Popcorn Ceiling Removal Near Ames, TX

Most popcorn ceiling removal problems we get called out to in Ames trace back to preparation rather than product. Ceilings in homes from before the 1980s can contain asbestos and require testing before scraping. That is where our time goes on a Liberty County job, and it is why the finish is still holding up years later.

What the work involves

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal scope in Ames

Texture wet down and scraped
Ceiling skimmed and sanded to a flat plane
Primer, then finish coat rolled
Room emptied and floors and walls fully sheeted

Ask for references and we will point to work near Ames, not across the metro: Liberty is 3.1 miles from here and on the same crew route, which is also why our scheduling estimates for Liberty County tend to hold.

The numbers on Ames: 1,137 residents (2023 est.) across roughly 3.3 square miles of Liberty County, about 344 people per square mile. Closest communities we also serve: Liberty 3.1 miles out, Hardin 7.2 miles out, Kenefick 7.4 miles out.

The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the popcorn ceiling removal itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your Ames home before the job is called done.

Why Ames homeowners call JM Painting

JM Painting & Remodeling has been doing this work for 20+ years, and the way we run a Ames job reflects it: the scope goes in writing before we start, the preparation is priced as part of the work instead of skipped to win the bid, and nothing gets added without your approval.
