Q: Do you have to remove lead paint?

• <div><p>You do not have to remove lead paint if the surface is not chipping or peeling or if there are no pregnant people or children under the age of six who live in or regularly visit your home. Lead paint is a particular risk for young children whose brains and bodies are not fully developed. Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it&rsquo;s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home. You can experience lead poisoning by breathing in or ingesting just a small amount of it.</p></div>

Q: What trash can I not dispose of myself?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-i-properly-dispose-old-house-paint.htm">Disposing of old paint</a>, bleach, oil, and fertilizer should be handled by a company that specializes in this kind of waste. Many private junk removal companies do not dispose of these items. Because these materials are hazardous to the environment and dangerous to handle or dispose of improperly, you should confirm with your local municipality about places to take hazardous materials for safe disposal. </p></div>

Q: Why is lead paint toxic?

• <div><p>Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it&rsquo;s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. </p></div>

Q: What products do I use to clean up lead dust?

• <div><p>You may see specialty products for sale to remove lead dust, such as D-Lead surface wipes. But you do not need to buy a special cleaner just for lead dust. A regular all-purpose cleaner, like 409 or something similar, is sufficient for cleanup. Just make sure to follow the manufacturer's directions when using it and to dilute with water.</p></div>

Q: What are the health risks associated with lead exposure?

• <div><p>Lead exposure poses significant health risks, including neurological, developmental, and behavioral disorders, especially critical in young children and fetuses.</p></div>

Justin and Braden were actually skilled plumbers, not handymen. They made sure to tackle the problem at the source and not just patch it up with a quick fix. They were able to come out and repair the problem the same day as well. Very respectable and kind young men.

We are a husband and wife lawn care team. We currently offer basic lawn care services. Mowing, weed trimming, edging, blowing and trim shrubs and trees. We offer mulching and debris clean up. We also perform junk removal. Small to medium jobs are our thing but will take on pretty much what you need. We both are full time law enforcement and have a dream of running our own business. We also offer individual services. Your mower works but your weed eater doesn’t just call us. Hate trimming the shrubs just call us. We are proud to accommodate your needs.
