Lead Paint Removal
Your Lead Paint Removal Expert in Toowoomba
Older paint coatings may contain lead. Before preparing or repainting an older Toowoomba property, discuss the age of the building and any peeling or disturbed paint with a suitably experienced professional.
What are the dangers of lead in house paints?
Lead-containing paint can create harmful dust and flakes when it deteriorates or is disturbed during renovation. Do not assume a small amount of exposure is harmless. Seek health advice if you are concerned about possible exposure.
How to avoid lead exposure?
Lead-based paint cannot be identified by appearance alone. Testing and a site-specific assessment help determine an appropriate approach before removal or repainting. Avoid disturbing suspected lead paint while arranging advice.
Hiring a lead paint removal specialist
Removal is not always necessary when an existing coating is sound. The condition of the paint, planned renovation and potential exposure should guide the assessment. See WorkSafe Queensland guidance on working with lead-based paint.
