Lead Services

Lead is a toxic substance that enters the body through inhalation (dust) or ingestion and can accumulate in vital organs (kidneys, brain, liver), as well as in the blood and bones. Lead-related health issues can be from acute or chronic exposures and can be manifested in seizures, coma or even death. Lead exposure is regulated by various federal and state agencies. At the federal level, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulate residential exposures, while the U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) regulates lead exposure in the workplace.
