AmeriForce Environmental INC provides residential lead abatement in Denver, CO for older homes, rentals, and remodel projects. If your home was built before 1978, lead-based paint may be present, and disturbing it can create hazardous dust. We help define scope, control dust spread, and document closeout.
Residential lead abatement is more than just repainting walls. It involves the controlled removal or stabilization of lead-based paint hazards in homes to prevent exposure to lead dust and chips, which can be especially harmful to children. Unlike regular home renovations, residential lead abatement uses lead-safe work practices, including dust containment and proper cleanup, to keep your family safe and your home compliant with safety regulations.

Lead-based paint was widely used in U.S. housing before it was banned for residential use in 1978. It becomes a hazard when paint deteriorates or gets disturbed during remodeling, especially on windows, doors, trim, and stairs where friction creates dust.
Pre-1978 wall and trim coatings may contain lead paint
Windows and doors create dust through rubbing and friction
Floors, stairs, and cabinets collect dust from daily wear
Renovations can release dust during sanding, cutting, or demolition
Exterior paint can contribute to soil contamination near foundations

Description: Lead is a neurotoxin. Health authorities warn that exposure can seriously harm children’s brain and nervous system and affect learning and behavior. Lead dust is often created by renovation, peeling paint, and friction surfaces like windows and doors.
Children are especially vulnerable to lead exposure impacts
Lead dust spreads easily during disturbed paint work
Friction surfaces generate recurring dust even without remodeling
Deteriorating paint produces chips and dust over time
