Asbestos popcorn ceilings, also called cottage cheese or acoustic ceilings, can be hazardous to your family’s health. This textured finish was popular from the 1950s through the 1980s, and plenty of Kansas City homes from that era still have it. Spray-applied asbestos ceiling texture was banned under the Clean Air Act in 1978, but existing supplies could still be installed afterward, so a ceiling from the early 1980s can contain asbestos too.
ABC Environmental Contracting Services offers these asbestos popcorn ceiling services in Kansas City:
Not every popcorn ceiling contains asbestos, and the only way to know is to test it. DIY kits exist, but they require you to wet and scrape the ceiling and bag the sample yourself, which can release fibers into the air you breathe. The safest approach is to have a professional collect the sample. If your ceiling is intact and has been painted, any asbestos in it may be sealed in and pose little risk as long as it is left alone. If an area is cracked, peeling or water damaged, or you are planning a remodel, call ABC Environmental Contracting Services to test it before anything is disturbed.

Popcorn ceiling removal is physically demanding and, if asbestos is present, dangerous. It calls for a respirator, disposable protective coveralls and eye protection, containment to keep dust out of the rest of the home, and proper disposal of the waste. You are working overhead the whole time and wetting a ceiling that has light fixtures and wiring in it. For all of those reasons, we recommend leaving asbestos popcorn ceiling removal to professionals. For testing or removal of a popcorn ceiling in your Kansas City home, give ABC Environmental Contracting Services a call today.
