Lead Paint Abatement
in Boston, Massachusetts

Licensed Lead Paint Removal in Boston

Boston has one of the oldest housing stocks in the United States. Neighborhoods including Dorchester, Roxbury, Mattapan, Jamaica Plain, East Boston, South Boston, Hyde Park, and Roslindale contain tens of thousands of triple-deckers, brownstones, and multi-family homes built well before 1978, the vast majority of which contain lead-based paint.

Under Massachusetts law (105 CMR 460), property owners who rent to families with children under six are required to delead their properties. Failure to comply can result in fines, liability for lead poisoning, and difficulty selling or refinancing the property.
