What is Lead-Safe Renovation?
If your home was built before 1978, it may contain lead-based paint. Renovation, repair, and painting activities can create hazardous lead dust. Our certified team follows EPA and NC state regulations to ensure all work is performed safely, protecting you and your family from lead exposure.

Non-invasive swab testing for lead residues on painted surfaces and high-contact areas (windows, trim, doors).
