Popcorn ceilings installed before the 1980s are likely to contain asbestos, a hazardous material known to cause serious health issues when disturbed. Asbestos fibers can become airborne during removal, posing a risk of respiratory problems and even cancer if inhaled. Prior to starting acoustic tile or popcorn ceilings, test for asbestos. Should the test be positive for asbestos, work with asbestos abatement professionals for removal.
Five Star Paintings’ Removal Process
Popcorn ceiling removal can be a lengthy and messy project. Our skilled team and specialized equipment ensure a swift and efficient removal process, leaving you with a fresh, smooth ceiling. We prioritize a dust-free environment and utilize state-of-the-art Festool sander and vac systems for an exceptional finish.
The process we use to remove your popcorn ceiling depends on when the ceiling was built, where the ceiling is located, and the final ceiling finish. Whether it’s painting or popcorn ceiling removal, all of our jobs begin with a free estimate. Once we have your approval to begin work, the removal process will begin. We start by securing the work area. Plastic and drop cloths are used to seal the area and protect the interior of your home.
After we remove the popcorn ceiling material, our professionals will repair, retexture (if necessary), or replace the ceiling drywall. Once the ceiling is prepped, we apply the new paint, leaving you with a beautifully finished ceiling.
Alternatives to Popcorn Ceiling Removal
Popcorn ceiling removal is a messy process. Sometimes, it's easier to cover up a popcorn ceiling with drywall, skim coat the popcorn ceiling with drywall mud, or even replace it with new drywall. However, these methods will depend on the existing condition of the ceiling, where it is in the home, and other factors that will be assessed by our experts.
