lead hazard remediation

Lead hazard remediation is the process of identifying and safely removing lead-based hazards from homes or buildings, particularly older ones where lead paint or contaminated dust may exist. This involves thorough inspections, cleaning, sealing, or replacing lead-contaminated materials to protect occupants, especially children, from health risks associated with lead exposure. Remediation is crucial for ensuring safe living environments and meeting regulations to prevent lead poisoning. It should be conducted by trained professionals to ensure it is done safely and effectively.
