The Benefits of Popcorn Ceiling Removal - 
Painter in Toronto
Popcorn ceiling removal is messy and time consuming, so 
it's not for the faint of heart. It's about scraping off the 
existing texture, re-texturing the ceiling, and then 
painting the finished product. But as long as you're ready 
to get going, this complicated project isn't very difficult or 
technical.
The main reward of removal is a substantial monetary 
benefit. According to Toronto Painters, you can do it 
yourself if you have all the equipment and knowledge 
about it.
Removing the popcorn cap also pays off when trying to 
sell your home. While a cap without popcorn will not 
increase the value of your home, it does significantly 
improve its marketability. A marketable home tends to 
retain more interest, sell faster, and collect more of its 
original sale price than homes without desirable updates.

Things you will need to remove popcorn ceiling
Before you start scratching and redrawing, head to your local hardware store, and purchase the 
following items that recommend for Popcorn ceiling removal Toronto.
Plastic drops. Once you start scratching the ceiling, pieces of texture and grain fall to the floor and 
furniture. Buy several plastic drop sheets that you can use to protect your furniture and floors. You 
can always replace the old leaves, but only if you are willing to throw them away after use. If you 
are using a sheet of fabric that is not waterproof, be extra careful when spraying the ceiling. 
Painter's tape. Use it to secure drop cloths.
Ladder. Depending on the height of your ceilings, you may need a small step ladder to reach the 
popcorn. 
Protective equipment. Expect the texture to fall on you. Protect yourself with safety glasses, a face 
shield, and rubber gloves.
Pump sprayer. Before you start scraping, use a pump sprayer that moistens and loosens the 
texture. 
Ceiling Texture Scraper. Go for a pattern that helps catch some of the falling texture to reduce 
damage.
Composed of drywall (joint compound). Expect to repair parts of the ceiling after scraping off the texture with 
the drywall compound. Also, use the compound to create the ceiling finish - either smooth or textured.
Sanding sponge. If you are using a drywall compound for repairs, a sanding sponge will level the compound.
Putty knife and utility knife. The putty knife is for applying the compound, and the utility knife is for cleaning dry, 
rough edges.
Large trowel for a smooth finish. If you want your ceilings to have a smooth finish, use a large trowel to apply the 
drywall compound after the texture is removed.
Texture sprayer for a textured finish. If you want your ceilings to have a textured finish, but don't want to do the 
hand-texturing, use a texture sprayer. Avoid the purchase price by renting one for a day.
White ceiling paint. To complete the project, paint the ceiling to provide a seal of protection. One gallon of ceiling 
paint covers up to 300 square feet.
Paintbrushes If you paint your ceiling by hand, purchase paint rollers and brushes to finish the job.
Paint sprayer (optional). If you're doing more than one room, consider renting a paint sprayer instead of using 
brushes or rollers. A paint sprayer can speed up the painting process considerably.
