Lead-Safe Certified Painting Services (Bay Area)​

“Protect your home from hidden lead dust during painting—without sacrificing quality or cleanliness.”

​

If your home was built before 1978, there is a strong chance it contains lead-based paint.

When that paint is disturbed—even during normal prep like sanding or scraping—it can release microscopic dust that is harmful when inhaled or ingested.

​

Why This Matters 

EPA studies show that even small amounts of lead dust can pose serious health risks, especially for children and pregnant women.

Exposure has been linked to:

• Brain and nervous system damage

• Learning and behavioral issues in children

• High blood pressure and fatigue in adults

• Long-term, sometimes irreversible health effects
   

What makes this dangerous is that:
👉 Lead dust is often invisible
👉 Symptoms are not always obvious
👉 Exposure can happen without you realizing it
 

The Problem With Most Painting Contractors

Most painters:

• Do not use proper containment

• Dry sand without HEPA filtration

• Leave dust in your home

• Are not trained in lead-safe practices
   

That means during a “standard paint job,” your home can be filled with contaminated dust without proper controls.
