LEAD PAINT REMOVAL CONTRACTOR

It’s not just old paint—it’s a health risk.

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a good chance it contains lead paint—especially on trim, doors, windows, and siding. When disturbed, lead dust and chips pose serious health risks, particularly to children. We are a certified lead paint removal firm and licensed to remove lead hazards and restore your home to a clean and healthy state.

Why you need a lead paint removal contractor.

Even small amounts of lead dust can affect brain development in children and cause long-term health problems. That’s why federal and state regulations require lead-safe practices during restoration work on homes built before 1978.

Any time old paint is scraped, sanded, or cut, there’s a risk of releasing toxic lead dust. DIY solutions or non-certified lead paint removal contractors often miss the mark—putting families at risk and potentially violating state law.

We are an EPA-certified Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) contractor and an Oregon State Certified Lead Abatement Contractor. That means we follow the strictest containment, lead paint removal, and cleanup protocols.

I’m thrilled with Professional House Painters! They did a flawless job on our home’s exterior—it hadn’t been painted in 30+ years. They scraped, primed, pressure washed, and painted with serious attention to detail. All of my plants outside were protected, and the cleanup was spotless. Friendly, professional, and clearly know their craft. I highly recommend for interior or exterior work.

First class wonderful experience with Professional House Painters. They certainly live up to their name as their entire crew were “Professional”. They were detail oriented and did a fantastic job painting our home. We were consulted throughout the painting process on details concerning items like trim, overhangs, etc. The house was completed on time and the clean up afterwards was meticulous.

I recently hired Professional House Painters for a large, challenging job on my Tudor-style house in the Portland, Oregon area, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. After soliciting four bids, PHP stood out not only for their competitive pricing but also for their understanding of the unique requirements of my project. I wanted the sides of the trim boards painted in the trim color, rather than the body color, which required significantly more labor and skill.

Ramon Machain stood out from the start—more professional than others and the only one who immediately shared three local projects to inspect. Each showcased exceptional attention to architectural detail. His crew was just as impressive, spotting things others missed, prepping thoroughly, and working fast with precision to ensure a flawless finish. The crew was very professional yet friendly and open for questions and to share details of their approaches and techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lead paint abatement?

Lead paint abatement is the process of safely removing or sealing lead-based paint to reduce exposure risks—especially important in homes built before 1978.

How do I know if my home has lead paint?

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a high chance it contains lead paint. We offer certified testing and inspection to confirm before starting work.

Are you certified to handle lead paint in Oregon?

Yes. We’re EPA-certified and registered with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board for lead paint renovation and abatement work.

Removal eliminates lead paint entirely, while encapsulation seals it under a durable coating. We’ll recommend the right approach based on the condition of the surface.

Absolutely. We follow strict federal and state guidelines to contain dust, use HEPA filtration, and fully clean the area after work is completed.
