Your Fourth Ward Popcorn Ceiling Removal Crew
JM Painting & Remodeling handles popcorn ceiling removal throughout the Fourth Ward area of Houston. Scraped, skimmed and painted. Every Fourth Ward job runs the same way regardless of how large it is: the surface gets prepared before anything is applied, and no step gets skipped at your house because it is hidden once the work is finished.
Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal scope in Fourth Ward
- Room emptied and floors and walls fully sheeted
- Texture wet down and scraped
- Ceiling skimmed and sanded to a flat plane
- Primer, then finish coat rolled
Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Fourth Ward is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time. Ceilings in homes from before the 1980s can contain asbestos and require testing before scraping.
We do not quote popcorn ceiling removal sight unseen. Someone comes out to Fourth Ward, measures and inspects, and you get a scope that says what is included and what is not before you commit to anything.
