Lead Paint Presence?
Lead paint was once applied to commercial buildings of all kinds across the United States. However, once lead was linked to a wide range of disorders and illnesses, it was banned by the federal government in 1978. However, because of its once widespread use, lead paint is still present in some older buildings. And lead paint – especially if it is chipping or dusting – can be extraordinarily dangerous to anyone inside those buildings.

How Common is Lead Paint?
If your commercial property was built before 1978, there’s an increased chance that it has lead-based paint. In 1978, the federal government banned consumer use of lead-based paint. However, lead-based paint may still be present in millions of buildings – under layers of newer paint. If your new paint is in good shape, the lead-based paint may not be a concern. However, deteriorating lead-based paint is a hazard that requires immediate and professional attention.

Lead Paint 101
Undisturbed, lead paint may not always be dangerous. However, it’s hazardous enough that it was banned for consumer use. And there’s a reason for that. Lead can make adults extremely sick and do irreversible damage to children and the unborn. Lead paint abatement also requires strict safety precautions, as well as disposal methods.

- Lead paint poisoning is still a thing
- Upkeep is key to reducing risk
- Common abatement methods
- Clean-up is also important
Lead paint can inflict serious harm Children affected by lead paint poisoning may suffer from lower intelligence, learning disabilities and behavioral issues. Adults who are exposed to lead paint can suffer from high blood pressure, headaches, dizziness, diminished motor skills, fatigue and memory loss. Lead paint only requires small levels of exposure to pose a threat to your health.

Lead paint only requires small levels of exposure to pose a threat to your health.
Lead paint poisoning is still a thing Because lead paint is often present underneath layers of newer/safe paint, it is not necessarily an immediate threat. However, recent research shows that new cases can be directly linked to renovations where the work environment was inadequately contained.

Upkeep is key to reducing risk To reduce sources of lead exposure in older commercial properties, it is critical to inspect and keep all painted surfaces in excellent shape. You should also clean any dust away with a wet cloth or paper towel. If you are considering any renovations, repair, or painting projects, be sure to ask your contractor about the possibility of encountering lead paint and what they will do to ensure yours and their safety.

Common abatement methods Called “enclosure,” encasing the lead paint in flexible wall covering, paneling or gypsum board is the simplest abatement method. Enclosure works best on large, flat surfaces that are not subject to friction.
Lead paint removal and replacement is the most thorough method of abatement and will completely remove the threat of lead from your property. However, it must be performed by professionals. This is because removal often causes lead paint particles to be temporarily released into the air. Professionals will take the right safety precautions (by wearing personal protective equipment, respirators, goggles, shoe covers, etc.) and not be poisoned by the temporary presence of airborne lead paint. They will also thoroughly clean the particles from any surfaces on which they land.

Clean-up is also important To ensure a safe environment following abatement, a professional will utilize a wide range of tools to remove any remaining lead paint particles, including a HEPA vacuum cleaner, plastic bags or sheet plastic, and duct tape. Once removed, lead paint must be sealed in a plastic bag that is shut with duct tape.
