These Types of Ceilings – Why Do I Have Them in My House?

It was in the end of the ’50s that this feature began being used in new homes.

It became popular when building firms discovered they didn’t need to spend time and money prepping and painting a ceiling. They could simply spray it.

People doing redecorating discovered that it was a quick solution to cover irregular surfaces, stains, small holes or mistakes.

And homeowners in states like Illinois at first thought this method made their houses look modern.

A major problem with these initial products is they contained some asbestos.

They started to gradually go out of favor with some homeowners beginning in the late ’80s and moving on from there.

Houses constructed near Edgewater and Albany Park around this time often had acoustical ceilings applied in the bedrooms, hallways and living room.

Kitchens and bathrooms did not get them.

Why Homeowners Say They Don’t Like These Anymore

• “Spots are difficult to touch up”
• “It’s hard to patch them”
• “They get too dusty”
• “You will find little bits on the carpet or floor”
• “You can’t clean or dust them”

The Normal Procedure

The first thing that happens is the room is cleared of everything.

In order to catch all of the old texture that falls off, plastic sheeting will be taped up throughout the room.

A little water is carefully sprayed on the old ceiling.

The water swiftly softens the old texture as it gets absorbed.

As the old texture gets soft, it can be scraped off the drywall.

The removal process proceeds until all the original material has been taken off. It gets gathered up and carted off.

The bare surface is almost always somewhat rough.

It may need some work to cover up seams and make it all smooth.

And the project finishes with primer and paint.

Who Could You Call To Do This Project?

Many of the remove and replace projects done around this community are handled by people who mostly specialize in doing it.

And the remaining other projects are carried out by local drywall and painting contractors who work on many types of interior surface repairs.
