We understand that lead-based paint can be a hazard to occupants and construction workers, so we take great care in every step of the removal process.
Lead Assessment
Our first step is to evaluate the physical condition of the building and determine the extent of the lead paint contamination. Our professional lead removal experts examine all surfaces and layers to identify lead appearance in residential, commercial and industrial sites. We take time and give a close look to evaluate paint coating to determine lead-based paint existence and create tailored plans according to each property owner's individual needs. Our trusted lead abatement contractors complete the assessment process initially with test kits and, if needed, with the help of accredited laboratories listed by WorkSafe in the town.

Next, based on the assessment, our lead removal experts choose the most effective method for removing lead abatement. With the best knowledgeable and accredited employee, we always use the safest removal methods, including scraping, chemical strippers, wet hand sanding, low-temperature heat process and dry power sanding with HEPA vacuum attachment sanding to strip lead paint. Before starting lead removal, we set up the site properly to avoid all kind of risk and hazards. Our highly trained professionals usually start working with exterior and end with the interior. With double plastic sheets, we wrap up the total area where needed; thus, lead dust can't get exposed. A thorough clean-up and disposal of lead-contaminated waste is part of Priority One Coatings service. Our lead-base paint removal contractors take every necessary safety precaution to ensure that both our workers and the occupants of the building are protected from exposure through the whole lead removal process.

Frequently Asked Question
Different Sydney residents ask us various questions about lead paint removal solutions at different times. So, we have listed them and written them here in the frequently asked question section to provide you with the required knowledge about our lead-based paint removal service.
How is lead paint different from other paint?
Lead paint is an outdated product that contains toxic chemicals in large amounts, which threatens health. Whereas all paints available these days contains no lead.
How do I know if there’s lead-based paint?
The easiest way to know is to check when your building was last painted. If it was before or during the 1970s, you have a sure chance of having lead paint in your house. You can test it using a test kit available to determine the presence of lead-based paint. If the swab gives a negative result, but the age of the house indicates that it is possible to use lead paint, you can have it tasted by professionals.
If I find lead paint in my building, am I in danger?
As most lead paint is old these days, there is a chance to be crumbling, peeling and chalking away. If you find paint in these conditions, it’s a sign of danger. If you find lead paint on your premises, it is good to contact priority one coatings to remove it as soon as possible.
Can I remove lead-based paint on my own?
No, you can’t remove lead-based paint on your own. Only professionals can do it because it is a niche process, and there is a health risk too.
What are the inappropriate removing methods?
Lead paint should not be removed in methods that create fumes or dust, such as dry sanding, dry scraping, sandblasting, heating or burning. At priority one coating, we use none of these techniques in lead paint removal.
What are some appropriate removal methods?
The most frequently practiced lead paint removal methods include encapsulation-, which is a paint-like protective coating, enclosure, replacement etc. After the lead test, the professionals can suggest to you the most effective lead paint stripping and removing options for your wall.
Is a clearance inspection necessary for lead paint removal?
Clearance inspection is necessary for lead paint removal because this process risks releasing hazardous chemicals in the dust. In this case, Priority One Coatings can be your best partner. We always clean the premises very carefully after work, and clearance inspection is a part of our work.
Is it illegal if I find lead paint and do nothing about it?
Yes, there is a potential legal and health risk associated with the presence of lead in materials. The Work Health Safety Act 2011 considers any material with more than 1% lead content hazardous, and employers are responsible for ensuring a safe working environment. Even in a domestic setting, failing to address lead exposure could lead to legal issues, especially if you are a landlord.
