Good fit if:

You removed the popcorn ceiling in one room but need the rest of the house matched to keep a consistent look.
Water from a roof leak damaged the ceiling texture and left stains that show through the old finish.
You want to modernize the home by removing the dated popcorn texture and finishing with a smooth or knockdown ceiling.

Not a fit if:

The ceiling has active water leaks that have not been repaired, and the source of the moisture is still present.
You need structural ceiling repairs where the drywall or framing itself has failed, not just the surface texture.
You are looking for asbestos testing or abatement services rather than texture removal and refinishing.

Your Choices

Professional Removal vs. Quick Cover-Up

When you notice popcorn texture on your Encino ceiling, you have two realistic paths: remove it completely and refinish the surface, or cover it with paint and live with the texture. Here is what each choice actually involves.

Professional Removal

Popcorn scraped off and ceiling resurfaced smooth or retextured to match adjoining rooms
Water stains and drywall damage addressed before refinishing
Paint color matched and blended so the ceiling looks intentional, not patched
Work backed by a 5-year guarantee on finish quality and texture match

Paint Over It

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspect and Plan

We assess the ceiling condition, identify the texture type, check for any water damage or asbestos concerns, and confirm the scope of removal and refinishing work before we make the first cut.

Remove and Refinish

We carefully remove the popcorn texture using wet spray and hand scraping, then apply a fresh skim coat to create a smooth, even surface. If you prefer knockdown or another texture, we apply that instead to match your style.

Sand, Prime, and Finish

We sand the ceiling smooth, prime the surface, and leave it paint-ready so the final coat goes on perfectly. Your ceiling looks refreshed and clean, and we leave your home spotless.

Cost Drivers

The cost of popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing depends on the total square footage of the ceiling, the condition of the surface beneath the popcorn, and the texture type you want to match or apply.

What affects cost most:

Square footage of ceiling area being treated
Condition of drywall under the popcorn (water damage or stains)
Texture type to be matched or applied
Whether paint color matching and blending is included
Access difficulty (vaulted ceilings, height, or obstacles)
Prep work needed after popcorn removal

Job Stories

We handle popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing for Encino homes, from small bedroom repairs to full-room rescapes with matching texture and 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.

Does popcorn ceiling removal include the texture matching and painting, or is that extra?

We remove the popcorn, prep and smooth the surface, apply a new texture that matches your existing ceiling perfectly, and paint the repaired area all in one visit. Everything is included in the quote. You get a finished, blended ceiling, not just a scrape-and-leave.

How long does the visit take to remove the popcorn and finish the ceiling?

Most Encino jobs take one full day from start to finish. We protect your floors and furniture first, remove the popcorn, prep the surface, apply the matching texture, and touch up the paint before we leave. You can use the room the same day.

What affects the cost of popcorn ceiling removal in the Valley?

The main variables are the size of the area and the condition of the ceiling underneath the popcorn. If the base is damaged or has old water stains, we quote the patch and prep work separately. We’ll walk through it clearly when we give you the estimate.

Can you match the texture on the rest of my ceiling after the popcorn comes off?

Yes. We’ve worked on dozens of mid-century and remodeled Encino homes and know how to match knockdown, orange peel, and smooth finishes perfectly. We feather the new texture into the existing surface so the repair disappears completely.

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

We handle all the protection. We cover your floors, furniture, and fixtures with drop cloths and plastic sheeting before we start. You don’t need to move anything unless you want to. We clean everything up before we leave.

How do I get a quote for popcorn removal on Ventura Boulevard or near the 405?

Text us 2 or 3 photos of the ceiling and we’ll get back to you with a quote in 10 minutes. If you prefer, you can submit photos through the form on our website. Either way, you get a clear, upfront price before we schedule.

How long does the new texture need to dry before I can paint the rest of the room?

The texture and paint touch-ups we apply are dry and ready the same day. If you’re planning to repaint the whole room yourself, wait 24 hours for the patch to fully cure. We’ll tell you exactly when it’s safe to start.

What if the ceiling looks different after the popcorn is removed?

We guarantee the texture match and finish for 5 years. If the repair doesn’t blend perfectly or the texture doesn’t match the rest of the ceiling, we come back and fix it at no charge. Your ceiling will look like nothing ever happened.
