Technical Specification & Engineering
Acoustic Stipple Removal and Smooth Flat Ceiling Conversion
Transforming dated acoustic popcorn ceilings into modern smooth flat ceilings with full room poly containment and level-5 skim coating.
Popcorn and acoustic stipple ceilings collect dust, cast harsh shadows, and date home interiors. Converting textured ceilings to smooth flat finishes modernizes living spaces and enhances lighting clarity.
Rooms are fully sealed with floor-to-ceiling plastic containment. The acoustic texture is hydrated to soften binders, allowing clean scraping without damaging the underlying drywall paper.
Ceiling planes are skim-coated with multiple thin passes of joint compound, sanded flat under raking work lights, and painted with dead-flat ceiling white for a smooth, glare-free finish.
