residential lead abatement

Residential lead abatement involves identifying and safely removing or controlling lead-based paint and related hazards in homes, primarily to protect residents—especially children—from health risks like brain damage and developmental issues. This process includes inspections, testing for lead, and applying approved methods such as encapsulation, enclosure, or complete removal of lead paint. Certified professionals conduct these activities following strict safety standards to prevent lead dust or debris from spreading during work. Abatement helps ensure the home environment is safer and reduces potential lead exposure, contributing to healthier living conditions.
