Drywall estimate template for popcorn ceilings.

Popcorn removal starts with a lab test and ends with a smooth ceiling. This estimate prices every step in between by the square foot, and says what happens if the test comes back positive.

Valid for 30 days. Removal goes ahead only if the asbestos test is negative. If it's positive, work stops and you'll need a licensed abatement contractor; you pay only for the test.
Rooms empty, or furniture centered and covered by us.
We contain the dust with plastic, but expect some fine dust in the house.
Deposit due at scheduling, balance on completion.

Why it's laid out this way

  • The asbestos test first, as its own line
  • Removal, skim and prime all per sq ft of the same ceiling
  • The finish level named, since level 5 is what makes a flat ceiling look flat
  • Protection and debris priced so the customer sees the cleanup work
  • A clear stop if the test is positive

Or build it by chat

Say "quote Janet Lindqvist popcorn removal: 1,100 square feet, asbestos test first, skim to level 5, five patches, prime, 25% deposit" and Redline builds the itemized estimate on her file. Send a photo of the ceiling and it can work from that too.

Redline doesn't give her an approval link; you go over it during the walkthrough or email her from your Gmail. Then set a reminder for the day the lab results are due. See quotes and estimates or the drywall software page.

Quote the next ceiling by chat.

Redline is free to start. Give it the square footage and it lays out the lines.
