Locally-Based Lead Abatement From Denver, CO
Lead used to be added to paint to slow down its deterioration, improve durability and enhance the quality of the paint. Now, lead exposure and lead poisoning are known to cause irreversible damage to physical, mental and emotional health. In adults, lead exposure can cause reproductive health problems. In children, lead exposure leads to developmental delays and can damage the nervous system.
If your property was built prior to 1978, it may contain lead-based paint. The disturbance of lead-containing coatings is regulated by the EPA, Occupational Safety and Health Administration and many state plans. Calling professionals like our lead removal specialists is vital to avoid potential contamination and exposure.

Our Process
Our lead-based paint removal service will identify, contain and safely remove lead paint from your property. Each of our technicians are trained and certified in lead-safe work practices to ensure that removal work is performed properly.
1. Assessment
To begin our work, we will first conduct a visual inspection and test paint with lead test kits. In some scenarios, we may perform sampling for laboratory analysis.
2. Containment
Before we begin our removal process, our team will secure the work site to minimize the spread of lead dust and debris. This includes setting up containment barriers and other safety measures.
3. Lead-Based Paint Removal
Our lead abatement process is designed to be efficient, professional and compliant with industry best practices. Lead paint removal is conducted through approved methods that minimize the generation of lead dust. We won’t linger, either: MHES’s aim is to produce exceptional results for every lead abatement in a timely manner.
4. Decontamination
Once we have completed the process of lead abatement, we will thoroughly decontaminate the area to ensure all lead dust and particles have been taken care of.
5. Verification
Clearance testing is our final quality check to ensure that every trace of lead paint has been removed from your property.
