Full painting
Ceilings (and walls if included in the package) primed and painted. Color match or new color — coordinated so the job finishes complete.

Finish Options After Popcorn Comes Off
| Finish | Best for | Notes for Lafayette homes |
|---|---|---|
| Level 4 smooth | Flat or eggshell paint, normal lighting | Most common choice after removal in older Lafayette homes |
| Level 5 skim | Dark colors, higher sheen, or strong side light | Excellent for Happy Valley customs and modern open kitchens |
| Knockdown | Softer look that hides minor imperfections | Useful on older stock. See texture comparisons. |

Lafayette Homes: Downtown to Happy Valley Customs
Lafayette is an incorporated city in Contra Costa County — ZIP 94549 — known for its hills, established neighborhoods, and upscale customs. Popcorn ceilings appear most often in mid-century through 1980s construction in older sections of Downtown Lafayette and along the Mount Diablo Boulevard corridor. Happy Valley and later custom homes more often start with smoother or lighter textures, but remodels still drive removal requests.
The usual package is full removal on the main living areas or whole house, then a modern smooth finish and paint. Occupied homes need good dust control — we protect floors and contain rooms. Matching one room to the rest of the house still beats a random new texture. Learn more about our popcorn ceiling removal approach.
Send a wide shot of the ceiling plus a close-up in side light. That tells us removal difficulty, finish choice, and paint scope faster than a neighborhood name.
