Older Naples homes could be impacted by new remodel guidelines created by the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA asks for lead training, certification, and safe work practice requirements for builders involved in remodels on homes built prior to 1987. Their objective is to eliminate the public health concern of lead poisoning by the year 2010.
Lead has been used for so many years in paint and is a particularly abrasive metal. It may trigger a range of health problems and kids younger than six are most at risk since their nervous systems are not yet completely developed. If you have any concerns with regards to lead in your home, contact Naples real estate .
