Evening, Was planning on sanding our stairs but did a swab test and 1 out of about 8 tests had signs of lead. What is the best way to remove safely? I read online about Peelaway but cannot find many instructions about what precautions need taking when using it.

Decided to do lead paint testing in our house and three doorframes and architraves came back positive upstairs and slight traces on front window frame downstairs. We have arranged a builder to come round in a couple of weeks to replace all doorframes and architraves upstairs and getting a quote for upvc window for the downstairs one trace here was inbetween old window and current frame which will rip out all the woodwork there too. Plus a new front door as the wood round it showed traces too. My concerns are - when the builder comes in to remove is it going to create a storm of toxic lead dust everywhere albeit we will ensure dust sheets etc and how long is that an issue for? Lastly the test goes red even on the bare wood on this pic. Would this mean lead paint was there previously and seaped into the wood? Is that better?!

Afternoon all, I'm just about to prep a room for decorating and I was wondering about lead paint. House was built in and I've just stripped some old wall paper off. Some of the yellow paint, which i suspect is water based because it's very thin, came away underneath so in some spots, it's back to plaster.

Digital testing equipment is ideal for exact measurements of many variables. Multi detectors are great workhorses as they indicate the presence of metal within a wall such as studs, steel framing and electrical wires so can be used for a wide range of projects. For more specialist tasks we have a range of multimeters, digital thermometers, mains testers, pressure testers and inspection cameras. See more Hand Tools. Bosch Multi detector.

Thanks for the reply. If there's a chance of fumes and dust then a suitable respirator, not a basic dust mask.

Your name or email address: Do you already have an account? Not sure if the tiny bits of dark red paint you can see are the actual lead ones as being red paint could they also turn the swab red anyway?! I am awaiting the lead tester kit which I ordered online. Definitely very thin layer and black in colour.
