Transform Your Wilmington Home with Popcorn Ceiling Removal by That 1 Painter

Is your Wilmington home still outdated with bumpy, cracked popcorn ceilings? In our climate with cold winters and humid summers, these textured surfaces easily trap moisture, dirt, and allergens, fueling deterioration and mold growth.

OUR PROCESS

STEP 1

In-Depth Evaluation

We thoroughly examine your ceilings, testing for asbestos and checking for cracks, leaks, and moisture damage common in our climate. We consider layout, materials, and environment.

STEP 2

Protection Prep

We completely seal off rooms, cover surfaces, and set up industrial dehumidifiers to control moisture and contain dust/debris.

STEP 3

Controlled Removal

Using specialized scraping tools and gentle moisture techniques, we safely remove the bumpy texture down to the smooth base layer underneath.

STEP 4

Repair and Refine

We properly fill any cracks or imperfections so ceilings are smooth and structurally reinforced to prevent future moisture issues.

STEP 5

Prime and Paint

After ensuring ceilings are fully dry per manufacturer guidelines, we apply high-adhesion primer and durable, moisture-resistant paint.

Don’t worry! Our licensed specialists safely remove asbestos by containment standards, following strict EPA protocols we adhere to across the state. We have extensive asbestos remediation experience.

Do you also fix other ceiling damage like cracks and leaks worsened by winter/summer weather?

Yes! We’ll repair any flaws exposed during removal, leaving your ceilings smooth, reinforced, and primed for paint. We want them pristine before applying moisture-resistant coatings.
