Hear from Our Customers
You walk into your living room and actually feel proud of what you see. No more explaining away those bumpy, dated ceilings to guests or worrying about what potential buyers might think.
The difference is immediate. Light bounces off smooth surfaces instead of getting trapped in textured ridges. Your rooms feel brighter, cleaner, more spacious.
When you’re ready to sell, you won’t have to discount your asking price or watch buyers mentally calculate removal costs during showings. Your home competes with the best properties in Azle, not the ones that need work.
We’ve been transforming Tarrant County homes for over 30 years. We’ve seen every type of popcorn ceiling situation you can imagine, from simple texture removal to complex asbestos abatement.
What sets us apart is straightforward. We handle the entire process from start to finish. One point of contact, clear timelines, and fixed pricing so you know exactly what you’re paying upfront.
Our team understands Azle homes. Many were built in the 70s and 80s when popcorn ceilings were standard. We know which ones likely contain asbestos and how to test safely. We also know that Azle homeowners value quality work that lasts, which is exactly what we deliver.
First, we test for asbestos if your home was built before 1985. This isn’t optional—it’s about keeping your family safe. The test takes a few days, but it’s worth knowing what we’re dealing with.
Next comes preparation. We protect your floors with heavy-duty plastic, cover furniture, and seal off the work area. This prevents dust from spreading throughout your house.
The removal itself involves carefully dampening the ceiling texture and scraping it away. We repair any damage to the underlying drywall, sand smooth, and apply whatever finish you want. Most Azle homeowners choose either a smooth finish or light knockdown texture that matches their walls.
Finally, we paint with the color and sheen of your choice. When we’re done, you’d never know there was popcorn there in the first place.
Ready to get started?
Your popcorn ceiling removal includes everything needed to get the job done right. Asbestos testing if required, complete area protection, professional scraping and cleanup, drywall repair, surface preparation, and final painting.
We also handle the disposal of all materials according to local Tarrant County regulations. If asbestos is present, we follow strict containment and disposal protocols to keep everyone safe.
Many Azle homes have unique ceiling features—crown molding, ceiling fans, built-in lighting. We work around these carefully, protecting what stays and ensuring clean lines where the ceiling meets the wall. You get a finished result that looks like it was always meant to be smooth.
The timeline typically runs 2-4 days depending on the size of your project. We coordinate with your schedule because we know you’re still living in your home during the work.
If your home was built before 1985, there’s a good chance your popcorn ceiling contains asbestos. The only way to know for certain is professional testing.
We collect small samples from different areas of your ceiling and send them to an accredited lab. Results typically come back within 3-5 business days. Testing costs around $150-250, but it’s essential for your family’s safety and to determine the proper removal method.
Even if you’re not planning removal right now, it’s smart to test if you have popcorn ceilings from that era. You’ll have peace of mind, and if you ever decide to renovate or sell, you’ll already know what you’re dealing with.
The biggest difference is safety and results. DIY removal might seem straightforward, but there are serious risks if asbestos is present. Even non-asbestos removal creates enormous amounts of dust that’s difficult to contain without professional equipment.
Professional removal includes proper testing, containment systems, specialized tools, and safe disposal methods. We also handle the drywall repair and refinishing that’s almost always needed after scraping.
Most homeowners who try DIY removal end up calling professionals anyway when they realize the scope of prep work, cleanup, and finishing required. Starting with professionals from the beginning usually costs less than trying to fix a DIY job gone wrong.
Professional popcorn ceiling removal in Azle typically runs $2-6 per square foot, depending on several factors. A standard 12×12 room usually costs $300-800, while larger projects like whole-house removal can range from $2,000-5,000.
The main cost factors are room size, ceiling height, whether asbestos is present, and what type of finish you want afterward. Asbestos removal requires special procedures that increase costs, but it’s not optional if testing shows it’s present.
We provide fixed-price estimates upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying. No surprise charges or hidden fees. The estimate includes everything from testing through final cleanup.
Most residential projects take 2-4 days from start to finish, not including the initial asbestos testing period. Single rooms can often be completed in one day, while whole-house projects might take a week.
The timeline depends on square footage, ceiling height, and complexity of the work. Rooms with lots of fixtures, crown molding, or irregular shapes take longer. We also need drying time between steps—drywall compound, primer, and paint each need time to cure properly.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated if anything changes. We know you’re living in your home during the work, so we coordinate carefully to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
Yes, removing popcorn ceilings typically increases your home’s marketability and can boost its value. Smooth ceilings are highly desirable in today’s market, especially among younger buyers who view popcorn texture as dated.
In Azle’s competitive housing market, homes with updated features sell faster and often for higher prices. Real estate agents consistently report that popcorn ceilings are among the first things buyers notice and factor into their offers.
The exact value increase varies, but most homeowners see the investment pay off both in daily enjoyment of their space and when it’s time to sell. Even if you’re not selling soon, you’ll appreciate the cleaner, more modern look every day.
Yes, we can remove painted popcorn ceilings, though the process takes a bit longer than unpainted texture. Paint seals the texture, so we use special techniques to soften both the paint and underlying material for safe removal.
Painted popcorn removal requires more careful preparation and often involves scoring the surface before applying moisture. This prevents damage to the underlying drywall and ensures clean removal.
Many Azle homes have painted popcorn ceilings from previous renovation attempts. While it adds complexity, it doesn’t make removal impossible. We’ll assess your specific situation during the estimate and explain exactly what the process involves for your ceiling.
