Asbestos, a hazardous material, was commonly used in the construction of popcorn ceilings before 1978. To ensure safety, it's crucial to have these ceilings tested for Asbestos before any removal or construction project in older properties.
Disturbed Asbestos particles can become airborne, posing health hazards when inhaled or settled into vents and carpets. Inhalation has been linked to serious illnesses like mesothelioma. Removing Asbestos-containing materials requires professional expertise for safe execution.

The specific removal process depends on factors such as ceiling age, location, and desired finish.
