Acoutsic Ceiling Removal

I blogged about this on my other blog and wanted to link it here.

It comes up all the time with my clients and friends. It looks terrible in the older homes and everyone would like an easy way to deal with a potentially serious hazardous clean up if the ceiling material contains asbestos.

We had some great guys come and put up a short scaffold and they plastered over it.

The desire to omit any danger of aesbestos was big for me/

Lynne,

Thanks for the comment, the stuff sucks! You still need to be careful if you need to repair the ceiling in the future, it's still under there.

I've never heard of plastering over it, I would think that the weight of the plaster would start to pull it off of the drywall eventually... Great post especially for our area where SO many older homes still have these ceilings.
