Lead Abatement

Lead was formerly used as an additive in paints and many other materials of construction. Back then, the harmful impacts of exposure to lead were not considered. But today, lead is a recognized toxin and the effects of lead absorption in the bloodstream are considered a health hazard. If you stay in a property constructed before the use of lead was stopped, there are chances that lead is present on your interior surfaces, under new layers of paint. Detecting and treating the lead can help eliminate health hazards. Lead abatement is required if there is exposure to any occupants of a lead-contaminated building as per the Ontario Ministry of Labour as well as the Occupational Health and Safety Act.

The procedure of lead abatement:

If you suspect lead, professional lead abatement is the perfect solution for you. First, it is important to ascertain the presence of lead by opting for the services of qualified professionals. By making proper assessments, experts can tell you the level of lead present in your home or office, and the extent of the harm it poses. 

If lead is present, then professionals can help you achieve safety through one of the following ways:

• By covering up the surfaces using alternative materials
• By using bonding components to prevent chipping or flaking of lead-infused paints
• By replacing doors and windows if the paint cannot be removed with safety
• By removing lead through safety-approved removal techniques like wet hand sanding or wet hand scraping
