They were friendly and easy to work with, showed up when they said they would, and really paid attention to the details. Everything was prepped and taped off the right way, and they kept things tidy throughout the project.
Our kitchen looks completely transformed, and it feels like a brand-new space now. Highly recommend.
The team was also incredibly punctual, respectful of our space, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. If you’re looking for a reliable, skilled, and friendly painting company, I highly recommend Bearcat Painting. We’ll definitely be using them again for future projects!

Our Popcorn Ceiling Removal & Painting Process
1
In-Home Consultation
We protect your home by covering floors, walls, fixtures, and furniture with plastic sheeting. HVAC vents are sealed, and containment barriers are installed to control dust and debris.
2
Room Preparation & Containment
We begin with an on-site consultation to assess ceiling condition, texture thickness, and square footage. For homes built before the mid-1980s, we recommend proper asbestos testing prior to removal to ensure safety and compliance.
3
Controlled Texture Removal
Using professional-grade tools and moisture-application methods, we carefully soften and remove the popcorn texture without damaging the drywall beneath.
4
Surface Repairs & Skim Coating
After removal, we inspect the ceiling for imperfections. Nail holes, seams, and damaged areas are repaired. We then apply skim coating as needed to create a smooth, modern finish.
5
Sand, Prime, Paint
Once dry, the ceiling is sanded smooth and prepared for priming. Proper prep ensures the final coat looks clean and uniform. We apply a high-quality primer followed by a premium ceiling paint for a bright, even appearance that enhances your room.
