Ready for smooth ceilings?
Text photos for a same-day ballpark. Serving Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Hamilton, Milton, Etobicoke.
Will it be dusty?
We seal rooms, cover floors and vents, and use vacuum-assist sanding. Most dust is captured at the source.
What if my popcorn is painted?
We use a resurfacing approach: create key, bond, then full-plane skim to Level-5 flatness.
How long does it take?
Typical homes: 3–5 days depending on size, drying conditions, and add-ons (repairs, pot-lights).
Do you handle clean-up?
Yes. Protection comes off, HEPA vacuum, wipe-down, fixtures back on — rooms ready to use.
