When Did they Stop Using Asbestos in Popcorn Ceilings?

The United States Government banned the use of asbestos in ceiling finishes in 1977, so most ceilings installed after this date will not contain this hazardous substance. If your home was built before 1978 it is important to have a professional test for asbestos before attempting removal.

Asbestos doesn't post a health risk if it's left intact, but popcorn ceilings are fragile and crumble easily, which could pose a health risk at the slightest disturbance.

Does Removing Popcorn Ceiling Add Value?

Spraying on a popcorn effect was once hailed as a simple method of finishing a ceiling. Now, you can actually add value to your home simply by removing popcorn ceilings. Not only that, numerous concerns have come up regarding popcorn ceilings over the years.

  • To remove the threat of asbestos – If your ceiling was installed before 1978, it likely contains the hazardous substance asbestos. It is especially necessary to remove the ceiling if it has been damaged or the interior of the ceiling has been exposed.
  • To prevent dust collection – Popcorn ceilings are a magnet for dust. Dusting this type of ceiling is both time-consuming and frustrating. Avoid such a hassle by removing your popcorn ceiling.
  • To halt disintegrating – Popcorn ceilings are a challenge to maintain. As it begins to deteriorate, you will notice white flecks falling onto your floors and furniture. Prolonged exposure to these paint particles can eventually damage surfaces.
  • To deal with discoloration – Over time, a popcorn ceiling will become discolored. A dingy-looking ceiling can detract from the appeal of the room. Another option is to paint over the popcorn ceiling to cover up the discoloration. However, this will make removing the popcorn surface even more difficult in the future.
  • To improve lighting – Popcorn ceilings can actually affect the lighting of a room. As the light bounces off the rough surface, it can cause some harsh shadows. Removing the ceiling material may be the only way to create the relaxed atmosphere you desire.
