Popcorn ceiling removal in Maitland

Maitland takes its name from Fort Maitland, built on Lake Maitland in 1838, and incorporated as a town in 1885. It grew most in the 1950s and 1960s, from 889 residents in 1950 to 7,157 in 1970, so much of its housing predates the late-1970s asbestos bans. Around Lake Lily and Lake Catherine, century-old homes are still lived in.

Remodeled houses: test each part

Many older houses have been added onto over the years, so one house can have original texture in some rooms and newer texture in an addition or a remodeled kitchen. A single sample doesn't speak for the whole house. If the ceilings were done at different times, have each area sampled before any of it is scraped. See asbestos testing.

Old paint

In a house built before 1978, paint on the ceiling may contain lead. Contractors who disturb more than six square feet of lead paint in a pre-1978 home must be EPA Lead-Safe Certified. Ask about it when you request quotes.
