Irmo grew up in the 1970s and 1980s, which puts much of its housing in the window where popcorn ceilings and some vinyl flooring could still contain asbestos. If you’re remodeling a home in the Irmo, Seven Oaks or Harbison area, testing the ceiling texture first is usually money well spent.
Irmo straddles Lexington and Richland counties, but SC DES rules are statewide, so the permitting process is the same on either side.
