The EPA has ruled that taking affect in October 2010, contractors performing renovation, repair and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes, child care facilities and schools built before 1978 must be certified by the EPA . Then they must integrate specific practices to prevent lead contamination while working on the project.
To quality for certification, the EPA offers an intensive training and testing program to become a Lead-Safe Certified Firm. Integrity Home Projects has gone through the training program and is one of the few contractors certified in the Minneapolis and St. Paul area. We have our LEAD-SAFE program underway and in place to handle your projects with the finest craftsmanship while implementing best practices to keep you and your family safe during your remodeling or renovation project.
Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint, which can be harmful to adults and children. Through the EPA certification, we can keep you from harm.
This critical message about remodeling safety should be shared with anyone who is thinking about a project that may involve disturbing lead-based paint in a home, day care or school built before 1978. It’s your safety and your home - call someone you can trust, Integrity Home Projects. 763-286-7429 or http://www.ihpbuilders.com/.
