Guide to Lead Abatement and Removal

Lead abatement and removal is a delicate but necessary process


Lead abatement and removal are often necessary in small projects, like refinishing an old chair, as well as larger remodeling jobs when older lead pipe or lead windows need to be removed. If it's a task you feel you can't or shouldn't handle on your own, a lead removal company can take care of it for you. It is worth having a professional handle big jobs--especially since improper lead abatement and disposal can lead to serious health problems.

Consider the following for lead abatement projects:

1. The scope of the lead removal

2. Cost of lead removal supplies, equipment or contracting

3. Approved disposal methods

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

A lead removal company could provide the best solution For small jobs, it may be that you can stabilize the lead and avoid lead removal products and services all together. Encapsulation, the process of trapping in lead dust by applying a coating to the surface of whatever it is that contains lead, is often the solution. If it's a bigger job, like removing lead-containing plumbing, your contractor may be able to do it or recommend a service that can do the job for you.

I recommend:  Encapsulation products are available through companies like ACE Coating Co., Inc. ThomasNet lists lead abatement and removal specialists by state and includes a brief description of services for each specialist.

Lead abatement supplies are the key to protection If you want to be positive that it's lead you need to remove, several companies offer lead testing kits, either online or through your local home improvement store. Lead removal contractors and individuals alike need personal protection and equipment. Head to toe coverage is best so factor in the cost of hair protection, goggles, gloves, boot covers and chemical suits. Larger lead abatement equipment like dust vacuums are usually used by lead removal contractors but there are companies online who provide quotes and information on equipment for those wanting to make the financial commitment.

I recommend:  Abotex Enterprises Limited sells lead testing kits. Review application-specific testing procedures. Curtain-Wall offers a full line of protective gear as well as small lead abatement equipment like vacuums for both individuals and professionals.

Proper disposal is just as important as proper lead removal There are approved landfills and containers recommended for lead disposal. Lead containing debris must be put into heavy-duty plastic bags while bigger items must be covered and transported in a vehicle. There are major health risks, especially for children, associated with lead exposure and improper lead disposal. Some forms of lead, including lead pipes, can be recycled for scrap metal. Your local health department will have a list of lead recyclers and landfills approved for disposing of lead.

I recommend:  Lakeshore Environmental Contractors, LLC outlines a plan for both lead abatement and lead disposal and includes a list of common lead-containing items. Health Guide USA provides contact information for local health departments throughout the country. Waste Management, one of the biggest solid waste removal companies in the U.S., features a dropdown menu to help you search for a lead-approved landfill or transfer station in your area.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide
  • One of the most common methods of lead exposure is the inhalation of lead dust. Always wear a mask when removing lead.
