Rid your property of hazards with safe & thorough asbestos ceiling removal in Los Angeles CA
Many people don’t realize that those lumpy, bumpy textured acoustic ceilings found in many homes across the country may contain asbestos. In the past, these types of popcorn ceilings or cottage cheese ceilings were prized for their ability to dampen sound, conceal ceiling imperfections, and even inhibit the spread of fire due to the presence of asbestos. Now that we know asbestos is hazardous to human health, asbestos ceiling removal in Los Angeles CA is one of the top three most common asbestos removal projects done by homeowners.
How to Tell If You Need Popcorn Ceiling Removal in Los Angeles CA
In order to determine if you need popcorn ceiling removal, you’ll need to consider the following three points:
Is it really asbestos?
If your popcorn ceilings contain dangerous amounts of asbestos fibers built into the material used to create the texture, professional asbestos testing is the best way to confirm it and determine if cottage cheese ceiling removal is necessary.
Is the ceiling damaged?
In general, your ceiling is not posing an active risk to your health as long as it is intact. It’s only when the material becomes damaged and begins releasing asbestos fibers that you must be concerned. Because these fibers will be drifting down from the ceiling, they can easily travel on air currents and land throughout your home, making quick acoustic ceiling removal vital.
Is it likely to become damaged?
Even if your ceiling is not currently damaged, you may wish to invest in asbestos ceiling removal in Los Angeles CA anyway in order to prevent future problems related to accidental or deliberate damage during children’s play or a renovation.
Why Hire a Professional for Asbestos Ceiling Removal in Los Angeles CA

Instead, we must focus even more closely on other safety protocols designed to make your acoustic ceiling removal a success, including a tightly sealed work zone, a state of the art ventilation and filtration system for the work zone, and a designated decontamination area for all workers and bagged waste leaving the work zone.
Authorized Disposal
Asbestos must be handled carefully even after it leaves your property. At AQHI Inc., we provide authorized transport and disposal services in accordance with state and federal law. Because we always include disposal expenses in our bids, you won’t be stuck with pile of waste in your yard when you get asbestos ceiling removal in Los Angeles CA from us.
