## Local context
Homes built in the Seymour area before the mid-1980s may have popcorn ceilings that contain asbestos. We require a lab test on these before any removal.

## FAQ
### Does popcorn ceiling contain asbestos?
It can if it was applied before the mid-1980s. Testing is inexpensive and quick; we won’t disturb untested older texture.

### Is the process messy?
It is, which is why we seal off the room with plastic and protect floors. We clean up completely when finished.
