Is professional popcorn ceiling removal worth it?
Yes, professional popcorn ceiling removal is absolutely worth it. Popcorn ceilings are outdated, difficult to clean, and can hide asbestos—a serious health hazard in Ontario homes built before 1990. We've transformed 500+ homes since 2019, and the investment pays off immediately in aesthetics and resale value.
Our all-inclusive pricing makes it affordable:
- Unpainted popcorn: $4.50/sqft (removal + 2 skim coats + primer + 2 coats paint)
- Latex-painted: $6.50/sqft
- Oil-base painted: $7.50/sqft
- Typical 3-bedroom home: $2,000–$4,500
Before starting, we recommend asbestos testing ($300–$500 at cost, no markup)—essential for Ontario homes. Our team is fully insured ($2M), WSIB-covered, and follows all provincial regulations. The result? Smooth, modern ceilings that increase home value and improve indoor air quality. Call us at 519-729-7394 for a free quote. Resale value guide · See our Google reviews
