Thinking of flattening that bumpy ceiling? Popcorn texture is on MDH’s list of materials that may contain asbestos, so a sample is sent to the lab before any scraping. A clean result means your painter or drywaller can go ahead. A positive one means we wrap the room in plastic and keep the texture damp from start to finish, scraping it straight into bags on the spot. You are left with a clean ceiling for drywall, a skim coat or new texture.

No exemption since July 2021 for ceilings in buildings of up to four units.

How we handle ceilings

Sealing the room

Plastic on floors and walls, taped vents and a HEPA negative air machine.

Painted or water-stained texture

Paint and old leaks change how texture takes water, so we check first.

Ceiling tiles

MDH lists these too. Positive tiles come down whole where possible.

Leaving texture in place

Intact, untouched texture can stay. Test before new lights, vents or sanding.

Before ceiling day

Here is what helps on your side.

Empty the room

Take out furniture, rugs and curtains. We handle fixtures and smoke alarms.

Plan around the closed room

It stays sealed until clearance air samples pass.

Tell us the finish

Say what comes next, and we prepare the surface for it.
