What is Lead Abatement?

Lead abatement is the process used to encapsulate or completely remove lead paint. Typically, on restoration projects the goal is to eliminate lead-based paint hazards. Lead abatement reduces/eliminates potential lead-based poisoning incidents.

Phoenix Tech International procedures are generally undertaken in response to government or local government action to remove lead paints from historical buildings. We have individuals specifically trained for this task.

• Court Houses
• Historical Buildings
• Industrial Plants
• Metal Structures

We employ different methods depending on the situation, and customer requirements.

• Soda or glass blasting (with containment)
• Chemical stripping with water collection
• Enviro system

In the USA, lead abatement removal is regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We are certified in the removal of lead-based paint.

Lead abatement differentiates from renovation, repair, and painting alone. Typically performed at the discretion of the business or building owner, abatement is a precise control in removing lead hazards as its own process, as opposed to solely painting for aesthetic purposes.
