SAFETY BEFORE SCRAPING
Do popcorn ceilings need
asbestos testing?
Some older ceiling textures may contain asbestos. You cannot confirm it by appearance alone, so questionable materials should be evaluated before anyone disturbs the ceiling.
Popcorn is for the movies—not your ceiling.

We do not guess with questionable ceiling material.
Bye-Bye Popcorn does not collect asbestos samples, perform asbestos inspections, or remove asbestos-containing material.
When testing is appropriate, the homeowner works directly with a qualified testing provider. With homeowner authorization, the report can also be shared with Precision Painters before work is scheduled.
If you are looking for a reputable company to perform testing, let us know. We can recommend local testing partners and help point you in the right direction before any ceiling texture is disturbed.
