Professional Lead Removal Service for Phoenix Homes

★★★★★ Rated Based On 85+ Reviews

Lead paint didn’t disappear when it was banned for homes in 1978. It’s still there in plenty of older Phoenix properties, hiding under newer coats until someone sands, scrapes, or starts a renovation and sends lead dust into the air. That dust is the real hazard, especially for young kids and pregnant women. Our IICRC-certified crew at Arizona Restoration Contractors removes lead safely, contains the mess, and cleans up thoroughly so your family isn’t left breathing what we disturb.

When You Need Lead Removal

Lead becomes a problem in a few predictable situations, most involving older paint getting disturbed:

Renovating a pre-1978 home, where sanding or demolition kicks lead paint into dust
Peeling, chipping, or flaking paint that kids can touch or ingest
Friction surfaces like old windows and doors that grind paint into fine particles every time they open
Water or fire damage that tears into older painted surfaces and exposes what’s underneath
Contaminated soil or household dust near an older home’s exterior

Once the lead is gone, we can handle the reconstruction after abatement work, so you’re not juggling two contractors to finish the job.

The Hidden Danger of Lead Paint

Lead is a serious health hazard, and there’s no level of exposure considered safe, especially for children. In young kids, it can affect brain development, learning, and behavior in ways that don’t show up until later. The tricky part is that lead paint can look perfectly fine while quietly shedding invisible dust every time a window slides or a door swings shut. Families often have no idea it’s there until a child’s blood test raises the question.

Because of those risks, the EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting rule sets specific practices for disturbing lead paint in older homes, from containment to cleanup verification. Our certified crews use wet methods, sealed containment, and HEPA cleanup to keep lead dust from spreading, and we confirm the results rather than assume them. If moisture has you worried about more than paint, we also offer professional mold inspection services.

How We Handle Lead Removal

Step 1: Inspection and testing. We identify where the lead is and confirm it through testing, so the plan targets the real problem, not a guess.

Step 2: Containment and protection. We seal off the work area, cover surfaces, and shut down HVAC pathways so dust stays put instead of circulating through the home.

Step 3: Safe removal or encapsulation. Using wet methods and careful handling, we remove the lead paint or encapsulate it to lock it in place.

Step 4: HEPA cleanup. We clean the area with HEPA vacuums and detailed wipe-downs, since the fine dust is what makes lead dangerous.

Step 5: Clearance verification. We confirm the space is clean before anyone moves back in, and document the results for your records.

We serve homes and businesses across Phoenix, Tempe, Scottsdale, Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, and the surrounding Phoenix metro communities.

FAQ

Your Lead Removal Questions, Answered

How do I know if my home has lead paint?

Homes built before 1978 are the most likely to have it, often under newer paint. Testing is the only way to know for sure, and it's worth doing before any sanding, scraping, or demolition.

Is lead paint dangerous if it isn't peeling?

Intact paint that's in good shape is lower risk, but "intact" doesn't mean "safe forever." Friction points like windows and doors quietly create dust, and any renovation can release it, which is why disturbing lead paint is where the real danger lies.

Do I need to leave during lead removal?

Often yes, at least for the active work and cleanup, especially in a home with children. We contain the area to limit exposure and let you know what to expect based on the size and location of the job.

Will insurance help with lead removal?

Sometimes. When lead removal is connected to a covered event, coverage is more likely, though maintenance-related lead issues usually aren't included. We document the circumstances and work with your insurer to figure out what applies.

How do you make sure the lead is really gone?

We finish with a clearance check that confirms the space is clean before it's reoccupied, backed by HEPA cleanup and containment throughout. You get documentation so there's no guesswork.
