Residential and Commercial Popcorn Removal
Popcorn ceilings were popular in the ’60s, and 70’s and building owners were prone to this textured ceiling in the ’80s. However, over time, people have realized that these ceilings are hard to clean. Popcorn ceilings also make your home look outdated and hence most homeowners are looking for the best way to remove the surfacing material.

If you still have asbestos in your home, it means that it was either build or remodeled in the ’70s. This time frame is long, and you need to find out whether your popcorn material has asbestos. To carry out this task, moisten close to four small areas on your ceiling that measure approximately an inch square and carefully remove the popcorn material using a putty knife then Ziplock the bag. Take these materials to a local laboratory for testing. If the results display any traces of asbestos, it is advisable to hire a professional to handle the professional popcorn removal exercise. Asbestos has cancer-causing properties, and you don’t have to expose yourself to them by DIY popcorn removal. However, you can proceed if the tests are clean.
The other thing that you should note about popcorn removal is the mess. Once the issue of asbestos is not an obstacle, the process of removing asbestos is straightforward. It is advisable to remove your collectibles and furniture from the room. Put down tarps to minimize the mess including the edges and corners. There are two approaches to eliminating the popcorn ceiling material. One of them is dry sanding the popcorn material off the ceiling even though it generates huge volumes of dust particles and hence should be a reserve of professionals who have specific equipment.
Using a scraper and spray bottle is the most popular way of removing the popcorn ceiling. All you need to do is spray plain water on the part of your ceiling and then use a scraper to peel it off. You should moisten the surface thoroughly without saturating it especially if you intend to paint your underlying drywall. An abundant supply of water will stain the material that is under the popcorn. From this information, you will realize that popcorn removal is not a complicated process. The only challenges that you will face are asbestos and mess. Some homeowners prefer to do it themselves, but you can achieve better results if you allow skilled popcorn ceiling removal companies to implement this project. You may mess up the job hence increase the expenses. Weigh the pros and cons of both approaches and choose the one that will give you the best service.
