Trusted Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Austin, TX
Smooth, clean ceilings by Medrano's PaintingOld popcorn ceilings make a home feel dated, and they trap dust and cobwebs you can never fully clean. Our popcorn ceiling removal gives you a smooth, modern finish without the mess and guesswork of doing it yourself. Medrano's Painting has served Austin homeowners since 2014, and we are licensed and insured. We protect your floors and furniture, scrape with care, and leave your ceilings ready to paint.
Why Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Stands Out
We treat your home like our own. Before we scrape a single ceiling, we cover your floors, walls, and furniture to keep dust and debris off your things. Our team smooths every seam and patch so the finished ceiling looks even in any light. We use quality materials and proven steps, then we clean up so you can enjoy the room right away.
What Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal Service Includes
As trusted popcorn ceiling removal contractors, we handle the full job from start to finish:
- Scrape and remove popcorn ceiling texture from every room
- Smooth ceiling after popcorn removal for a flat, even finish
- Patch cracks, seams, and small holes before we paint
- Popcorn ceiling removal and retexture if you want a new look
- Paint the ceiling so it looks fresh and bright
- Full cleanup of dust and debris when the work is done
Many homeowners pair ceiling work with interior painting to refresh the whole room, and we can handle drywall repair on the same visit if your ceiling needs patching first.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal for Austin Homes
Many Austin homes built before the 1990s still have textured ceilings, so popcorn ceiling removal in Austin TX is a common upgrade. Our local humidity and seasonal heat can make old ceiling texture crack, sag, or stain over time. We know how these older homes are built across Austin and nearby towns like Round Rock, Cedar Park, and Pflugerville. That local know-how helps us plan each job the right way.
Signs It May Be Time to Remove Your Popcorn Ceiling
Here are some common signs that tell you it may be time to remove that textured ceiling:
- Bumpy ceiling texture that traps dust and looks dated
- Stains or yellowing on a textured or acoustic ceiling
- Pieces of popcorn texture flaking or falling off
- Cracks spreading across the ceiling surface
- You want to paint but the rough texture gets in the way

Popcorn Ceiling Removal FAQs
The cost depends on a few things, like the size of the ceiling, how many rooms you want done, and whether the surface needs extra patching or retexture after we scrape. Stained or damaged ceilings can take more work, which affects the price. The best way to get a real number is a free, no-obligation quote. We visit your Austin home, look at the ceilings, and give you a clear estimate with no surprises.
For most homeowners, yes. Smooth ceilings look more modern, are easier to keep clean, and often help with home value. Popcorn texture traps dust and can stain over time, and it makes painting harder. Removing it gives you a fresh, flat surface you can paint any color. We have helped many Austin families update older homes this way, and they are glad they did it.
It depends on the size of the space and how many ceilings you want done. A single room often goes faster, while a whole home takes more time, especially if we patch and repaint after. Older Austin homes sometimes need extra prep, which can add time. When we visit for your free quote, we will give you a clear timeline so you know what to expect from start to finish.
Some older ceilings, often those installed before the late 1970s, can contain asbestos. Because of this, it is smart to have older ceilings tested before any scraping begins. We always take safety seriously and will talk you through the right steps for your home. Many Austin homes from that era have textured ceilings, so this is a question we hear often and are happy to explain during your visit.
You can paint over popcorn texture, but it does not fix the dated, bumpy look, and it can be tricky since the texture soaks up paint and flakes. Most homeowners who want a clean, modern ceiling choose full popcorn ceiling removal and then paint the smooth surface. We can do both, scrape the texture and paint the ceiling, so you get a fresh finish that lasts. We will help you pick the right option.
After we scrape the texture, the ceiling needs to be smoothed, patched where needed, and painted for a clean finish. Some homeowners also choose a light retexture for a softer look. We handle all of this in one job, so you do not have to line up different crews. When the work is done, we clean up the dust and debris and leave your room ready to enjoy.
