Professional Lead Based Paint Removal Now Offered

Jan. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- San Diego, CA (1/13/12) – San Diego painting company, House Painting San Diego, is excited to offer expert lead based paint removal services for residential homes. Lead based paint is highly toxic to people, pets and the environment and can only be removed by EPA certified professionals.
   
Lead based paint was widely used in residential houses until its ban in 1978 and still remains in many homes today, causing a potentially dangerous living environment. Lead causes reproductive deformations and neurological damage when ingested, and damage can be caused by swallowing lead paint chips and breathing in lead paint dust. The EPA, Environmental Protection Agency, requires that all homes must be certified lead free or be sold with a warning and a signed waiver. Further, any home improvement that affects a painted area, including repainting, must be completed by a certified lead paint expert. Removal includes special protective clothing and equipment and fully containing the room with industrial plastic

House Painting San Diego recognizes that there are many reasons homeowners should want to remove the lead based paint in their homes and is proud to offer this vital service. Families with young children and pregnant women are especially at risk, as are homes with paint that is peeling or chipping. All houses built before 1978 are at risk of having lead paint and should be evaluated for safety reasons. House Painting San Diego provides lead based paint removal services that are environmentally friendly, protect the integrity of the house and – most importantly - keep family members safe.
