Recently we removed popcorn in a home in the Wekiva area of Seminole County.  The popcorn was not painted but had a heavy coat of orange peel texture on it, so it made removing just a little bit difficult.  The joints were completely reskimmed so it had a fresh look to it, as well we did some drywall repair work in the home.  This particular house had 3 very tall skylights with minimum clearance to get in and this made removal a bit difficult.

After the removal, we sprayed the texture and let it dry for two days to come back and paint.  I put a bead of caulk throughout the entire house were the ceiling met with the walls so it would leave a nice line for when the walls were painted.  We first painted the ceiling with a all-in-one primer and paint that the homeowner purchased for us to use.  The color turned out to be a little on the glossy side so we redid the ceiling in a flat finish.  It gave it less of a sheen and came out perfect.  We also repainted the walls completely.  The total project took 6 days to complete, from removal to an entire new coat of paint.
