Outdated ceilings scraped, skim-coated, and refinished smooth or with a modern knockdown texture.

Overview
Popcorn ceilings make a room feel dated and trap dust. We contain the work area, scrape the texture, repair the substrate, skim coat to a flat surface, then leave it smooth or apply a modern texture of your choice. Always test for asbestos in homes built before 1980.
Why Franky's
We seal off the room and protect your floors and furniture before a single scrape happens.
Going smooth is timeless. A light knockdown can hide imperfections and update the look. We'll help you choose.
If your home is pre-1980 we'll insist on testing before we touch the ceiling — your safety isn't optional.

FAQ

Smooth ceilings look modern and bright but show every imperfection. A light knockdown is forgiving and still feels current. Both look better than popcorn.
