When it comes to the dangers of lead paint, hiring the right contractor is crucial. AdjustPro Solutions specializes in lead paint removal and abatement, and we take care of all the required licenses, certifications, and insurance.
Lead paint is a highly toxic material that was commonly used in homes and schools prior to 1978. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned lead-based paint in the United States in 1978. Lead is a highly toxic metal linked to a number of health issues, especially in children and pregnant women. As lead particles are ingested into the body, they can damage the brain and impede the development of your child’s brain. Learning disabilities, bad behavior, seizures, and death have all been attributed to lead poisoning. Lead poisoning can cause damage to the kidneys, the blood, and the nervous system.

Learning disabilities, bad behavior, seizures, and death have all been attributed to lead poisoning. Lead poisoning can cause damage to the kidneys, the blood, and the nervous system.
When lead paint deteriorates and fails, tiny particles of lead dust are released into the air. Countertops, windowsills, floors, baseboards, tables, and other household items begin to absorb this potentially hazardous dust. On the exterior of your house, lead paint dust can contaminate decks, patios, children’s play areas, and the soil. Since lead paint has a sweet taste, small children are prone to putting stuff in their mouths, including their hands. As a result, the risk of ingesting harmful lead toxins is greatly increased.
If you are planning a lead paint removal project or permanently remove lead-based paint hazards from your house, you must hire a licensed Lead Abatement Contractor. As the landlord, it is your responsibility to hire a contractor who is licensed and insured to complete the job. A contractor with only an individual RRP certificate is not an approved abatement company.
It’s important to ask questions and receive certifications and insurance documents. Unfortunately, simply asking your painter if he or she can remove or abate lead is insufficient. If you hire an unlicensed lead paint contractor and the job results in the contamination of the region with hazardous materials, you may be held liable.
In order to remove lead paint, the contractor must have the following paperwork.
