Charlotte Lead Paint Abatement Company Sees Lead Removal Projects Rise

Charlotte lead paint abatement company Get The Lead Out. Get The Lead Out® is seeing an upward trend in 2012 on Charlotte area lead paint abatement (removal) projects on older homes that are undergoing renovation and remodeling.

“We just completed a very interesting lead paint abatement project with an older home in neighboring Oxford, NC,” says Kathryn Hubicki, president with Get The Lead Out®.  “One of the most important aspects of any lead paint abatement project is the testing that we do after the lead paint has been removed.”

Get The Lead Out® performs a lead paint “wipe” test to uncover any residual lead dust.  “Our lead paint wipe test is looking for any remaining lead that could possibly measure into any dangerous levels of presence,” added Hubicki.

For this specific home and lead paint abatement project in Oxford, NC, the resulting lead paint wipe test indicated that there were no hazardous levels of lead paint dust remaining in the home, so the remodeling contractor was provided with a letter of clearance from Get The Lead Out® indicating the negative presence of lead paint.Charlotte lead paint inspections and abatement company Get The Lead Out.

“Our qualified staff at Get The Lead Out® can help all homeowners determine if you have asbestos-containing materials, assess the risk, select the most appropriate method of managing the problem and supervise the abatement operation, whether it is removal or encapsulation” said Hubicki.

No lead paint inspection or lead paint abatement project is too small or too large for Get The Lead Out®.  “We’re large enough to serve you, and we’re small enough to care,” says Hubicki.  Call Get The Lead Out® in Charlotte at 704-376-3594 or email Kathryn Hubicki at koh@gettheleadout.biz to learn more about lead paint inspections and lead paint abatement.
