Lead paint remediation (older homes, pre-1980 — regulated) in Trenton
Many homes in Trenton were built before 1980, when lead-based paints were commonly used on interiors and exteriors. If your property dates from that era, lead paint remediation is a regulated process that goes far beyond ordinary scraping or repainting. The work involves careful containment, removal, and disposal of lead-contaminated materials to meet federal, state, and local safety standards. In Trenton, where older rowhouses, Victorians, and historic structures are common, this is not a DIY job — it requires trained professionals who follow strict protocols to protect your family, your neighbors, and the environment.
The process begins with a thorough inspection and testing to identify all surfaces with lead-based paint. Our team then sets up physical barriers and negative air pressure systems to prevent dust from spreading to other parts of the home or outdoors. Using HEPA-filtered vacuums, wet sanding, and chemical strippers (never open-flame torches or dry sanding), we remove or encapsulate the lead paint. All debris is double-bagged and disposed of according to New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection regulations. After remediation, a clearance test by an independent third-party ensures that lead dust levels are below the EPA’s hazard threshold. This matters especially in Trenton, where many pre-1980 homes are near schools, parks, and densely populated blocks — uncontrolled lead dust can harm children and pets, and improper disposal can contaminate soil and stormwater. Compliance with the EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule is mandatory, and we follow it to the letter.
