Lead Based Paint

Was your home built before 1978?  Are you thinking about remodeling?  We have some important information for you.  Beginning April 2010 contractors performing work that disturbs lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities and schools must be EPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.

Luke Hoffman is ceritified in lead safety for renovation, repair and painting and Granite Ridge Builders now has the certification from the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

Lead is a toxic metal that was used many years in products found in and around homes.  Lead can cause a range of health problems from learning disabilities to seizures.

Some of the most common sources of lead poisoning are:

Deteriorating lead-based paint

Lead contamination dust

Lead contaminated residential dust
