Lead-based paint was commonly used in homes built before 1978. Today we know that overexposure to this metal can be harmful to you and your family and that deteriorating lead-based paint and its resulting dust should be handled with care.
Lead is found in many everyday places and things. Because you cannot see, taste or smell lead it is easily ingested, especially by young children. An estimated half a million U.S. children between the ages of one and five have high levels of lead in their bloodstream.
Young children easily ingest lead by swallowing old paint chips or breathing in dust from lead-based paint in older homes. An overexposure to lead can cause lead poisoning over time and lead to a host of physical and mental symptoms and even death.
Prevent your home or building from harming its inhabitants. Schedule a lead paint inspection and abatement to guarantee your structure remains timeless and safe from lead-based paint.
