LEAD PAINT REMOVAL IN SYDNEY

About Lead Paint: Something You Might Not Know

Lead is a poisonous substance found in the paint used in our commercial or residential premises. Dust that comes from flaking and peeling old paint is the primary source of lead. Usually, lead poisoning occurs in homes built before 1970 because the usage of lead in painting products was banned in Australia after the 70s. The limit for lead in paint by Australian NHMRC was 0.5% for domestic use. But as long as your lead paint is in good condition, it’s okay. The problem arises when the paint starts to peel and you see lead flakes in every corner.

Lead poisoning is a serious health issue for kids mostly under the age of 7 than the adults. Because they have the tendency to put almost everything in their mouth and you definitely would not risk their lives. Even your pets can be affected by lead for the same reason.

For pregnant women, even a low level of lead can be dangerous as it can affect the growth of the child. Lead based paint can cause a premature birth too. So just to be sure a blood test is recommended to determine if there is the lead in blood and if yes then take immediate action to remove lead based paint with the help of experts.
