Lead information
What Is Lead?
Lead is a toxic metal commonly found in older paint, dust, pipes, and building materials—especially in homes and buildings built before 1978. Although it may not always be visible, lead exposure can create serious health concerns when left unaddressed.
Lead hazards often become more dangerous during renovations, repairs, deterioration, or when older materials begin to chip, crack, or create dust.
Where Is Lead Commonly Found?
Common areas include:
✔ Older painted walls
✔ Windows and trim
✔ Doors and door frames
✔ Dust from renovations
✔ Older plumbing systems
✔ Aging building materials
Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore
Lead hazards are often hidden in plain sight. Knowing where to look can help reduce unnecessary exposure and protect the people inside your property.
Warning signs:
⚠ Home or building built before 1978
⚠ Chipping or peeling paint
⚠ Renovation or construction dust
⚠ Aging windows and trim
⚠ Deteriorating painted surfaces
Why Lead Is Dangerous
Lead exposure can pose serious health risks, especially for children, pregnant women, and families. Even low levels of exposure can become a concern over time if hazardous materials are disturbed or left untreated.
Because lead hazards are often difficult to identify without proper evaluation, many property owners are unaware of potential risks until damage, renovations, or exposure concerns arise.
What you can’t easily see can still create serious risk.

✔ Your property was built before 1978
