2000 square feet is not a one day job.

The ceiling has to be scraped, floated, sanded, refloated, primed and painted in my experience.

It's a mess if the house is occupied. But sure looks nice after.

I would be checking with local paint contractors, or check with paint stores to find someone to do it.

Ok, thanks, yeah I was actually just referring to actual removal of the popcorn/asbestos material.

Not necessarily. I had popcorn removed from my house in Florida. The sheetrock underneath the popcorn was finished well and we were able to just paint it.

Understatement. Did my old house, looked good when it was done but damn it was a mess.
