What to do instead of a popcorn ceiling?
The best alternative to a popcorn ceiling is a smooth, painted drywall finish—it's modern, easier to clean, and adds value to your home. In Ontario, we remove the popcorn texture and apply two skim coats for a flawless base, then prime and paint with two quality coats. This creates a professional, maintenance-free ceiling that lasts.
Our all-inclusive pricing:
- Unpainted popcorn: $4.50/sqft
- Latex-painted: $6.50/sqft
- Oil-base painted: $7.50/sqft
- Typical 3-bedroom home: $2,000–$4,500
We also offer asbestos testing ($300–$500 at cost) since many older Ontario homes contain asbestos in popcorn texture. Our team has completed 500+ homes since 2019, fully insured ($2M coverage) and WSIB registered. Call us at 519-729-7394 for a free quote—smooth ceilings transform your entire space.
