If you’re living in an apartment or home built before 1978, there’s a chance that it may contain lead paint. Communication is key in keeping your home and children safe from potential lead poisoning. Both tenants and landlords should work together to identify and prevent lead-based paint hazards.
Do you have or suspect potentially dangerous lead paint in your building or home? Are you wondering if it’s safe to paint over it? As EPA-certified lead professionals, we’ll break down and explain when and how you can paint over lead paint.
Before you buy or rent a home, it’s important to be informed about any potential lead threats in order to protect the health and safety of your family and children. A lead based paint disclosure form includes information that the seller or landlord has about the presence of lead-based paint hazards in the dwelling.
