Definition:

Lead is a toxic mineral that can be found in the earth’s crust. Lead was a popular mineral used in interior and exterior paints, in the 20th century. In addition to adding pigment to paint, lead also reduced drying time, increased durability, was resistant to moisture and was inexpensive. Due to the discovery of potential adverse health effects posed by lead, federal and state regulations have been developed to regulate the removal and handling of lead based products .

Items commonly found to contain lead:  

      • Commercial and Industrial Coatings
      • Interior Trim Work (baseboards)
      • Lead Sheeting Within Radiology Departments
      • Structural Steel
      • Wooden Exteriors (window sashes and doors)
