How we approach ceiling & stipple work in Ottawa
Ceilings are their own trade, which is why they get their own page here rather than a line on the drywall list. The work is overhead, the dust travels through the whole floor, and the finish is judged under raking window light that hides nothing. Stipple and popcorn removal is the most requested version: the texture is soaked, scraped, skimmed flat, sanded and primed, with poly on the floors and plastic over every doorway. Anything sprayed before roughly 1990 gets tested for asbestos before a scraper touches it — no exceptions, and we will tell you to stop and test rather than take the job. The rest is repair: brown water rings, hairline cracks radiating from a light box, and sag between joists where the board has taken on moisture.
