Our specialists can perform lead paint removal so your property is both safe and beautiful.<\/p>\n<h3>The facts about Lead<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>When it comes to interior and exterior painting, lead can affect children&#8217;s brains and developing nervous systems, causing reduced IQ, learning disabilities, and behavioral problems. Lead is also harmful to adults.<\/li>\n<li>People are exposed to lead through dust most commonly. People can also get lead in their bodies from lead in soil or paint chips. Lead dust is often invisible.<\/li>\n<li>Lead-based paint was used in more than 38 million homes until it was banned for residential use in 1978.<\/li>\n<li>Projects that disturb painted surfaces can create dust and endanger you and your family. Don&#8217;t let this happen to you!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Protecting you from lead &#8212; its the law!<\/h3>\n<p>In 2008, the Environmental Protection Agency issued a new rule under the Toxic Substances Control Act regarding &#8220;lead-based paint hazards created by renovation, repair, and painting activities that disturb lead-based paint in housing and child-occupied facilities.&#8221; The rule, which has an effective date of April 2010, directly affects general and specialty contractors by requiring them to be certified if they are performing work on a targeted facility and to provide warnings to let people know of the hazards. The EPA has been warning of fines up to $32,000 per day for using contractors not certified in lead renovation.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-229 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1.jpg\" alt=\"stauguestine_approvalcertificate_nat-f166609-1\" width=\"300\" height=\"230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-768x588.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-1024x784.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-1920x1470.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-720x551.jpg 720w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-960x735.jpg 960w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-1440x1103.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-351x269.jpg 351w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-307x235.jpg 307w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-360x276.jpg 360w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-222x170.jpg 222w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-236x181.jpg 236w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-470x360.jpg 470w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-669x512.jpg 669w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-562x430.jpg 562w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-554x424.jpg 554w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-416x319.jpg 416w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1-329x252.jpg 329w, https:\/\/pub-9fc1f065f07e441b8f35365c774f09ae.r2.dev\/uploads\/sites\/1350\/2016\/10\/StAuguestine_ApprovalCertificate_NAT-F166609-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protect your family from the effects of lead Builders of home prior to 1978 were unaware of the risks of lead paint.
