Q: Can I paint over lead paint?

• <div><p>You can paint over lead paint, or &ldquo;encapsulate&rdquo; it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-options-do-i-have-remove-lead-paint.htm">lead paint removal method</a> as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an &ldquo;encapsulant&rdquo; from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.</p></div>

Q: Is exterior paint toxic after it dries?

Hi! I've realized that I'm happiest in life working out-of-doors and with my hands. This has given me the opportunity to learn how to be an efficient and effective handyman with multiple areas of expertise. I spent several years in woodworking (furniture, floors, fences, maintenance, etc..), and currently co-own a seasonal landscape outfit specializing in Japanese-inspired landscapes.\n\nThis career has armed me with ample experience in anything from general lawn care all the way to major transformations. Some examples include: hardscaping, water features, patios, drainage, sprinkler repair, low-voltage lighting installation and repair, mulching, flower beds, rock gardens, and so much more. I'm not shy about getting on a roof and cleaning some gutters either, as well as other less glamorous work. \n\nI'm looking forward to connecting and lending a hand!
