Bellwood Color Craft Painting removes textured popcorn ceilings across Shorewood homes — no dust clouds, no messy DIY disasters, just clean, smooth ceilings done right.
Popcorn ceiling removal in Shorewood, IL starts at $149 per room. Bellwood Color Craft Painting is a licensed, insured Illinois painting company that safely removes textured ceilings using a professional wet-scrape method that keeps dust contained. A standard removal job includes furniture covering, plastic sheeting, wet scraping, drywall prep, and a smooth finish coat. We work throughout Shorewood and the surrounding Cook County suburbs, with most single rooms completed in one day.
Popcorn texture hides water stains and imperfections. Scraping it yourself without the right gear creates a dust storm that takes weeks to clean. Our full popcorn ceiling removal services page covers our statewide approach in more depth.
Dry scraping showers your entire house in dust that settles in carpets, vents, and furniture for months.
Popcorn hides cracked drywall and water stains. You don't know what's underneath until you scrape.
Getting that smooth finish after removal takes a thin, even compound coat — that's a pro's job.
Homes built before 1980 may have asbestos in the texture. We test and handle it safely.
No hidden surprises. Here's exactly what happens from drop cloths to the final smooth ceiling.
Same room, same walls — just the texture gone and a clean, flat ceiling that makes the whole room feel taller.
