Lead Paint Removal in San Francisco & the Bay Area
Containment and capture when the coating tests positive for lead.
Wet blasting is one of the safest ways to remove lead-based paint because the water keeps the lead particles out of the air. We add containment, collect the spent media and slurry, and coordinate disposal.
Common lead jobs: pre-1978 steel railings, fire escapes, water tanks, bridges and painted brick.
If you haven't tested yet, do that first — an XRF test or lab swab is inexpensive and determines the work plan.
