Popcorn Ceilings: Scrape Them or Cover Them?

Removing a popcorn ceiling is one of the highest-impact updates in a home, and there are two ways to do it: scrape and skim it smooth, or drywall over it. Scraping is cleaner-looking when the ceiling underneath is sound, while covering can make sense over damaged or stubborn textures. Either way it is dusty work, so the prep matters: plastic on the walls, floors covered, and a careful cleanup. We will look at your ceiling, tell you honestly which approach fits, and give you a written estimate for a smooth, modern finish.
