Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Littleton, CO
Outdated popcorn ceilings make Littleton homes look older and trap dust. We remove them cleanly, retexture, and leave paint-ready ceilings — or finish with paint so you don’t need a second contractor.
Locally owned · Insured · Serving Littleton & Denver South Metro
Why remove popcorn
Popcorn (acoustic) ceilings date a home, soak up light, and collect dust and allergens. Removing them brightens rooms, modernizes the look buyers expect, and makes cleaning easier. For Littleton homeowners planning to sell or refresh, this is one of the highest-impact updates per dollar.
Our 5-step process
- Free estimate — photos or on-site walkthrough
- Asbestos check — homes built before ~1990 may need testing before scraping (we guide you; we don’t fake the test)
- Containment — floors, vents, and furniture protected to control dust
- Removal + prep — scrape or overlay as appropriate; tape, mud, and smooth
- New finish — smooth, knockdown, or orange peel; paint-ready or full paint package

FAQ
Q: Do you test for asbestos?
A: We’re not a testing lab. If your home is pre-1990, we recommend a kit or licensed test before scraping. Encapsulation/overlay can be an option when testing isn’t complete.
Q: How messy is it?
A: It can be dusty — we use plastic containment, cover floors/HVAC, and clean up thoroughly.
Q: How long does it take?
A: Many rooms take about 2+ days depending on finish and drying time.
Q: Can you paint after?
A: Yes. Ask for the remove + texture + paint package so it’s done in one visit cycle.
