Do I have to worry about a new popcorn ceiling having asbestos?

• <div><p>No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos.

How do you identify asbestos tiles?

• <div><p>If you can locate building records, you may be able simply to see what type of tiles (or bonding agent) was used. Any flooring made between 1950 and 1989 more than likely contains asbestos. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-tell-if-you-have-asbestos-floor-tile.htm">Asbestos tiles</a> can also be slightly thicker than other tiles and often measure 9” x 9”, 12” x 12”, and 18” x 18. Black mastic was a commonly used adhesive that contains asbestos.</p></div>
