Lead-Based PaintLead-Based Paint
If your house was built or painted before 1978 there is a good chance that it contains lead-based paint. Lead-based paint becomes a hazard when it is disturbed (i.e. by sanding or chipping) and minute paint particles become airborne. Inhalation or ingestion can cause permanent damage including hyperactivity, sterility, and impairment of reading and hearing abilities. Children up to 6 years old and pregnant women are particularly at risk.
