Lead Paint Testing and Inspection
Your home, residential commercial property or commercial property may be a prime place for the presence of Lead Paint. Especially if the structure is older than 1980. Exposure to Lead Paint can cause serious health issues.
Lead Paint refers to paint that contained lead. Lead was added to paint to accelerate drying time, increases durability, maintain a fresh appearance and resist moisture that causes corrosion. Paint containing lead has been phased out of use due to the toxic nature of lead. Lead is a highly toxic metal that may cause a range of health problems, especially in young children, such as:
- Headaches
- Stomachaches
- Nausea
- Tiredness
- Irritability
- Brain Damage
- Kidney Damage
- Nerve Damage
- Behavioral Problems
- Learning Disabilities
- Seizures
- Death
- Skin Rashes
- Mobility Damage
Children who are lead poisoned may also show no symptoms – at least not initially.
Both inside and outside the home deteriorated lead-paint mixes with household dust and soil and becomes tracked in. Children may become lead poisoned by:
- Putting their hands or other lead-contaminated objects into their mouths,
- Eating paint chips found in homes with peeling or flaking lead-based paint, or
- Playing in lead-contaminated soil
