Remove Your Popcorn Ceilings — Instantly Modernize Your Home
Nothing dates a Florida home faster than popcorn ceilings. Popular in homes built between the 1950s and 1990s, the textured acoustic spray finish — also called cottage cheese ceiling or acoustic ceiling — is now widely recognized as an instant signal of an outdated interior. Palm Beach Plaster provides professional popcorn ceiling removal and refinishing throughout Palm Beach County, Martin County, St. Lucie County, and Indian River County.
Our popcorn ceiling removal process is clean, efficient, and results in a smooth or custom-textured ceiling that transforms the entire feel of a room. Many of our clients tell us that removing their popcorn ceilings was the single most impactful interior update they made — more dramatic than repainting, more noticeable than new flooring.
Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Process
Preparation & Protection — All furniture, flooring, and surfaces fully protected before work begins. We contain the mess completely.
Asbestos Awareness — Homes built before 1980 may have asbestos-containing popcorn texture. We follow proper protocols and recommend testing before removal on older homes.
Texture Removal — Popcorn texture is carefully wetted and scraped, removing the existing coating without damaging the drywall substrate beneath.
Surface Repair — Any underlying damage, tape joints, or imperfections exposed during removal are repaired before refinishing.
Refinish Options — We offer smooth Level 5 finish, knockdown texture, or any other finish style to match your preference and the rest of your home.
Clean Worksite — Complete cleanup after every job. You'll return to a clean, transformed space — no dust, no debris.
Smooth Finish vs. New Texture — What's Right for Your Home?
After popcorn ceiling removal, most South Florida homeowners choose one of two paths: a smooth Level 5 finish for a clean, modern look, or a knockdown texture for a softer aesthetic that still hides minor imperfections. If your home has smooth walls, a smooth ceiling finish creates a cohesive, contemporary look. If your walls have knockdown texture, matching that pattern on the ceiling creates continuity throughout. Our team will walk you through both options and recommend the right choice for your specific home.
