Lead Abatement in Flemington, NJ
Homes built before 1978 often contain lead-based paint, which can pose serious health risks, especially for young children and pregnant women. Green Home Solutions uses EPA RRP-certified teams and proven, family-safe lead abatement methods to identify, contain, and eliminate lead hazards, helping create healthier indoor environments for families and property owners.
Why Lead Abatement Matters
-
Neurological and developmental delays can occur at blood-lead levels as low as 5 µg/dL. Children are especially vulnerable, and even low-level exposure can lead to learning difficulties, behavioral issues, and long-term health effects.
-
Many states now require disclosure of known lead hazards in real-estate transactions. Professional remediation not only ensures legal compliance—it also increases your home’s value and marketability.
-
Dust is the #1 source of lead exposure in U.S. homes. Everyday activities like opening old windows or minor renovations can release microscopic lead dust that lingers in carpets, air ducts, and surfaces—putting children and pets at risk.
Why Act Now on Lead Abatement?
Lead exposure isn’t just a risk—it’s a silent health threat that affects thousands of families in Flemington, NJ. Even small amounts of lead dust can pose serious dangers, especially to young children and pregnant women.
If your home was built before 1978, there’s a good chance lead-based paint is hiding beneath the surface, waiting to be disturbed during renovations, window replacements, or even daily wear and tear.

Lead Abatement FAQ
How do I know if my home has lead paint?
If your home was built before 1978, there’s a high likelihood it contains lead-based paint. The only way to be sure is through professional testing using XRF technology or certified lab sampling.
Can I remove lead paint myself?
DIY removal is strongly discouraged. Improper methods—like dry scraping or sanding—can release dangerous levels of lead dust. Only EPA RRP-certified professionals should perform lead abatement.
Is lead paint still dangerous if it’s covered up?
Encapsulation may work in some cases, but if the surface is peeling, cracked, or exposed during renovations, it becomes a hazard again. Professional assessment can help you decide what’s safest.
How long does lead abatement take?
Most projects can be completed in 1–3 days, depending on the size of the area and type of remediation required. We’ll give you a clear timeline during your initial assessment.
