Advanced Lead Paint Removal System For Your Lake Stevens Home
SFW Painting uses only environmentally sustainable lead paint removal strategies, including UV scraping, electric paint shaving, and lead paint encapsulation. We never use chemicals that pollute the environment or your property. To ensure your health and safety during the lead paint removal work, we utilize advanced technologies such as the Festool HEPA Sander, which suctions lead paint chips and particulates into a HEPA rated Dust Extractor system. This process removes 100% of the lead paint dust particulates from your home, ensuring a living environment that is healthy and lead-free. HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filters are the most effective air filters in the world as they meet United States Department of Energy standards.
