Lead-based Paint Removal

Lead

Lead is an element that occurs naturally in the Earth’s crust. It can be found in soil, pipes, water, manmade products, and paint manufactured prior to 1978. Household objects, such as crystal and pottery, may also contain lead. When lead enters the body, it can result in dangerous health problems for infants, children, and adults. As a toxic material, it must be handled properly. Our lead-based paint removal and lead paint removal service ensure safe and effective removal of lead from your home, school, childcare center, rental property, commercial building, and shooting ranges.

Lead-based Paint

The federal government banned the use of lead in paint in 1978; however, many homes and commercial properties still contain lead-based paint beneath layers of nonlead paint. Improper removal of these old paint layers can spread contamination and create additional hazards in the soil, flora, water, or adjacent structures.

Risk Removal professionals are trained in the safe, certified lead and asbestos removal. We adhere to all EPA, OSHA, and CDC rules and regulations to assess, contain, remove, and dispose of lead and asbestos materials from your home, school, commercial structure, or real estate property where they may be present.
