Lead Certified Cleanup
Residential & Commercial
Professional lead-certified cleanup for homes and businesses in Brewer, Bangor, Bar Harbor, Mount Desert Island, and Central Maine. Penobscot Cleaning Services provides RRP-certified, lead-safe cleanup and containment—restoring affected spaces safely while protecting health, compliance, and property.
Lead Cleanup Requires Professionals.
Proper handling protects health, prevents contamination, and ensures legal compliance.
Lead dust, debris, and residues from older homes (pre-1978) can cause serious health risks if not properly managed. Surfaces, flooring, walls, and porous materials can harbor lead particles that spread quickly during renovation, emergency disturbances, or demolition. Our trained, RRP-certified technicians follow EPA and state guidelines to safely remediate affected areas, minimize exposure, and maintain safety for occupants, workers, and families.
When to Call for Lead Cleanup
Call immediately if you encounter peeling or chipping paint, visible dust or debris after renovation, or suspect lead hazards in older homes or buildings. Cleanup should be performed promptly to protect children, pregnant occupants, and anyone exposed, and to prevent permanent contamination of surfaces and belongings.
