My recommendation is to hire GTA Renovators. They are extremely friendly, professional, also offer fair pricing, and made the entire process smooth just like my new ceiling. Jas did an amazing job removing the popcorn... The whole space feels bigger, brighter and cleaner. His team is very thorough and detailed, I appreciate the attention to detail and care for my home. I look forward to using GTA Renovators for future projects.

He stayed committed to ensuring we were 100% happy with the final result and kept the process clean and organized. His pricing is fair for the quality of workmanship, and he was honest and transparent throughout the project. Anyone looking to remove popcorn ceilings in their home should definitely reach out to Jas at GTA renovators—he’s a true professional!

We hired Gta renovators to get the popcorn ceiling removed and the walls painted throughout the house in Toronto. It was a big job with a tight timeline because we had other contractors to coordinate before move-in, and these guys handled it really well. The work looks excellent and everything was done safely and cleanly. Super happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the great work!

I hired GTA Renovators for popcorn ceiling removal as part of my renovations before moving into my condo in Toronto and I’m really happy with the results. Jas and his team came in on time, finished on a tight schedule, and did a really professional job. They repaired all the minor water damage in the ceiling blocking all the water stains. The ceiling looks smooth and modern. I even got their help with some drywall damage on my walls. If you need popcorn ceiling removal in Toronto, I definitely recommend them!

Jas is very professional and hardworking, very passionate about his work. The best thing is he cleans after his work and examines his work after finishing it. I recommend him for his professional attitude and humbleness.

We hired Jas for popcorn ceiling removal and water damage repairs after a leak in our ceiling. He was professional, reliable, and great to work with from start to finish. He explained the whole process, his pricing was fair, and the job was completed on schedule. One thing we were especially happy with was the dust control. He used a vacuum for all the sanding, so there was almost no dust. We ended up having him take care of all the drywall repairs and popcorn ceiling removal throughout the house, along with fixing some older patchwork that had not been done properly. He repaired our walls and ceilings, blocked the water stains, and primed/painted everything and it looks flawless. We would definitely recommend Jas to anyone looking for water damage and drywall repairs, painting, or popcorn removal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most popcorn ceiling removal projects include site preparation, texture removal or refinishing, skim coating as needed, sanding, priming, painting, and cleanup. The exact scope depends on whether the ceiling is painted, damaged, previously patched, or in need of extra repair work before a smooth finish can be achieved.

Popcorn ceiling removal cost depends on ceiling size, whether the texture is painted, how much skim coating is required, and whether priming and painting are included. Smaller jobs are usually subject to a project minimum, while painted ceilings, repairs, and condo logistics generally increase the total cost.

Yes. Most popcorn ceiling removal projects require skim coating, sanding, primer, and paint to produce a smooth, sealed, finished result. The exact number of coats depends on the condition of the ceiling, the roughness left behind after removal, and the level of finish needed for the room.

Yes, but painted popcorn ceiling removal is usually more difficult and labor-intensive than unpainted texture. Paint can seal the texture, make removal harder, and increase the amount of skim coating and finishing work required afterward to achieve a smooth ceiling.

Popcorn ceiling removal can create dust and debris, especially during removal, repairs, and sanding, but the process can be managed with proper protection and dust control. We use the Festool HEPA vacuum sanding system (Cleantec CT36 and Planex 2) for 99% of sanding in most projects, protect surrounding areas, and complete a thorough cleanup to reduce dust and disruption.

The timeline depends on the square footage, whether the ceiling is painted, how many coats of skim coating are needed, and how much drying time is required between steps. Smaller rooms may be completed quickly, while larger or more complex projects can take several days from preparation through final paint. Most jobs are done within 2-3 days.

Older homes may require asbestos testing before disturbing ceiling texture. If the ceiling is from an older era or the material history is unclear, testing should be completed first so the project scope and removal method can be planned safely and properly. We follow proper asbestos-safe procedures, including testing when required under Ontario Regulation 278/05.

Yes. Popcorn ceiling removal can often be completed in occupied homes with proper room preparation, dust control, and staged scheduling. The setup and workflow matter more when the home is occupied, especially if furniture protection, access limitations, or room-by-room sequencing are needed.
