Our Trusted Lead Abatement Services

We offer comprehensive lead abatement services designed to eliminate the dangers posed by lead in your commercial or industrial property. Lead abatement involves the identification, removal, and proper disposal of lead-based hazards. This process includes stripping lead-based paint, replacing lead pipes, cleaning contaminated soil, and more. 

Common Sources of Toxic Lead

Lead can be found in various parts of older buildings and infrastructure. It is essential to identify and address these sources to ensure a safe environment. Here are some common sources of lead that need to be removed:

Lead-Based Paint

Lead-based paint poses a significant health hazard, especially in homes built before the 1978 ban on its use in residential properties. When lead-based paint deteriorates, it can create toxic dust and paint chips that can be ingested or inhaled

Lead Pipes

Lead was widely used in plumbing systems until the dangers of lead poisoning became well known, and many older properties still have lead pipes or lead solder in their plumbing. When water flows through these pipes, it can pick up lead particles, leading to contaminated drinking water.

Dust & Particles

Dust is a pervasive and often overlooked source of lead exposure, particularly in older homes and buildings with lead-based paint. As the paint deteriorates, it can release tiny lead particles into the air, which then settle as dust on surfaces throughout the home. This dust can be easily ingested or inhaled, posing serious health risks

Construction Materials

Older construction materials can also be a source of lead exposure, particularly roofing materials, window frames, and flashing may contain lead, which can deteriorate over time and release lead particles into the environment.

Lead-Contaminated Soil

Lead-contaminated soil is another common source of lead exposure, particularly in urban areas and older properties. Soil can become contaminated with lead from industrial pollution, leaded gasoline, or a build-up of lead from previous manufacturing processes or equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lead abatement?
Lead abatement is the process of permanently eliminating lead-based hazards from a property to prevent lead exposure. This involves identifying and removing lead-based paint, lead pipes, contaminated soil, and other lead sources. Lead abatement can also include encapsulation, where a special coating is used to seal lead-based materials, preventing the release of lead particles. The goal of lead abatement is to create a safe environment by reducing or eliminating the risk of lead poisoning.
