Hi,
I just had my ceiling tested for asbestos and it has 2 percent chrysotile asbestos. I've talked to neighbors and they've just wet down the ceiling and scraped it off which I think is dangerous. But it costs too much to have it professionally removed - especially here in northern CA.
I have a crack in the ceiling from one wall to the other due to earthquakes we have in the bay area. I thought of just spray painting it over to avoid asbestos fibers being released into the air. Has anyone painted over it and are you happy with the painted ceiling?
I'm unemployed so paying thousands of dollars for removal is not what I want to do right now.
Thanks,
Barb
