Windsor Asbestos & Lead Removal

Asbestos and Lead removal is not a process for "do it yourself" weekend work. Lead in the home is a leading source of lead poisoning for children; as lead paint flakes off from commonly-touched surfaces such as window and door sills, children can ingest it or absorb it through the skin. Older bathtubs can have lead in the porcelain as well; 4% of all children in the U.S. have elevated blood levels, normally a result of home exposure. "De-leading" a home, and removing asbestos from insulation, floors, and shingles requires a professional contractor; inhaled asbestos can cause serious respiratory complications. Be certain to find a contractor who will follow local and state codes, and check with your local town or city to determine whether a permit is needed for certain types of work.
