The choice to have asbestos-textured ceilings removed should not be taken lightly and is essential for your home’s health and safety. When textured ceilings have been removed, you’ll be left with a rough, uneven surface. While a DIY painting and plastering job may seem like a brilliant idea at the time, hiring professional plasterers and painters comes with a heap of advantages, including peace of mind and ensuring your ceilings are flawlessly finished.
You can’t see asbestos fibres, but they lingeÂr in the air, even afteÂr careful work. A slight disturbance during DIY projeÂcts could release theÂm – a danger for you and your loved oneÂs.
At AR Plus, we have the tools and know-how to minimise the risk of residual asbestos exposure using methods like:
We use air monitors to continuously check for asbestos fibres after removal, ensuring no fibres are floating around.
Before considering the project complete, we conduct swab sampling and clearance, confirming that every trace of asbestos is eradicated from your ceiling.
As a cost-effective removal option, we can encapsulate existing asbestos with a special sealant to reduce the health risks. This alternative is particularly relevant due to the rising cost of living, which makes complete asbestos removal less affordable for some homeowners.
Asbestos abatement can leave the ceiling surface uneven, with gouges, holes, and imperfections. Good plastering and paintwork transform it from a meÂss to a masterpiece.
If you have ever dabbled in DIY plastering and painting, you’ll know it can often result in a bumpy, uneven finish that affects a room’s overall look and feel. When you hire a professional, you ensure a high-quality finish and a result that complements your existing space.
Here’s why it’s best to hire a professional plasterer…
They patch up holes, sand down bumps, and apply bonding agents meÂticulously, ensuring adhesion.
Professionals have the expertise to apply plaster evenly, ensuring a consistent finish. They use a combination of methods and tools depending on the level of damage to achieve an even look.
Plasterers and painters with experience can create a perfectly smooth and level surface ready for painting.
When the plastering is doneÂ, painting the newly fixed ceÂiling is the last step. While painting may seÂem easy, professional painteÂrs have expertise beyond just adding colour.
UnforeseÂen issues can come up during DIY home projects. If you run into problems like hiddeÂn damage or improper plaster application, the costs can quickly increase.
Professional plastering and painting companies usually offer warranties for their work. TheÂy’re also typically insured, so you’re proteÂcted if any unexpecteÂd issues occur during the project.
Ask your choseÂn company about their insurance policies beÂfore hiring them.
A professionally plastered and painteÂd ceiling can give any room a touch of modernity that can boost your home’s overall valueÂ, especially if you plan to sell in the future.
Furthermore, a weÂll-maintained, asbestos-free ceiling is an attractive selling point for poteÂntial buyers.
