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

DIY Texture Work vs. Hiring a Licensed Contractor

When it comes to popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing in Burbank’s Verdugo foothill area, homeowners typically weigh two paths: hiring a licensed drywall specialist or attempting the work themselves (or through a handyman). Each choice has real trade-offs worth understanding before you commit.

Professional Removal & Refinish

DIY or Handyman Scrape

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspection and Planning

We inspect the ceiling to assess the texture type, check for asbestos concerns, and identify any water damage or structural issues before we begin scraping. This upfront look ensures we know exactly what the finished surface will require and prevents surprises mid-job.

Scraping and Skim Coating

We carefully scrape away the popcorn texture, containment systems in place to keep dust contained. Once the ceiling is bare, we apply skim coat to fill imperfections and create a smooth, even base ready for sanding.

Sanding, Priming, and Cleanup

We sand the skim coat to a seamless finish, prime the entire ceiling, and leave it paint-ready. Dust is vacuumed and contained throughout, and your home is left spotless so the only change you see is a modern, smooth ceiling.

Cost Drivers

The price of popcorn ceiling removal depends on the size of the area being treated, the condition of the drywall underneath, and whether texture matching or repainting is needed to finish the job.

What affects cost most:

How can we help?

We remove popcorn texture and refinish ceilings to a smooth, modern finish in homes across Burbank’s Verdugo foothill area, where slope movement and drainage-related settling can make texture removal more complex than in valley-floor properties.

What we do

What we DON'T do

How we work?

Burbank homeowners in the Verdugo Foothill area trust Precision Patch Pros because we understand the specific challenges of hillside living—settling cracks, moisture intrusion from slope drainage, and the dust control that popcorn ceiling removal demands in homes near open terrain. We make sure your finished ceiling looks untouched and stays that way for 5 years.

Foothill Expertise

Homes near the Verdugo Mountains settle differently than valley properties, and we know how to patch and texture-match ceilings that have moved with the house. We’ve handled dozens of popcorn removal jobs across Burbank’s hillside neighborhoods where slope drainage and settling create repeat damage.

Texture Matching Perfection

Removing popcorn ceiling exposes the raw drywall underneath, and the new finish must blend seamlessly with any untouched areas or adjacent ceilings. We custom-match your exact texture and paint so the repair literally cannot be seen.

Licensed, Insured, Guaranteed

Precision Patch Pros holds CSLB #830875 and is fully insured. Every popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing job is backed by our 5-year guarantee, so you have proof of accountability and protection against future issues.

One-Visit Completion

We remove the popcorn, patch any damage underneath, apply new texture, and touch up paint all in a single trip. Your ceiling is finished and your home is back to normal by day’s end with no dust left behind.

Photo-Based Quoting

Send us pictures of the ceiling and any problem areas, and we’ll return a detailed quote within 10 minutes. No guesswork, no surprise costs, and you know exactly what the final result will look like before we start.

Job Stories

We handle all types of popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing work, from single rooms to whole homes, including repairs to damage discovered underneath the texture.

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.

Does popcorn ceiling removal include patching the damage underneath?

Yes. Removing popcorn texture often exposes cracks, nail pops, or settling damage in the drywall underneath, and we repair all of that before refinishing. We patch, smooth, apply your chosen new texture, and touch up the paint so the ceiling looks completely fresh when we’re done.

What happens if the ceiling texture doesn't match the rest of the house?

We custom-match the exact texture already present in your home so the finished ceiling blends seamlessly with adjacent ceilings and any untouched areas. If it is not an exact match, we will not stop until we achieve perfection. You won’t be able to tell where the repair ends and the original surface begins.

How long does popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing take?

Most jobs are completed in a single visit. We remove the popcorn, patch any damage underneath, apply new texture, and touch up the paint all in one trip so your home is back to normal by day’s end with no dust left behind.

Can you give me a quote without scheduling an in-person visit?

Absolutely. Send us 2-3 pictures of the ceiling and any problem areas, and we’ll get back to you with a detailed quote within 10 minutes. No guesswork, no surprise costs, and you know exactly what the final result will look like before we start.

What should I do to prepare the room before you arrive?

Move small furniture and valuables out of the room if possible, but we handle the heavy lifting and floor protection. We cover all remaining furniture and fixtures before starting, and we clean up completely before leaving so your space is spotless.

How soon can the ceiling be painted after you refinish it?

We apply paint touch-ups as part of the refinishing process, so the ceiling is ready to use immediately. If you want to apply a full coat of paint yourself later, wait 24 hours for the texture and primer to cure completely.

Does removing popcorn ceiling create a lot of dust in Burbank homes near the foothills?

Yes, and we control it. Homes near the Verdugo Mountains already deal with outdoor dust and vegetation, so we seal the work area, protect floors and furniture, and vacuum continuously during removal. Your home is left spotless with no dust residue on surfaces.

Is your work guaranteed if the ceiling settles or cracks again?

All work is backed by our 5-year guarantee. If the refinished ceiling develops issues related to our workmanship, we return and fix it at no cost. We’re licensed (CSLB #830875), insured, and accountable for the long-term result.
