How soon can you start in Second Ward?

Call (281) 935-7012 and we will get a walkthrough on the calendar, typically inside the week. Start dates depend on the current schedule and, for exterior work, the weather, and we tell you both straight.

What does popcorn ceiling removal actually include?

Your written scope lists it line by line. As a baseline: Room emptied and floors and walls fully sheeted, and texture wet down and scraped.

Can you handle other work while you are here?

That is common. Being on site in Second Ward already makes adjacent work cheaper than bringing a crew back out later.

How much does popcorn ceiling removal cost in Second Ward?

Two Second Ward homes can need very different amounts of work behind the same-looking job, so the honest answer comes after a free walkthrough: a written number with its assumptions listed.

Are you licensed and insured?

Licensed & Insured. We are happy to provide current documentation before any work begins at your Second Ward home.

Do I need a permit for popcorn ceiling removal in Second Ward?

Popcorn Ceiling Removal: Second Ward, Harris County

JM Painting & Remodeling handles popcorn ceiling removal throughout the Second Ward area of Houston. Scraped, skimmed and painted.

What the work involves

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 Second 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We do not quote popcorn ceiling removal sight unseen.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 Second Ward, measures and inspects, and you get a scope that says what is included and what is not before you commit to anything.
