For 1000 sq ft of unpainted popcorn ceiling, you're looking at $4,500—that's our all-inclusive rate of $4.50/sq ft, which covers removal, 2 skim coats, primer, and 2 coats of quality paint.

If your ceiling is already painted (latex or oil-base), costs increase to $6.50/sq ft or $7.50/sq ft respectively, since we need extra prep work to handle the paint underneath.

Before we start, Ontario regulations require asbestos testing on popcorn installed before 1990. Testing runs $300–$500 at cost—no markup—and typically takes 5–7 business days for results. If asbestos is present, we follow all provincial safety protocols and adjust our approach accordingly.

A typical 3-bedroom Kitchener-Waterloo home runs $2,000–$4,500 total, depending on condition and paint type.

Our guarantee: 500+ homes completed since 2019, fully insured ($2M coverage), and WSIB compliant.
