    Popcorn ceilings otherwise known as textured ceilings, cottage cheese ceilings or acoustic ceilings are basically ceilings with a spray on or paint on treatment which ends up looking like cottage cheese textures on your ceiling. It was very popular from the 1950’s to the 1980.
    Making a popcorn ceiling meant you did not need to patch any cracks, fill up any small holes, and sand the ceiling down in any way, why? because all it took was priming with some paint and spraying the coat on and calling it a day. Popcorn ceilings were cost effective, time efficient, and a solution to sell a home faster. But the period of time when popcorn ceilings were “in” from the 50s to 80s, was during a period when asbestos was a high-demand building material in the U.S. Why they used asbestos?
    its fibers provided strength without adding too much weight, insulation, and fire-resistant properties. It was only until 1978 under the Clean Air Act that the US banned it as it caused mesothelioma a type of lung cancer developed when inhaled. They later switched over to Styrofoam to create the same pattern and concept and made it safer this way. But that didn't mean existing supplies of popcorn ceiling material was all thrown out. Some of it was still used!
    Typically the ceiling will not endanger your health as long as it remains completely undisturbed or properly covered. Remember, Not all popcorn ceilings have asbestos. So If you end up finding any and want it removed its best to do this by contacting an asbestos abatement professional who will properly remove it as well as check for lead in the paint at the same time.

    This is one of those things everybody can downplay while they're young, but when they're 50 and they can't breathe they realize the truth.

    The video you used when you tell people to hire an asbestos abatement contractor is just some dude with NO PPE scraping ceiling off into a container. Definitively not safe.

    hi Dr, can you explain why N95 mask isn't capable of blocking asbestos? i thought N95 filter is capable of blocking particles above 0.3 micron and since asbestos fibres range anywhere from 0.7 micron to 90 microns...

      The seal on your face isn’t airtight, though the mask might be able to walk fibers. They can still get in through the gap, which is why it’s important to wear a respirator and to be clean shaven.

    I’m in an old condo/apartment from 1960s. I drilled up into my popcorn ceiling few years ago to install a curtain rod. About 1 inch up into it. Some white stuff fell onto me while I was drilling. So exposure of some sort. Should I be concerned ?

      You should be fine, it’s just the people who get exposed to it often.

    How likely or unlikely would a 1989 Mobil home double wide trailer have asbestos in the popcorn ceiling ?

    • @jakejake7162
      @jakejake7162 11 місяців тому

      1978 is when they stopped building with asbestos. But there’s a chance the original home owners used old materials if they ever had to fix anything. I bought a mobile home that’s from the 80’s but know the prior owners jerry rigged it together with whatever they had so there might be a room with bad tiles or contaminated drywall
