How long does popcorn ceiling removal take in a Hespeler home?

Most popcorn ceiling removal jobs in Hespeler take 1 to 3 days, depending on square footage, ceiling condition, and whether asbestos testing is needed first.

  • Testing (if required): Many Hespeler homes built before the mid-1980s had chrysotile asbestos mixed into their ceiling texture. Under Ontario Regulation 278/05, testing is required before disturbing suspect material — we coordinate this at cost ($300–$500), with results typically back within a few days. Removal itself isn't mandated by law, and the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings, but testing protects you and your family.
  • Removal + finishing: Once cleared, a typical 3-bedroom Hespeler home takes about 2 days for removal, two skim coats, primer, and two coats of paint.

Pricing is all-inclusive: $4.50/sqft for unpainted popcorn ceilings, $6.50/sqft for latex-painted, and $7.50/sqft for oil-based painted ceilings. A typical 3-bedroom Hespeler home runs $2,000–$4,500 total. We've completed 500+ homes since 2019, fully insured ($2M) and WSIB covered. Call (519) 729-7394 for a free quote and exact timeline.
