Dated popcorn texture scraped, skimmed, and refinished to a modern smooth or knockdown ceiling — with full dust containment. Serving Lenoir City and all of Loudon County — about 30 minutes from our knoxville base.
Lenoir City is booming along the Highway 321 corridor with new subdivisions, while lakefront homes on Fort Loudoun and Tellico see humidity-related tape failures and ceiling stains. Lake-house drywall needs the right primer and moisture strategy or repairs come back within a year.
We handle a steady stream of lake-home repairs here — if your ceiling seams are cracking every winter, it's usually truss uplift or humidity cycling, and we fix the cause, not just the symptom.
Popcorn removal is priced per square foot and depends on whether ceilings are painted (painted popcorn takes more work) and the finish you want. Most single rooms run $400–$900; whole-home projects get package pricing.
Pre-1980s popcorn texture can contain asbestos, which is common in older Lenoir City homes. We recommend a simple lab test first (inexpensive and fast). If it's positive, licensed abatement comes before we refinish; if negative, we proceed with standard wet-scrape removal.
With the right prep, barely at all. We seal the room in plastic, protect floors, wet-scrape to keep dust down, and HEPA-vacuum afterward. Most Lenoir City clients are surprised the rest of the house stays clean.
Most homeowners choose a smooth Level 5 finish or a light knockdown. Smooth looks the most modern; knockdown is more forgiving and slightly more economical. We'll show you samples of both.
