Lead Paint Abatement
in Schenectady, New York

EPA Certified Lead Paint Removal in Schenectady

Schenectady has one of the oldest and most concentrated stocks of pre-1978 housing in upstate New York. The Stockade District, Hamilton Hill, Mont Pleasant, Bellevue, Central State Street, and the Vale neighborhoods contain thousands of older homes and multi-family buildings with lead-based paint on windows, doors, trim, and interior surfaces.

New York State 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 without a separate state license. Schenectady also operates its own Lead Program, which provides funding for lead hazard reduction in qualifying properties. AAA Abatement brings experienced crews and consistent first-attempt clearance results at the strict 5 µg/ft² EPA standard.
