Lead hazards require immediate attention when they pose immediate health risks to occupants. Our emergency lead abatement services provide rapid response to contain and eliminate urgent lead contamination situations throughout Massachusetts.

When You Need Emergency Lead Services

Child Poisoning Cases

If a child in your home has elevated blood lead levels, immediate abatement may be required to prevent further exposure.

Large areas of chipping, peeling, or chalking lead paint create immediate ingestion and inhalation hazards.

Renovation Accidents

Improper renovation of lead-painted surfaces can contaminate entire homes with lead dust.

Damage to painted surfaces can release lead particles and create widespread contamination.
