Popcorn ceilings were once popular for hiding imperfections, but today they make homes look dated and can trap dust, allergens, and moisture. Sunshine Painting Contractors provides professional popcorn ceiling removal services across South Florida, helping homeowners modernize their spaces with smooth, clean, updated ceilings.
Our team removes popcorn texture safely, efficiently, and with minimal disruption to your home.
Popcorn ceilings are no longer desirable in modern homes. Many South Florida homeowners choose removal for both visual and practical reasons.
Popcorn ceilings instantly age a home and reduce resale appeal.
The rough texture traps dust, pet dander, and cobwebs.
South Florida’s humidity can cause popcorn ceilings to stain, sag, or grow mold.
Popcorn texture absorbs light and makes rooms feel darker and smaller.
Removing the texture creates a smooth surface that reflects light and enhances your interior.
Short answer : Popcorn ceiling removal eliminates outdated acoustic texture and replaces it with a smooth, modern ceiling that looks cleaner, brighter, and increases home value.
Detailed answer:
Popcorn ceilings trap dust, discolor easily in Florida humidity, and make homes look older. Sunshine Painting Contractors removes the texture, repairs the surface, and applies a premium finish that modernizes any room. Homeowners choose removal for better air quality, resale value, and a sleek updated design.
Short answer: We use a safe, dust-controlled process tailored to South Florida homes.
Detailed answer:
Our step-by-step method includes:
Full room protection with plastic sheeting and floor coverings
Texture moisture-softening for safe removal
Professional scraping without damaging drywall
Ceiling repairs, skim-coating, and smoothing

Short answer: Only if the ceiling is from before the 1980s, but testing is recommended for safety.
Detailed answer:
Older popcorn textures may contain asbestos. Sunshine Painting Contractors helps coordinate professional testing when needed. If asbestos is found, we follow strict Florida compliance guidelines and partner with licensed abatement specialists.
Short answer: Most rooms take 1–2 days; full homes vary based on size and condition.
Detailed answer:
Small areas finish quickly, while large or damaged ceilings may require extra repair time. We provide a precise timeline after an on-site inspection. Our crews work efficiently to minimize disruption and keep your home functional.
Short answer: Average pricing ranges from $1.50 to $3.50 per sq. ft., depending on condition.
Detailed answer:
Pricing depends on square footage, ceiling height, repairs needed, paint selection, and whether asbestos testing is required. Sunshine Painting Contractors always provides upfront, itemized estimates with no hidden fees.
Short answer: No — we use dust-control methods, sealed work areas, and complete cleanup.
Detailed answer:
We cover floors, walls, vents, and furniture. Our team uses professional containment barriers and high-filtration systems to reduce dust. After finishing, we clean the entire workspace so your home looks fresh and ready to enjoy.

Smooth ceilings perform better in humid and coastal homes. Popcorn texture absorbs moisture, stains easily, and collects allergens. A modern finish brightens rooms and raises the perceived value of your property.
Short answer: You can, but removal gives a far better long-term result.

Painting seals in texture but doesn’t stop dust buildup or discoloration. Removal followed by resurfacing and painting delivers a cleaner, healthier, and more updated look.
