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!!

Your Options

Professional Removal vs. Covering It Up

Homeowners in Bakersfield choose between completely removing popcorn texture and refinishing the ceiling properly, or covering the texture with panels or new drywall. Each approach affects your home’s final look, resale value, and how long the solution lasts.

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspection and Scope

We examine the ceiling to identify the popcorn texture type, check for any damage or soft spots, and confirm the scope before we touch anything. This takes just a few minutes and ensures we understand exactly what needs to come off.

Scraping and Surface Prep

We carefully scrape away the popcorn texture, dispose of it responsibly, and sand the exposed surface smooth or to accept new texture. The ceiling is now clean and ready for its new finish.

Finishing and Paint Ready

We apply your chosen texture (smooth, orange peel, knockdown) or leave it smooth, then prime the entire ceiling so it’s ready for paint. The result looks like the popcorn was never there, and your ceiling is protected for years to come.

Cost Drivers

The cost of popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing depends on the size of the area, how much prep or repair work the ceiling needs underneath, and the texture or finish you want applied to match your home.

What affects cost most:

How can we help?

We approach popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing in Bakersfield with the same finish-quality mindset we bring to every patch.

What we do

What we DON'T do

How we work?

Bakersfield homeowners trust Precision Patch Pros because we understand the drywall challenges specific to East Kern’s ’60s ranch homes and tract neighborhoods—from dust infiltration near Highway 99 to plaster-to-drywall conversions in older builds. We deliver invisible repairs backed by a 5-year guarantee, every single time.

Local Expertise in East Kern Homes

We know the drywall quirks of Bakersfield’s ’60s ranch stock and the plaster-to-drywall conversions common in pre-1950s builds. That means faster, more accurate texture matching and fewer surprises.

Texture Matching Perfection

If it is not an exact match, we will not stop until we achieve perfection. Your popcorn ceiling removal repair disappears completely, and we guarantee it for 5 years.

Licensed, Insured, Guaranteed

We’re licensed (CSLB #830875) and insured, with a 5-year guarantee on all work. You get accountability and proof that your repair will hold up over time.

One-Visit Completion

Most jobs are done in a single visit. We remove the popcorn texture, blend the ceiling, match the finish, and handle paint touch-ups all at once, so you’re not living with ongoing disruption.

Clean, Professional Worksite

Floors and fixtures are protected before we start. We leave your home spotless and ready, with zero dust or mess left behind.

Job Stories

We handle all kinds of popcorn ceiling removal jobs in Bakersfield homes, from single rooms to whole-house projects, and we always leave the ceiling smooth, textured, and painted to match.

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 does popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing actually include?

We scrape off the existing popcorn texture, smooth the ceiling surface, apply a new finish (usually knockdown or smooth), and handle paint touch-ups to match the surrounding area. The ceiling ends up looking like it never had popcorn in the first place, and we guarantee the result for 5 years.

Do you patch water stains or fix damage to the ceiling before removing the popcorn texture?

Yes. If your ceiling has water stains, cracks, or other damage, we repair those areas first before removing the popcorn. That way, the final finish is smooth and uniform across the entire surface.

How long does a typical popcorn ceiling removal job take in a Bakersfield home?

Most single-room jobs are completed in one visit, usually 4 to 6 hours depending on the size and condition of the ceiling. Whole-home projects can take a full day or spread across two visits if multiple rooms are involved.

Can I get a quote before scheduling, or do you need to inspect the ceiling first?

We can give you a quote in 10 minutes from photos. Send us 2 to 3 pictures of the ceiling, including any damaged areas, and we will get back to you with pricing and a timeline right away.

What affects the cost of popcorn ceiling removal, and do you charge by the room or square footage?

Pricing depends on the size of the ceiling, whether repairs are needed, and the type of finish you want afterward. We quote by the project, not by the hour, so you know the total cost upfront with no surprises.

Is there an extra charge if the popcorn texture is in bad shape or peeling?

Not typically. Peeling or damaged popcorn is common in older Bakersfield homes, especially near heat vents or after leaks, and we account for those conditions in the quote. If we discover hidden issues once we start, we will let you know before proceeding with any additional work.

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

We handle all the prep work. Floors and furniture are protected before we start scraping, and we leave your home spotless when the job is finished. You do not need to do anything except give us access to the room.

How long before I can paint the ceiling after the popcorn is removed?

If we are handling the paint touch-ups, the ceiling is ready the same day. If you are painting yourself, allow 24 hours for the new finish to cure fully before applying primer or paint.
