Asbestos Assessment & Safe Handling Support

If your building was constructed before 1990, it’s smart to have asbestos testing in ceilings done before any work begins. Many older houses were built with asbestos, which is a known carcinogen. At Imagine Painting, we can help you arrange professional asbestos assessments and guide you through safe removal procedures. If asbestos is found, we ensure your popcorn ceiling repair or removal project complies with all local safety and compliance regulations.

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process

A predictable, well-managed removal process is critical to a great renovation experience. Our ceiling resurfacing approach is designed to minimize disruption to your home or business, so you can enjoy peace of mind from start to finish. From the first inspection to the final paint, Imagine Painting handles every step with utmost professionalism.

On-Site Inspection & Detailed Project Quote

Every project starts with a detailed on-site inspection because we need to know all the details to ensure we can give you a fair and valid cost estimate. We will assess your ceiling’s condition, materials, square footage, and finishing needs to determine if a light or deep skim coating or full ceiling resurfacing is required. You’ll receive a clear, upfront quote with no surprises. Our transparent pricing makes it easy to understand your ceiling resurfacing cost per square foot before any work begins, no fees, no surcharges.

Containment and Dust-Control Preparation

Protecting your home is our top priority. Before we start with any ceiling work, we set up HEPA filtration containment systems, seal HVAC vents, and mask floors and walls with protective plastic. This dust-free renovation process keeps your home clean and safe while we work. You can continue living comfortably in your space, even while your ceilings are being taken care of.

Ceiling Texture Removal & Surface Refinement

Once everything is prepared, we move on to the ceiling texture removal phase. Depending on your ceiling type, we use either a wet or a dry method for safe removal. Afterward, we repair imperfections with drywall patching, joint compound ceiling repair, and skim coating to create a smooth, seamless surface. We will pass over every part multiple times during the sanding process to ensure an even finish with no transition lines, resulting in a polished, modern ceiling.

Primer Application & Final Ceiling Painting

The final stage is priming and painting. We start with a professional-grade primer to ensure even paint coverage and long-lasting results. Then we finish with premium ceiling paint, typically in a flat sheen to reduce glare and enhance your lighting. This attention to detail ensures your ceiling looks uniform, bright, and refined.
