Expert Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Chico, CA
Popcorn ceiling removal is one of the most common remodel requests we handle in Chico. Many homes here were built between the 1950s and early 1980s, when textured acoustic ceilings were standard. Ceilings installed before 1980 may contain asbestos, so testing before any scraping begins is a key safety step under California guidelines. We assess the ceiling first, coordinate testing when needed, and only proceed once the material is confirmed safe to disturb. From there, we wet-scrape the texture, repair the drywall substrate, and apply a smooth or retextured finish ready for paint. The result is a flat, modern ceiling that reflects light better and removes a long-standing dust trap from your living space. Whether you own a single-family home near downtown Chico or a rental property in the surrounding area, we handle the full process from ceiling to clean finish. Call us to schedule your assessment.

Popcorn Ceiling Removal FAQ
Common questions about popcorn ceiling removal in Chico, CA.
Testing is the right first step for any Chico home built before 1980. California guidelines require that ceiling material be assessed before it is disturbed, since older texture may contain asbestos.
DIY scraping is not safe if your Chico home predates 1980 and the ceiling has not been tested. Disturbing asbestos-containing material without proper containment can release harmful fibers into the room.
We start with a ceiling assessment and testing if needed, then wet-scrape the texture, repair the drywall, and apply your chosen finish. Chico homeowners get a clean, smooth ceiling ready for paint.
Smooth ceilings are a common buyer preference and can improve the overall presentation of your Chico property. Removing outdated texture is a straightforward update that modernizes any room.
