Renovate the Home in Lead-Safe Way


Homes that were built prior to 1978 may have the pres-
ence of lead. Homeowners thinking about home improve-
ment renovations may want to consider taking extra safety
precautions to prevent lead contamination.
Consumption of lead can result in many health problems,
affecting the nervous system and kidneys and possibly in-
terfering with fertility and reproduction. High doses of lead
can cause mental retardation, behavior problems, brain
damage, and even death.
Older homes may contain a good deal of lead. Lead used
to be added to paint to make the product last longer and
flow easier. Water pipes used to be made from lead, as was
the solder used to connect the pipes. Lead may even be in
the soil surrounding the home.
Because of the dangers lead presents, many homeowners
are interested in retrofitting their homes to remove traces
of old lead, or at least prevent future contamination. Hom-
eowners who are just doing minor renovations may actually
stir up lead and introduce it into the environment. That is
why caution must be taken with older homes.
Whether one is hiring a contractor for renovations or do-
ing the work him- or herself, a lead-safe manner should be
followed.
* Cover entryways, venting, ductwork, flooring and
other items in the room with an impermeable cover-
ing to prevent the release of lead dust outside of the
work area.
* Use wet-scraping and wet-sanding methods to mini-
mize the amount of dust generated that could contain
lead.
* Make sure tools, personnel and other equipment are
cleaned before exiting the room so that dust is not
spread.
* Use containers to securely store waste and debris so it
can safely be removed from the house. Painting is a temporary solution for dealing with lead
