It is a regulated process required when paint is disturbed in homes or buildings built before 1978, when lead-based paint was banned for residential use. In Newark, much of the housing stock dates from the early to mid-20th century, meaning lead paint hazards are common in older homes, apartments, and commercial spaces. Lead-safe painting services involve containing dust, using HEPA-filtered vacuums and negative air machines, sealing work areas with plastic sheeting, and following strict work practices to prevent lead-contaminated dust from spreading during surface preparation, scraping, or painting. The goal is to stabilize the paint—not necessarily remove it entirely—while preventing exposure to occupants, especially children and pregnant women, who are most vulnerable to lead poisoning. This is not a DIY task; it requires trained, EPA-certified renovators who understand the Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) rule. For Newark property owners, lead-safe painting is a practical necessity. Many older row houses, three-family flats, and pre-war apartment buildings have layers of paint that may contain lead. Simply scraping or sanding without containment can release toxic dust that settles on floors, windowsills, and soil. A lead-safe painting process begins with a visual assessment and, if needed, a dust wipe or XRF test to confirm the presence of lead. The work area is then fully contained with heavy-duty plastic and tape. Surfaces are hand-scraped or chemically stripped where necessary, sanding is done only with HEPA-equipped tools, and all debris is double-bagged and disposed of properly. After painting, a thorough cleaning with a HEPA vacuum and wet-wiping is performed, followed by a final visual inspection and optional clearance dust test. This approach ensures that the property is left safe for reoccupancy and that the paint job is durable and compliant with federal and local regulations. ## Areas We Cover in Newark Our lead-safe painting services are available throughout Newark, including neighborhoods such as East Ferry, Hutton Park, Teachers Village, and University Heights.
