A man smoothing out a ceiling.Popcorn ceilings can really be an eyesore, especially if you’ve had it for a long time. It’s an outdated look that no one wants anymore, plus it could be potentially dangerous to have in your home if it contains asbestos. Instead of going through all the hard work and making a huge mess on your own, it’s worth it to hire a popcorn removal company to help you get the job done right.

Here are the benefits you can expect when your hire a professional.

You’ll Avoid Damaging the Ceiling

It’s likely drywall that lies behind your popcorn ceiling. When removing the popcorn material that sits on top, it can be easy to accidentally damage the drywall. Scraping the ceiling is not an easy process and damaging it can make the painting process far more difficult.

There’s Far Less Labor on Your Part

Depending on the size of your ceiling, removing popcorn can take anywhere from a couple hours to several days of hard labor to remove properly. Standing on a ladder for extended periods of time while exerting force upward is a very tiring chore indeed. If you aren’t prepared to commit to a labor-intensive, time-consuming project like popcorn removal, hiring a popcorn removal company is absolutely the way to go.

They Have the Right Tools for the Job

It makes no sense to buy tools that you’re only going to use once. It’s more feasible to hire a professional who not only has the correct tools already, but the most effective ones for the job. Additionally, a professional knows the best way to create a plan for popcorn removal, especially since they’ve done it so many times already.

You Can Avoid Toxic Exposure

Besides all the dust from the popcorn itself, as well as dust and grime that’s collected on the ceiling since you moved in, you’ll be able to avoid toxic exposure to the possible chemicals in your ceiling. Popcorn ceilings are more likely to contain asbestos, especially if your home was constructed before 1970. Asbestos aggravates lung tissue and can even cause cancer if inhaled.

When you hire a professional, they’ll be able to test your ceiling for asbestos before starting any work. This way, you and the professional can take the necessary precautions to minimize exposure to harmful chemicals and ceiling material.

You Can Discuss Paint Options with a Professional

Removing a popcorn ceiling that’s already been painted is a far more difficult task on your own. Since most popcorn removal companies also provide painting services, you can get started planning the color scheme for the room once the popcorn is gone! The professional you hired will provide their recommendations and even offer you an estimate if you’d like to get the ceiling painted by them.

Don’t take on such a difficult task on your own. Popcorn removal should be done by a professional! Schedule a free consultation with your local popcorn removal company today!
