Don't Scrape It Yourself

Popcorn, or acoustic, ceilings were common in homes built before the 1980s, and many contain asbestos. Left alone and intact they are low risk, but sanding, scraping or water damage can release fibers into the air.

If you aren't sure whether your ceiling contains asbestos, have a sample analyzed by an accredited lab before any work starts. EnviroTech Solutions is a Florida-licensed asbestos abatement company serving Groveland, Clermont, Minneola and Central Florida.

How We Remove an Asbestos Popcorn Ceiling

Plan and protect. The room is emptied and floors and walls are covered
Full containment. Plastic containment and negative air keep fibers inside the work area
Wet removal. The texture is wetted to keep fibers down and removed by technicians in protective gear
Bag and dispose. Waste is sealed and disposed of following asbestos regulations
Clean up. The area is cleaned before containment comes down

Water-Damaged Popcorn Ceilings

A roof or plumbing leak can soak a popcorn ceiling and make it sag or crumble, which is exactly when asbestos fibers are most likely to be released. Because we handle both water damage and asbestos abatement, one team can dry the home and remove the ceiling safely.

Popcorn Ceiling Questions

No. Many installed before the 1980s do, newer ones generally don't. A sample analyzed by an accredited lab is the only way to know for sure.

Encapsulating an intact ceiling with paint is sometimes an option, but it doesn't remove the asbestos, and any future remodeling, leaks or repairs will still disturb it.

It depends on the size of the area. Containment and cleanup take as long as the removal itself, and we'll give you the schedule up front.
