Lead Testing and Remediation

Lead testing and remediation refer to the processes aimed at identifying and eliminating lead hazards in homes and environments. Lead is a toxic metal that can cause serious health issues, especially in children. Testing typically involves measuring lead levels in paint, dust, soil, or water. If lead is found, remediation involves safely removing or sealing the lead sources, such as repainting surfaces or replacing contaminated soil. These efforts are crucial for ensuring a safe living space and protecting public health from the harmful effects of lead exposure.
