Professional Lead Paint Removal for Commercial Properties

Step 1: Assess the situation: The first step is to assess and inspect the lead paint. Our team will look at the type of paint, the age of the paint, the condition of the paint, and the area that needs to be painted.

Step 2: Prepare the area: The next step is to prepare the area for lead paint removal. This includes removing all furniture and other items from the area and covering the floor with a tarp or other protective material.

Step 3: Lead Removal: Once lead paint has been assessed and prepared, the next step is to remove it. The most common methods for removing lead paint include scraping, Industrial Vacuuming, high-pressure Water Jetting, and using a chemical stripper.

Step 4: Containment: The fourth step is to create a containment area. This is done by sealing off the area with plastic sheeting and setting up negative air pressure to prevent lead dust from spreading.

There are a few different containment methods that are used:

– Misting: A fine mist is sprayed over the work area to keep the lead dust down

– Ventilation: Exhaust fans are set up to ventilate the area and remove any fumes

– Enclosing: A temporary seal is created around the work area to prevent the spread of lead dust

Step 5: Proper Clean Up: After the lead paint has been removed, all the removal equipment and materials need to be cleaned and disposed of properly. This includes all the tools used during the removal process, such as sanders, scrapers, putty knives, and brushes. Our team will also need to clean the floors and walls where the paint was removed. To avoid spreading any lead dust, they will need to use a wet vacuum or a mop and bucket to clean up the mess.
