Lead paint presents the risk of lead poisoning and if detected should be removed by a professional service. Lead poisoning, if not detected and removed in time, can result in death. Children often consume undetected lead paint through dust or by eating lead paint if it is not removed. X-ray machine testing to detect lead paint can be performed and if lead is found, it can then be removed. The detection and removal of lead base paint hazards by a service is known as abatement. Lead paint may be present in lead painted homes, furniture or old toys painted with lead paint, and other lead paint treated surfaces. When lead paint is detected it should be removed immediately.
