Have you or anyone you know ever wondered why someone would create that cottage cheese looking finish that we call "popcorn ceilings"? Invented in the 1950s as an easy to spray on acoustical foam, it was prized for its ease-of-use and ability to quickly cover holes, uneveness and other flaws in ceilings.
Our team is trained in the newest techniques in popcorn ceiling removal to ensure the safety and protection of your home and the ceilings we're treating. It is surprising, but harsh chemicals are no longer needed. Typically, a silk-like washing spray is all that is needed to loosen the material and then strong backbone work applied to remove the material. It does become a bit messy so we take every precaution to protect your home by placing cover cloths and plastic throughout the entire work area. Vents and electrical plates will also be covered to ensure no residue gets inside. We've seen homeowners try to remove the popcorn ceiling material on their own only to end up calling us after a few days. We've often come in mid-project and can pick-up where someone left off. |
Other techniques from the mid-century period include molded the drywall called Stipple or Knockdown. These plastering techniques from the 50s often require professional assistance for removal as the drywall has hardened to structural surfaces. As you try to remove it, you may start damaging the interior structure of the wall.
We may find that it is more cost-effective to replace the drywall rather than using resources to remove the product. Sometimes, drywall can be replaced in a matter of hours whereas drywall or plaster removal may take days. When we come to your home to provide a Paint Consultation, we can review the area and provide the cost-effective recommendation to repair the ceiling or wall area to the look you desire. |
