Oceanfront condos along A1A and homes west of US-1 both deal with salt air and humidity. We remove old texture and leave a durable, smooth ceiling.
Most requests for popcorn ceiling removal in Juno Beach come from condo owners on the ocean side of town. Buildings along A1A and Ocean Drive face the Atlantic and see a lot of sun, salt and moisture. Older textured ceilings in those units can look tired fast.
We are Palm Beach Popcorn Removal, based in West Palm Beach and focused only on ceilings. In Juno Beach we handle asbestos sampling, scraping, skim coating, knockdown and ceiling paint. Quotes are free and always written.
Juno Beach is a small coastal town with a mix of condos and single-family homes. Much of its oceanfront housing is mid-rise and low-rise condo buildings. West of the dunes, you will find houses and villas on quieter residential streets.
Many of these buildings went up when textured ceilings were still popular. Some owners have already updated. Others still have the original popcorn, often yellowed or stained near vents and windows.
Coastal humidity is hard on loose, porous texture. Popcorn can soak up moisture, hold onto odors and collect dust. Over time, it may sag or flake near leaky windows or air handlers.
A skim-coated ceiling with primer and paint gives a sealed, wipeable surface. It also reflects ocean light more evenly. Our smooth ceilings page explains why we use a full Level 5 skim.
Popcorn was a common finish from the 1950s through the 1980s. Ceilings applied before the mid-1980s can contain asbestos. A lab test is the only way to know for sure.
We take a small sample and send it to an NVLAP-accredited lab. Results take about 3–5 business days, and rush is available. If it is positive, we stop and refer you to a Florida-licensed abatement contractor. Read more on our popcorn ceiling asbestos testing page.
We work across town, from the beach to the western edge:
If you are just over the line in Jupiter or North Palm Beach, we serve you too.
Most Juno Beach owners choose a smooth ceiling. It pairs well with tile floors, white walls and the clean look many coastal units go for. It also makes recessed lighting and new fans look sharper.
A light knockdown is the other common choice. It adds a soft pattern that hides minor flaws and is easier to patch after a ceiling leak. Our knockdown texture page shows how it compares.
Some owners also want the ceiling painted in the same visit. We can prime and paint with a flat ceiling paint that hides small imperfections. See our ceiling painting page for options.
Condo associations in Juno Beach usually set rules for renovation work. You may need board approval, a set work window or a reserved elevator. Some buildings want debris carried out a certain way.
Rules vary — we confirm with your association and the town before starting. We provide a certificate of insurance for condo associations. Our page on condo popcorn ceiling removal and our article on condo HOA approvals explain what to expect.
Containment matters more when you share walls and air. We cover floors, tape walls and hang plastic to close off the work area. HVAC vents are sealed. Misting the texture before scraping keeps dust down, and we HEPA-vacuum at the end.
Our rates per square foot are the same throughout Palm Beach County:
Popcorn that was painted over adds about 25%. Ceilings of 10–12 feet add about 15%, and vaulted ceilings add about 30%. A 12×12 bedroom with skim and paint is usually about $550–$800.
A typical bedroom takes 1–2 days, and a 1,500 sq ft unit or house usually takes 3–5 working days. You can stay home; just keep out of the rooms we are working in that day. See the popcorn ceiling removal cost guide for a deeper breakdown.
We work with the conditions in each unit. Joint compound needs time to dry between coats, and humid air can slow that down. Running your air conditioning during the job helps. Once primed and painted, a smooth ceiling is sealed and easier to keep clean than porous popcorn.
We provide a certificate of insurance for condo associations, and we can describe our scope and containment for the board. Approval itself comes from your association. Rules vary, so we confirm requirements with your association and the town before starting. That way the work fits the building's schedule.
Yes. Many owners start with a living room or primary bedroom. A 12×12 bedroom with skim and paint usually runs about $550–$800. We still test for asbestos first if the building is old enough. Call (561) 000-0000 or get a free quote, and we reply within one business day.
