Lead Paint Abatement
in Albany, New York

EPA Certified Lead Paint Removal in Albany

Albany, New York's capital, has one of the highest percentages of pre-1978 housing in the state. The Arbor Hill, West Hill, South End, Pine Hills, Center Square, and Delaware Avenue neighborhoods contain dense concentrations of older row houses, brownstones, and multi-family buildings that are likely to contain lead-based paint on windows, doors, trim, and walls.

Albany has been a focus of lead hazard reduction efforts due to elevated rates of childhood lead exposure in several neighborhoods. New York is an EPA-administered state for lead programs, meaning AAA Abatement's EPA certifications provide full authority to perform lead abatement work throughout the state. We bring experienced crews and consistent first-attempt clearance results at the strict 5 µg/ft² EPA standard.
