Serving Caldwell and nearby communities.
Older commercial buildings around downtown Caldwell often still carry popcorn ceilings from decades-old builds, and tenants updating a space usually want it gone or re-textured to something more current. Caldwell Drywall Repair scrapes, smooths, and re-textures commercial ceilings without shutting the whole space down for days.
Because commercial ceilings cover more square footage than a typical home room, the work is planned and sectioned to control dust and keep the rest of the space usable while one area is being finished.

Commercial Popcorn Ceiling Removal FAQs
Can popcorn ceiling removal be done one room at a time in an office building?
We section the work so the rest of the office or retail space stays usable during the project.
Should older popcorn ceilings be tested before removal?
Older ceilings installed before the 1980s can warrant caution; we don't offer testing services, but recommend having the material checked if there's any concern before scraping begins.
How messy is commercial popcorn ceiling removal?
It's a dusty process, which is why we cover furniture and flooring and contain the work area before scraping starts.
What's the alternative to full removal?
We can skim coat and re-texture over existing popcorn in some cases instead of scraping it entirely, depending on ceiling condition.
Does a smooth ceiling cost more than re-texturing?
Smooth finishes usually take more labor to get flat and even, so they run slightly higher than a re-texture.
