Homes in Fifth Street share conditions with the surrounding Fort Bend County communities, Stafford (2.1 mi), Missouri City (2.6 mi), Meadows Place (4.2 mi) among them: the same soils, the same weather load, the same building eras. Dust containment is the whole job on an occupied house.
Fifth Street is an unincorporated community in Fort Bend County covering about 0.7 square miles, home to 2,284 residents (2020 Census), with Stafford 2.1 miles out, Missouri City 2.6 miles out, Meadows Place 4.2 miles out. We treat it as one stop on a route, not a special trip.
Four stages, every time: a free on-site look at your Fifth Street home, a written quote you can hold us to, the work itself done in sequence, and a final walkthrough where you sign off before we do.

What popcorn ceiling removal costs in Fifth Street
Beware of any contractor who prices popcorn ceiling removal sight unseen. These are the variables that decide the real number at your Fifth Street home, and why we look before we quote.
- Asbestos testing for older homes before any scraping starts
- Whether the ceiling is painted: painted texture is slower to remove
- Furniture handling and full-room containment on occupied homes
- Square footage of ceiling and how many rooms are in scope
Why Fifth Street homeowners call JM Painting
Homeowners in Fifth Street mostly hire us twice: once to see if we are who we say we are, and again for everything after. 20+ years in, that is still the model — earn the small job, keep the standards identical on the big one.
Fifth Street runs about 3,155 residents per square mile, so we plan access and staging before the first trailer arrives: driveways stay usable, materials stay on your property, and neighbors are not living with our equipment.
