Safe & Non-Toxic Removal Process

Surface Works Australia utilises a non-toxic, eco-friendly paint removal system that effectively removes lead paints from residential, commercial and industrial sites. When you opt for chemical paint removal, all layers of paint are removed layer by layer with no harsh force applied to the surface and it is dust-free. Once all the paint layers are removed, you get back to the original surface just as it was when it was initially built. We comply with Australia's health and safety regulations and guidelines throughout each project to protect our team, clients and the surrounding environment from potential lead poisoning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is lead paint dangerous?

Unborn and young children are especially vulnerable to the effects of lead poisoning because their brains and nervous systems are still developing. They can suffer from behaviour problems, lower IQ levels and delays in both mental and physical development. Adults can experience abdominal pain, sleep issues, aggressive behaviour, irritability, fatigue, memory loss, and kidney dysfunction.

How do I know if my property has lead paint?

Lead paint was widely used across Sydney before the 1970s. If your home or building was constructed before this time, there's a good chance it contains lead paint. We can evaluate your paint coating for the presence of lead paint and determine the appropriate course of action.

Is chemical removal safer than abrasive blasting for lead paint?

When comparing chemical paint removal to abrasive blasting, the former is often a safer option where there is no dust formation, and the surface isn't as damaged. Chemical removal takes off paint layer by layer without harsh force.

What certification do you hold for lead paint removal?

We hold a Class 5 certification in lead paint management. Our team of licensed lead paint removal specialists are highly experienced and cautious in the safe removal of lead paint from surfaces.
