Do Parkwood Gardens homes have asbestos in popcorn ceilings?
Some Parkwood Gardens homes may have asbestos in their popcorn ceilings—it depends on when the home was built. Chrysotile asbestos was commonly mixed into ceiling texture through the 1970s and into the mid-1980s, so homes constructed before the mid-1980s carry a real risk and should be tested before any ceiling work begins. Newer builds are typically asbestos-free, but the only way to know for certain is lab testing.
- Ontario Regulation 278/05 requires testing before disturbing suspect ceiling material
- Removal itself isn't mandated by law, and the Ontario Building Code doesn't regulate popcorn ceilings
- We coordinate asbestos testing at cost: $300–$500, no markup
Once results are in, we handle removal and finishing: $4.50/sqft for unpainted ceilings, $6.50/sqft for latex-painted, and $7.50/sqft for oil-base painted—all-inclusive with skim coats, primer, and two coats of paint. A typical 3-bedroom Parkwood Gardens home runs $2,000–$4,500. Call (519) 729-7394 for a free quote. KW Popcorn Ceiling Removal · Guelph service area · Google Reviews
