Charlotte Remodeling Project - Do You Know if Your Home has Lead Paint or Asbestos?

Are you remodeling a Charlotte home that was built prior to 1978?  If you are, do you know the new rules for remodeling a house that may have lead paint or asbestos?  Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint, which can be harmful to adults and children.

Get The Lead Out® is a supporter and proponent of having EPA-certified construction and renovation companies work on your home’s remodeling project if they will disturb lead paint!  Under the current EPA rule, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities, and schools built before 1978 must be certified and must follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.

If you are a homeowner performing renovation, repair, or painting work in your own home, EPA's rule does not cover your project. However, you have the ultimate responsibility for the safety of your family or children in your care!

Get The Lead Out® can help.  We have provided professional, reliable expert lead paint testing since 1993. Our basic $350 lead paint test for a typical  2,000 sq.ft. house will uncover any lead paint within your home.  You will receive an easy-to-read, comprehensive report of our findings.  If we do find traces of lead paint within your house, we will also offer you plans on dealing with it.

It pays for you to know if you have dangerous lead paint in your home before any remodeling or renovation work is performed.  Just be safe!  Call Get The Lead Out® at 704-376-3594 or email peteh@gettheleadout.biz and we will talk with you about lead paint testing and schedule your home’s test!
