    Why Acoustic Ceiling Removal Matters for Your Health and Home

    Acoustic ceilings, especially those installed before the 1980s, may contain asbestos, a hazardous material that becomes dangerous when disturbed. Even if your ceilings are asbestos-free, their rough texture traps dust, pollen, and mold spores, making them a constant source of indoor air pollution. Acoustic ceiling disposal eliminates this risk, giving your family or employees a safer, more breathable environment.

    Aside from health concerns, acoustic ceilings also darken rooms by trapping shadows and making spaces feel smaller. After acoustic ceiling disposal, ceilings appear higher and brighter, improving both comfort and aesthetics. Property owners often report improved lighting, better air quality, and a more spacious feel immediately after the procedure.

    Our Acoustic Ceiling Removal Process

    Our process begins with a thorough assessment to determine the composition of your ceiling. If asbestos is suspected, we recommend certified testing. Once the ceiling type is confirmed, our acoustic ceiling disposal team takes all necessary safety precautions, including sealing the area, wearing protective gear, and using dust-control equipment to minimize airborne particles. The ceiling surface is carefully wetted to loosen the texture, allowing for safer removal.

    After the acoustic ceiling removal is complete, we repair any imperfections in the underlying drywall and prepare the surface for a smooth, modern finish. We also ensure full cleanup and responsible disposal, leaving your space spotless and ready for painting or further renovation.

    What Our Clients Say

    • Carol Rothenberg

      They did a great job on our two-story house with a lot of wood trim. Very professional, courteous, neat and friendly. Definitely recommend them.

    • Trish MacDonald – North PB

      As promised, we're working with Justin again to paint the exterior of our house. And couldn't be happier. :) Same nice, professional guy doing an exceptional job! It's hard to find good exterior painters in San Diego. Justin is everything you'd want in a contractor: timely, friendly, dependable, and affordable. And clean! We worked with him to paint the interior of our old home, plus the kitchen cabinets and recently had him clean the windows of our new home. We plan to use him again to paint the inside and exterior of our new home soon too. Highly recommend!

    • Sarah M. – West Clairemont Tecolote

      J. Brown made our old house absolutely beautiful! Timely, clean, easy to be around, took care of everything -- even the little things we didn't know we'd need done. What started as a power wash turned into a full exterior paint job and it looks amazing. Thank you so much Justin!!

    • Laura A. – Kate Sessions, CA

      Justin is great! He is professional, thorough, prompt and honest. I wish I met him before we had one of the big corporate companies paint the inside of our house. Justin painted the exterior and did a much better job. He did very thorough prep and knew what he was talking about while discussing paint options. He first power washed the house to remove all cobwebs, eggs (yes, we were egged several times), dirt, etc. He always cleaned up at the end of each day, and he stuck with the schedule and budget he gave us. I will definitely call him the next time we have a need, and would recommend him to anyone.
