Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Augusta, KS

Augusta is in Butler County, east of Andover on US-54, a short drive from the east side of Wichita. It grew up as an oil and railroad town, so it has more older housing than most of the newer suburbs around the city. Walk the streets near downtown and you will find early 1900s homes next to postwar ranches and split levels.

That mix matters for ceilings. The ranches and split levels from the 1960s and 70s are the ones most likely to have the original sprayed popcorn texture. Older houses sometimes got popcorn added later, often over plaster that has been patched more than once. Plaster ceilings need a gentler hand than drywall, so we look at what is under the texture before we quote. Newer homes on the edges of town usually have knockdown or orange peel, which is a different job.

If your Augusta house was built before the mid 1980s, plan on an asbestos test before anyone scrapes. Our asbestos page explains how that works and what a positive result means. After that, the process is the same as anywhere else. Rooms get sealed in plastic, the texture is wetted and scraped, debris is bagged, and the ceiling is patched and sanded so it is ready for a smooth or knockdown finish. Our cost page has current Wichita area ranges.
