Home Improvement question

Completely irrelevant, but whoever decided that popcorn ceilings were a brilliant idea needs to be shot.

There's a guy here in Austin who will remove it for $1.25/SqFt. I am pretty sure that doesn't include paint.

i removed it myself in my first house, but don't have the time to do it myself this go-round.

There was a funny story about cleaning ceilings on "At Home with Gary Sullivan", a radio show. Guy called in and said he had a candle floating in a bowl of melted wax on his piano. For whatever reason it exploded. Some wax ended up on the ceiling and hardened when it cooled. He was afraid to use anything abrasive to get it off. The solution... Steam Iron and Ladder.
