If you are seeking professional lead paint abatement services in the Greater Atlanta area, Archer Restoration Services is the company you can trust to safely remove the hazardous material. As a Lead-Safe Certified contractor in the state of Georgia, Archer has been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to carefully and thoroughly inspect, evaluate, and remove lead paint.

So, why does lead paint removal require the attention of a certified professional? Many homes built prior to 1978 were painted inside and out with lead-based paints, and it was later discovered that the inhalation of paint dust or the ingestion of paint chips caused serious neurological problems, particularly in children under the age of six. Removal may be required if lead paint is cracking, chipping, or peeling, or if paint dust has accumulated over time or during a home remodeling project. Areas of the home that are subjected to high levels of wear and tear and are easily accessible to children can especially pose a problem. These areas include:

• Doors and door frames
• Stairways, railings, and banisters
• Windows and window sills
• Fences and porches

Many people choose to buy do-it-yourself tests to determine if lead paint is present in their homes, but these tests are often inaccurate. You should never take your family's health and well-being lightly; if you believe there's even a slight possibility of lead paint in your home in Sandy Springs, Lawrenceville, Norcross, or anywhere else in Metro Atlanta, contact the professional lead paint abatement contractors at Archer Restoration Services. We are proud to be one of Metro Atlanta's most experienced full-service restoration companies.
