Scottsdale Popcorn Ceiling Removal

What Is Popcorn Ceiling? 

Textured ceilings became big in the 60s’ and have remained a staple interior design choice in houses around the world ever since. The popcorn texture was the king of them all and has made a recent comeback in this time of retro and vintage style trends.  

Popcorn walls and ceilings have a rough bubbled appearance and can be beneficial in many homes. However, it is not for everyone. Aside from being a love it or hate it design choice, popcorn ceiling asbestos is a concern in properties pre-dating the mid-80s’, so it is necessity to have it removed and replaced before starting any renovations.  

Why Hire a Professional to Remove It? 

Removing popcorn ceiling and refinishing the area left behind is a complicated job with many ins and outs. As we already mentioned, there are potential hazards involved when removing asbestos popcorn ceiling, as well as a significant risk of black mold after popcorn ceiling water damage.  

Those little bubbles may add character and depth to a room, but they also add a fair deal of detail for the removal team to deal with. Removing painted popcorn ceiling takes time, precision, attention to detail, and a lot of patience. It is not something that anyone should tackle without professional help.  

Other than the already mentioned health risks, here are a few more reasons why hiring a professional is the only intelligent choice for popcorn ceiling repair and removal: 

• Textured drywall is tricky to work with and can get very messy very quickly. No homeowner wants unnecessary mess on their property! 
• Specialist equipment is often required in these jobs, which is difficult to find, complicated to operate, and very expensive to hire. A professional team has access to everything they need. 
• When removing any ceiling, you need to be careful not to damage structural supports behind the plasterboard. One wrong move and you have some potentially serious problems. 
• After the removal, your home is left with a pretty unsightly space. Professionals can get things patched up and refinished to perfection based on your specifications and desires.
