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!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent Service at a great price! We had a water pipe leak that collapsed a large portion of the kitchen ceiling. 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!!

Professional Removal or DIY Attempt?

What We Do

What Popcorn Ceiling Removal and Refinishing Includes

Inspect and Plan the Work

We examine the ceiling, identify how the popcorn texture was applied, and confirm whether it can be safely removed or if the surface underneath needs reinforcement. This inspection tells us exactly what we’re working with before we make the first cut.

Scrape, Sand, and Skim-Coat

We carefully scrape away the popcorn texture, sand the surface smooth, and apply skim-coat to fill voids and create an even base. The goal is a flat, clean surface ready for the next finish.

Texture Match and Prime

We apply texture to match the rest of your room or leave the ceiling smooth, then prime the surface so it’s ready for paint or stays as-is. When we’re done, the ceiling looks like one continuous plane with no trace of the old popcorn.

Cost Drivers

The cost of popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing depends on the size of the area, the condition of the drywall underneath, the texture type you want applied, and whether paint matching is needed to blend the new finish with existing walls or ceilings.

What affects cost most:

How can we help?

We approach popcorn ceiling removal in Pacoima the same way we handle every finish job: scrape it clean, refinish the surface flat, and texture-match the rest of the room so the ceiling looks like one continuous plane.

What we do

What we DON'T do

How we work?

Pacoima homeowners trust Precision Patch Pros because we understand the neighborhood’s older housing stock and the repair challenges that come with it. From water-stained ceilings to settlement cracks in mid-century walls, we’ve perfected the craft of making damage disappear in homes across the northern Valley.

Mid-Century Expertise

Pacoima’s housing stock is mostly postwar, which means original plaster, layered repairs, and textured finishes that need exact matching. We know how to patch and blend seamlessly into these homes without standing out.

Invisible Results Guaranteed

We treat every popcorn removal and ceiling refinish like a finish job, not a quick patch. If the texture or paint doesn’t match perfectly, we won’t stop until it does. Five-year guarantee backs that promise.

Licensed, Insured, Accountable

We’re licensed (CSLB #830875) and insured. You get a contractor who stands behind the work and provides transparent pricing with no surprise costs.

One-Visit Completion

Popcorn removal, new texture application, and paint touch-ups all happen in a single visit. Your home is protected, the job is clean, and you’re done.

Fast, Honest Quotes

Send us 2-3 photos of the ceiling and we’ll get back to you within 10 minutes with a clear quote. No pressure, no hidden fees, just straightforward pricing and professional advice.

Job Stories

Pacoima homes often have older ceilings and walls that need refreshing or repair. Here are the kinds of jobs we handle regularly in the neighborhood.

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 painting, or is that extra?

We handle the entire process in one visit: scraping off the popcorn, applying new texture if you want it, and painting the ceiling to match your walls. Everything’s included in the quoted price. No separate paint contractor needed.

What if there's asbestos in my Pacoima ceiling?

Many mid-century Valley homes have asbestos in original popcorn texture. We’ll test a small sample before starting any work. If asbestos is present, we’ll refer you to a certified abatement contractor and come back after clearance to refinish the ceiling properly.

How long does a typical popcorn removal job take?

Most single-room jobs finish in half a day. Whole-house removals take one to two days depending on square footage and ceiling condition. We protect floors and furniture before we start, and the space is ready to use once the final coat dries.

Can I get same-day service, or do I need to wait weeks?

We schedule most jobs within a few days of your quote approval. Send us photos, and we’ll give you a clear timeline along with the price. Rush jobs are sometimes available depending on crew availability.

What makes one ceiling cost more than another?

Height, square footage, and ceiling condition all affect the price. A standard 8-foot bedroom ceiling costs less than a vaulted living room or a water-damaged surface that needs drywall repair before refinishing. Send us 2-3 photos and we’ll quote exactly what your ceiling needs.

Do you charge extra if the ceiling has water stains or damage?

If the drywall underneath is compromised, we’ll patch and prep it before applying new texture. That repair work is quoted upfront based on the photos you send. No surprise charges once we arrive.

Do I need to move furniture out of the room before you start?

We’ll move small furniture to the center and cover everything with protective sheeting. You don’t need to clear the room completely. If you have large or fragile items you’d rather relocate yourself, that’s fine, but it’s not required.

How long before I can paint the walls after the ceiling is done?

The ceiling texture and paint need 24 hours to fully cure. After that, you’re free to paint walls, hang pictures, or resume normal use. We clean up dust and debris before we leave so the room’s ready once it dries.
