Several decades ago, lead was a common component in numerous applications, infiltrating homes, schools, and businesses nationwide. Recognizing the perilous effects of lead exposure, the government banned the use of lead-based paint for consumers in 1978.
However, if your home or another frequented structure predates 1978, it likely contains lead-based paint on various surfaces, both interior and exterior. Found on siding, drywall, windows, doors, and more, lead-based paint poses a significant health risk, especially when hidden beneath newer layers that may peel or chip over time.
Lead exposure, particularly concerning for young children, is associated with various health issues. Therefore, if your property was built before 1978, seeking a lead-based paint inspection is prudent.
