Lead Removal

Experts in Professional Lead Removal

Lead, an incredibly toxic heavy metal, was used widely in the manufacturing of paints. The presence of lead in the environment is still a serious danger in both residential and commercial properties that were constructed before 1978.

The health risks of being exposed to lead-based paint are very serious and shouldn’t be taken lightly, especially when it comes to young children. When lead is absorbed into the body, it can cause damage to the brain and vital organs, such as the nerves and kidneys. Lead gets into the body either through the consumption of lead-based paint chips, playing in lead contaminated soil, or putting lead contaminated objects into one’s mouth. Due to these risks HUD, OSHA, and USEPA have established very strict requirements that need to be adhered to in order to keep both the lead removal specialists, and those who live or work in the building safe once the lead has been safely removed.

Most common sources of lead exposure:

  • Peeling or Non-Peeling, Chipping, or Cracking Lead Based Paint and Lead Dust
  • Windows, Window Sills & Window Frames
  • Wood trim, Cabinets, Porches/Decks, Stairs, Railings, and Fire Escapes
  • Soil that has been contaminated
