Popcorn Ceiling Removal Dellwood MN

If you are looking for a new house, you should turn down those options that contain popcorn ceilings. Not only are popcorn surfaces things of the past, but they also possess health risks. Moreover, they decrease the value of your house should you decide to sell it one day. And to make matters worse, popcorn ceiling removal is not as straightforward as you might think. Here are some more details. Popcorn Ceiling Removal Dellwood MN

Safety First

The major reason why people stopped getting popcorn ceilings was because asbestos was declared to be highly carcinogenic. Asbestos was used all throughout the time between 1930 and 1990 to make the spray material for popcorn ceilings. It is not certain that the ceiling in your home will have traces of this mineral fiber, but even if there is a slight chance of it being present, you shouldn’t take the risk as no amount of asbestos contact is safe. Asbestos accumulates in the body with every single exposure, and there is no medical way of reversing the damage done. Since fibers are easily inhaled once they become airborne, you would also have to take precaution to not disturb these ceilings.

Outdated Looks

Suppose luck’s on your side and you find a place whose ceilings are asbestos-free. Still, why would you want your new place to have antiquated features. Yes, popcorn ceilings were the fashion choice of the 20th century. However, smooth ceilings have taken over and are much more appealing to the eye. In addition, the bumps and crevices readily gather cobwebs, dirt, and dust which makes them difficult to clean. Moreover, smoke can eventually stain your ceiling, and this can be difficult to remove. Lastly, if you live in a humid area or if your ceiling is in a moist environment (the bathroom or the kitchen for example), you would have to deal with a lot of flaking as these surfaces absorb moisture and easily come off.

Removal Might Just Be The Tip Of The Iceberg

If suppose you buy the house thinking you can later remove the ceiling yourself. You might want to rethink. As mentioned earlier, you should not disturb these surfaces for fear of releasing asbestos fibres. Hiring professionals, such as Home Drywall & Painting, would be the only way out. Moreover, the underlaying surface might be unfinished or have may have faults such as cracks or leakages. So, popcorn surface removal might just prove to be the first step; you would then need consider finishing the ceiling and then coming with the finish you want.
