Typical cost in Eagan
Sprayed acoustic texture, the bumpy white ceiling finish, is on MDH’s list of possible asbestos sources. If yours tests positive, plastic goes up, the texture gets wetted and it comes off in bags.
We take ceiling jobs across Eagan, from split-levels to townhomes, and in Inver Grove Heights and West St. Paul too.
July 1, 2021 ended the ceiling exemption for one- to four-unit homes in Minnesota. Since then, taking down more than 6 square feet of positive, friable texture has been licensed work. When it covers a whole level, that entire floor is closed off and kept under HEPA negative air.
A coat of paint slows wetting and old leak stains can mean loose patches, so we look for both before pricing. Older ceiling tiles, also on MDH’s list, come down whole where possible.
You don’t have to strip a ceiling just because it is textured. Intact texture that nobody disturbs can stay where it is, but have it tested before you cut in a new light or sand a patch.
A ceiling job goes faster when the room is empty before we arrive, so a little work on your side the week before saves time on the day.
Clear out furniture, rugs and wall hangings, and we handle fixtures and smoke alarms.
The sealed room stays off limits to everyone in the household until its clearance air samples pass, so plan where the furniture and the family will go.
Let us know who comes in after us, a drywaller to skim the ceiling or a painter to finish it, so we can leave the room ready for them.
If nobody has sampled the ceiling yet, begin with asbestos testing, and our main page has the rest of what we do around Eagan.
