About Lead Abatement
When remodeling homes built prior to 1978 it’s not unusual to incur lead-based paint. While this may seem minor, the work required during a home remodel can result in lead-dust, frequently from working on and around doors and windows. A certified lead abatement contractor is a company that can treat or remove lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards in order to make the property lead-safe for young children and other occupants. Certified professionals insure that work is done safely, reliably and effectively.
If you have reason to believe your home may have been painted with lead-based paint you should have it tested by a certified lead testing agency. A variety of methods may be used for testing including visual inspection, use of an x-ray fluorescence (XRF) machine, testing of paint samples and surface dust. To find a certified lead testing agency in your area contact your city's Planning or Building Department. There is a fee for testing, so check with your agency for more information.
