Comprehensive Assessment
Your site is thoroughly inspected, and samples from suspected materials can be taken for lab testing.
Abatement Plan
If tests reveal the need for abatement, we’ll create a detailed proposal to address your situation. We make sure you understand the details every step of the proposed abatement.
Lead Abatement Process
We clear work areas and create a containment zone with plastic sheeting to prevent lead dust from escaping. Our technicians employ wet scraping, sanding, and sponging to weigh down lead paint during removal. Encapsulation with a safe coating is an option in some cases.
Safe Lead Removal
Commercial-grade HEPA vacuums collect paint dust and debris, and all affected materials are removed according to official guidelines. We make any planned repairs and provide you with proof-of-abatement documents.
Our Approach
The Lead Abatement Process
01
Seal the Area
Affected areas are closed off with plastic sheeting across walls, ceiling, and floor to prevent lead dust from escaping the work area.
02
Cleaning & Removal
Our licensed technicians safely contain and remove all lead-containing material, and properly dispose of it according to guidelines. Safe coating applied if encapsulation is required.
03
Repair & Restoration
All sheeting and abatement equipment is removed. HEPA vacuums thoroughly clean surfaces and air of remaining dust. Planned repairs and material replacements are made.
