WHAT IS

lead paint?

Lead paint was widely used in homes and buildings before 1978, and although it may look harmless, it becomes dangerous when it chips, peels, or creates dust. When lead particles are inhaled or ingested, they can enter the bloodstream and cause serious long-term health effects, especially in young children and pregnant women.

Lead exposure is linked to developmental delays, learning problems, behavioral issues, high blood pressure, kidney damage, and other health concerns. Because of these risks, federal guidelines require that lead-based paint be handled only by certified professionals.

If your home or building was constructed before 1978, it is important to have a licensed inspector evaluate the condition of the paint and determine whether removal, stabilization, or containment is needed.
