Popcorn Removal Company

Serving Metro Atlanta & North Georgia


Popcorn ceilings became popular in the late 1950s. Also known as cottage cheese ceiling or Stucco ceilings, this home decorating technique peaked in the 1980s. Many homeowners liked the bright, white look and interesting texture of popcorn ceilings. Others liked the way popcorn ceilings reduced noise.

Despite falling out of favor, there are still many homes in the Atlanta area with popcorn ceilings today. Many people encounter popcorn ceilings when they buy existing homes since these houses tend to be older. Some homes have popcorn ceilings in kitchens, hallways and bedrooms. Some homes even have popcorn ceilings in the garage.

Our Popcorn Removal contractors make sure that your home or business gets the best Popcorn Removal application possible. We thoroughly pressure wash the area before painting and apply mildecide. We also scrape down any inconsistencies, like peeling paint, from your surfaces and prime all bare wood. Finally, we will caulk any open gaps to ensure that no moisture can interfere with the look and comfort of your home or business.

Unfortunately, some homebuilders used popcorn ceilings to cover poor workmanship and imperfections in drywall. The rough texture that gives popcorn ceilings their distinctive look easily hides defects. Many popcorn ceilings were made with asbestos, a toxic ingredient that was banned in 1978. After 1979, contractors used styrofoam or paper-based products to create the popcorn texture.
