Do it right the first time, professional, clean and efficient.Highly recommended!

 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 Removal Options

Professional Removal vs. Covering It Up

Homeowners in Mojave typically choose between hiring a specialist to remove and refinish the ceiling properly or attempting a quick fix like painting over the texture or covering it with panels. Each approach has real consequences for how the ceiling looks and performs in the High Desert climate.

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspect and Plan

We examine your ceiling to confirm the extent of popcorn texture, check for any water damage or stains, and outline exactly what needs to be scraped and refinished before we start. This inspection ensures we understand the full scope and can protect your home properly.

Scrape and Prepare

We contain dust with drop cloths and plastic sheeting, then carefully scrape away the popcorn texture using controlled technique. Once removed, we skim coat the ceiling surface to smooth out imperfections and create a uniform base ready for finishing.

Sand, Prime, and Finish

We sand the skim coat smooth, prime the entire ceiling, and leave it paint-ready so you can choose your final color. Your home is cleaned thoroughly and the ceiling looks like a fresh, modern finish 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 ceiling underneath, and how much prep work is needed before finishing.

What affects cost most:

How can we help?

Precision Patch Pros removes outdated popcorn texture from ceilings and refinishes them for a clean, modern look across Mojave and the Highway 58 corridor, treating every ceiling like a finish job with dust-controlled scraping, skim coating, and seamless prep for paint.

What we do

What we DON'T do

How we work?

Mojave homeowners trust Precision Patch Pros because we understand High Desert drywall challenges—extreme temperature swings at 2,762 feet elevation cause joint compound to cure inconsistently and tape to telegraph, and we know how to finish repairs that hold up in desert conditions. We’ve served East Kern and the surrounding aerospace corridor long enough to match every texture in the area and guarantee your walls look untouched for 5 years.

Desert-Climate Expertise

Mojave’s elevation and extreme daily temperature swings stress drywall finishing in ways valley contractors often miss. We understand how heat and cold affect compound curing and paint adhesion, so your repair stays invisible year-round, not just the day we finish it.

Texture Match Precision

We’ve repaired drywall across East Kern long enough to match every popcorn, orange peel, and smooth finish in Mojave. If it is not an exact match, we will not stop until we achieve perfection.

Licensed, Insured, Guaranteed

Precision Patch Pros holds CSLB #830875 and stands behind every repair with a 5-year guarantee. You get accountability, not guesswork, backed by proof.

One-Visit Completion

We patch, texture-match, and touch up paint in a single trip, so your walls are finished and ready before you finish your day. Most Mojave jobs are done in one visit with zero disruption.

Clean, Protected Worksite

Floors, furniture, and fixtures are protected before we start. We leave your home spotless and the repair invisible, so the only thing you notice is that the damage is gone.

Job Stories

We regularly handle popcorn ceiling removal across Mojave homes, from single-room work to whole-house projects, always leaving ceilings smooth, primed, and ready for paint.

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 is included in popcorn ceiling removal service?

We scrape the popcorn texture, skim-coat the ceiling smooth, prime the surface, and apply a modern finish texture if requested. Paint is separate unless you arrange it upfront, but we leave the ceiling ready for your painter or ours to finish. We protect floors and furniture before starting and clean up all debris when done.

Do you handle asbestos testing or removal if the ceiling is older?

We do not perform asbestos testing or abatement. If your Mojave home was built before 1980, you should have the ceiling tested by a certified lab before removal begins. Once you confirm the ceiling is safe or hire an abatement contractor to clear it, we complete the scraping and refinishing.

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

Most single-room removals take 4 to 6 hours, including setup, scraping, skim-coating, and cleanup. Whole-home projects depend on square footage and whether you want texture reapplied or left smooth. We schedule the work to finish in one or two visits, depending on ceiling size and drying time between coats.

Can you start the job the same week I request a quote?

Send us 2 to 3 pictures and we will get back to you within 10 minutes with a quote. If your ceiling does not require asbestos testing or you already have clearance, we can usually schedule within a few days. Whole-home removals may take a bit longer to coordinate, but we move quickly once the calendar opens.

What affects the cost of popcorn ceiling removal?

Square footage drives the baseline price. Height and access difficulty add labor time. If you want a new texture applied after removal, that increases material and finishing work. Asbestos testing and abatement are separate costs if your ceiling predates 1980. We give you a complete quote upfront so you know what to expect.

Do you charge extra for high or vaulted ceilings in Mojave homes?

Yes, ceilings above 10 feet require scaffolding or extended ladders, which adds setup time and labor cost. We assess height from the photos you send and include any surcharge in the quote. You will see the full price before we start, with no surprise fees.

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

Remove or cover small valuables and fragile items. We protect floors and larger furniture with drop cloths and plastic sheeting before scraping begins. If ceiling fans or light fixtures are in the way, either remove them yourself or let us know so we can coordinate around them.

How long before I can paint the ceiling after you finish skim-coating?

Joint compound needs at least 24 hours to cure fully in Mojave’s dry desert climate before priming and painting. We leave the ceiling smooth and paint-ready. If you arrange paint with us, we handle the timing. If you hire your own painter, tell them the surface is fresh skim-coat and needs primer first.
