"The communications with the company were prompt and easy.  They showed up a few minutes before 7:00 am which was great.  This meant they were all ready to go at 7.  We had them remove 4 bush stumps from our backyard which they did quickly.  We had them removes some old bushes on the side of the house and they even got rid of the weeds that were in that area.  Lastly, we asked them to do a fall clean up.  They gathered the leaves and put them along the curb for clean up the next day.  They went through our landscaping to get rid of the weeds and trim down bushes for the winter.  They were nice, polite and professional.  They even explained to my husband what bushes they were trimming and which ones they were not because it was too early in the season to prep them for winter.  We are very happy with their work.

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

If lead is detected in a property, steps should include arranging for professional removal or containment, notifying all occupants, and implementing interim safety measures to reduce exposure.

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

By using PPE, sealing work areas, and following containment procedures.

The safest way to remove lead-based paint is by letting a professional take over. For most people, lead paint removal costs an average of $3,400. You should never attempt to dry sand old lead-based paint surfaces by hand. Most professionals use a paint stripper to do the job followed by wet scraping, but if you don’t want to remove lead paint, another option is to paint over it. Only consider this option if the old lead paint finish isn’t flaking or cracked.
