Found Precision Patch Pro’s website and gave them a call. They were able to make appointment for following day, the technician did a great job on repairs of crack and the difficult art of matching wall textures. Do it right the first time, professional, clean and efficient.Highly recommended!

Sherman and his crew came out, protected everything with plastic and repaired the ceiling. They did an excellent job in a timely fashion. They take pride in their work and attention to detail!.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sherman was very professional and polite when he and his coworker came to the door, the work they did was outstanding, I had two seam cracks in my kitchen ceiling where the drywall tape separated, each one about 10 - 12 feet long, after painting you can’t even tell we ever had a problem!  Thank you Sherman!!

Popcorn Ceiling Removal: Professional Removal vs. Covering Over It

When you have a popcorn ceiling in Lindsay, you have two realistic choices. You can have it professionally scraped, patched, and refinished, or you can install drywall or paneling over the top to avoid removal. Each approach has different outcomes for appearance, time, and the condition of your ceiling underneath.

Professional Removal

Covering Over It

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspect and Plan

We examine the ceiling, confirm the texture type, check for any asbestos concerns, and outline exactly what needs to come off and what prep work comes first. This upfront conversation keeps surprises out of the job.

Scrape and Patch

We scrape away the popcorn texture completely, patch any damage or gaps left behind with joint compound, sand everything smooth, and feather the edges so the ceiling is uniform. Dust control and floor protection are standard throughout.

Sand and Ready for Paint

We sand the entire ceiling to a smooth, paint-ready finish, vacuum up all dust, and leave the surface clean and primed for your chosen paint color. The ceiling looks fresh and untouched, backed by our 5-year guarantee.

Cost Drivers

The cost of popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing depends on the size of the area, the condition of the underlying drywall, and the texture or finish you want applied afterward.

What affects cost most:

How can we help?

Job Stories

We handle popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing for Lindsay homeowners and rental properties, from single-room jobs to whole-home projects.

Full living room and hallway removal

Homeowner wanted a consistent smooth ceiling throughout the main living area. Popcorn was original to the house from the 1990s, no asbestos concern. Two-day job: day one for removal and repairs, day two for skim coat and texture. Finished with paint prep and a coat of ceiling white.

One room with a different ceiling than the rest

Homeowner had already removed popcorn in most of the house but the master bedroom still had the original texture. We matched the smooth finish from the rest of the house so the ceiling looked consistent room to room.

Popcorn ceiling with a water stain underneath

Homeowner wanted the popcorn removed before listing the house. When we scraped it back, there was an old water stain and soft area from a roof leak that had been patched years before. We removed the compromised drywall, replaced that section, skimmed the ceiling flat, and applied a light knockdown to match the rest of the home. The ceiling looked clean, and the home sold.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers below to help you get your home back to a smooth, seamless finish.

What's included in popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing?

We scrape off the existing popcorn texture, smooth the ceiling surface, apply a new finish that matches your walls (or a texture you choose), and touch up the paint if needed. We protect your floors and furniture before we start, control the dust throughout the job, and clean up completely before we leave. Most jobs are finished in a single day so your home is ready to use right away.

Does popcorn removal cover asbestos testing or abatement?

No. If your home was built before 1980, you’ll need to arrange asbestos testing before we start. If the test comes back positive, you’ll need a certified abatement contractor to remove the material safely. Once the abatement is complete, we’ll handle the ceiling refinishing. We’re licensed (CSLB #830875) to finish the surface, not to remove hazardous materials.

How long does popcorn ceiling removal take in Lindsay?

Most residential popcorn ceiling jobs are completed in one day. We scrape the texture, smooth the surface, apply the new finish, and clean up in a single visit. Larger homes or rooms with extensive surface prep may take two days. You’ll know the exact timeline when we send your quote.

Can I schedule the work around my availability?

Yes. Send us 2-3 pictures and we’ll get back to you with a quote in 10 minutes. Once you approve, we’ll schedule the job around your calendar. We work efficiently and leave your home ready to use the same day, so you won’t need to plan around a long disruption.

What affects the cost of popcorn ceiling removal?

The main variables are ceiling square footage, the condition of the surface underneath (whether it needs extensive patching or just smoothing), and the type of finish you want applied after removal. Send us photos of the room and we’ll give you an honest quote with no surprise costs. We’ll also tell you if any prep work is needed before we start.

How do you handle pricing for older Central Valley homes?

We price based on the actual work required, not guesses. Older homes in Lindsay sometimes have settling cracks or uneven surfaces underneath the popcorn texture. We’ll inspect the ceiling, explain what needs to be done, and give you a clear quote upfront. If we find something unexpected during the job, we’ll discuss it with you before moving forward.

Do I need to move furniture or cover anything before you arrive?

No. We protect your floors and furniture before we start scraping. We control the dust throughout the job and clean up completely when we’re done. You can leave the room as is. If you want to move smaller items out of the way for your own peace of mind, that’s fine, but it’s not required.

How long before I can paint the ceiling after removal?

If you choose a painted finish, we’ll apply primer and touch-up paint as part of the job so the ceiling is ready immediately. If you’re planning to repaint the entire room yourself, wait 24 hours for the new finish to cure fully. We’ll tell you exactly when the surface is paint-ready based on the finish type we apply.
