Cost Of Asbestos Ceiling Removal

asbestos testing?
I have a home built in 1978 and I want to get rid of the popcorn ceiling. My realtor suggested I get it tested for asbestos prior to removal, but…if I get it tested and it is positive, it could cost several thousand dollars to remove it. Should I test for it?
Do not get it tested. Remove it yourself. Your chances of getting cancer from removing your ceiling are about equal to getting hit by a meteor. The cancer rate among asbestos miners is about 5% and they worked 8 hours a day for decades with asbestos.
