it, and any required asbestos abatement must be completed separately before our ceiling work proceeds.
