Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Framingham, MA
Pre-1980 texture gets tested before anything is scraped. Then skim smooth, prime and paint.
On Framingham properties
Wall surfaces in Framingham are mostly what the original builders put up. North Framingham is heavily shaded, and mildew on north elevations is an annual issue. We match the substrate rather than skimming compound over it and hoping.
Our process
Pre-1980 texture gets tested before anything is scraped. Then skim smooth, prime and paint.
Anything applied before the early 1980s gets tested before a scraper touches it. Once cleared, it's wetted, scraped, skim coated to flat, sanded, primed and finished.
What usually fails
Dry-scraping untested texture. It's dusty, it's messy, and on older ceilings it's a genuine health question rather than a housekeeping one.
