Why you need an Acoustic Ceiling Removal in North Scottsdale
Not only do popcorn ceilings tend to shed and leave bits of material everywhere, but they also tend to attract dust! Its hard to clean popcorn ceilings without removing the looser portions of it, leading to constant vacuuming and other concerns. This is especially problematic if you have a ceiling fan or high ceiling, both of which can make popcorn ceiling shedding far more problematic.
Another important issue is the age of your building. Homes built prior to 1985 will require proof of asbestos testing with a negative result to perform removal. Testing can be completed by the property owner or by CertaPro Painters of North Scottsdale. Please contact our office at 480-374-1762 for additional information.
This is a company you can trust. I called and left a message and I received a phone call right back. One of the owners (Michael) set-up a meeting time and prepared an estimate very quickly. Once we agreed on the price, I then worked on the details with the second owner (John). Bother owners were very responsive and informative. The crew they sent to our house (Luis, Jesus, Luis and Alicia) were GREAT. Came right on-time. Worked VERY hard and did a wonderful job. I would recommend CertaPro of North Scottsdale and this particular crew very much. Honest, fair pricing and hard working.

Why Hire CertaPro Painters® To Remove My Popcorn Ceiling?
Popcorn ceiling removal is an involved and messy process, requiring special tools for scraping, sanding, and vacuuming the dust that accumulates on the ground.
It can be time-consuming, depending on the height and square footage of the ceiling, as well as on how intricate the popcorn pattern is. If popcorn ceiling removal services are required in a furnished room, all the furnishings will have to be removed or protected, making the process even more labor intensive.
This is a tricky project that can go wrong very quickly in inexperienced hands. There are various benefits to relying on popcorn ceiling removal companies instead of tackling the work yourself. The delicate nature of the project often results in novice mistakes that are difficult and costly to fix. A few common mistakes include creating small holes and marks on the ceiling or causing water damage to any electrical boxes or outlets that aren’t properly protected. It is also a particularly messy job that can be a cleanup nightmare if the room hasn’t been prepared correctly.
