Most Rickson Ridge homes take 2–4 days from start to finish, depending on ceiling size and condition. A typical 3-bedroom home takes about 3 days: removal and disposal (day 1), two skim coats and primer (day 2), and two coats of paint plus cleanup (day 3). Larger homes or homes with painted popcorn texture can take longer since the texture is harder to remove.

Before any work begins on a pre-1980s or pre-mid-1980s home, we recommend asbestos testing ($300–$500, at cost, no markup) since chrysotile asbestos was commonly mixed into ceiling texture through the 1970s and into the mid-1980s. Ontario Regulation 278/05 requires testing before disturbing suspect material — removal itself isn't mandated by law, and the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings. We coordinate testing with a licensed lab; we don't perform abatement ourselves.
