Lead Removal

EETI provides lead removal services for commercial property owners and property management companies throughout Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.

Lead is a natural metal that was used to make many everyday items, such as household paint, painted toys, automotive gasoline and water pipes, prior to its ban by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1978. Lead exposure was found to cause many serious physical illnesses in children and adults, and because of this homes built prior to 1978 should be tested for the presence of lead in paint and surrounding soil. When lead testing yields a positive result in a commercial building, it is critical to hire an EPA-Lead Safe certified firm, such as Economic Enviro Techs Inc., to perform the lead abatement in order to guarantee the removal of all lead hazards.

Lead-Paint Removal

Lead pigments were used to manufacture household paints and paints for toys because lead enabled the paint to last longer and adhere to surfaces better. Studies began to reveal that lead-based paints presented significant health risks for both children and adults when ingested or inhaled, including brain damage, behavioral problems and learning problems in children, and reproductive issues in adults. Kidney damage, nerve damage, seizures and even death were also shown to be a result of overexposure to lead. Because of these risks, the sale and use of lead paints were outlawed in the United States by the EPA in 1978.

When homeowners, property owners or property managers notice chipped, or cracked paint on older structures or are planning on performing renovations or repairs to pre-1978 buildings, it is important to contract with a lead abatement firm to test for the presence of lead and properly remove any lead-based paint hazards. The State of Massachusetts enforces EPA standards regarding lead paint removal, and Economic Enviro Techs Inc. is certified to remove lead-paint safely.
