Jonathan Sweet - Remodeling Notes


Jay Sweet
As senior editor of Professional Remodeler, a lot of information crosses my desk. This blog will be a chance to share some of that with you, with an immediacy not possible with a monthly magazine. It's also your chance to tell me what you think about what I have to say. Whether you agree or disagree, I hope you won't be shy.

New lead paint study shows bigger impact

Hard to say what impact this will have on the EPA's soon-to-be-released lead paint remediation standards, but if anything it will make them tougher on remodelers than they were already expected to be.

A new report says that lead paint has an effect on children at levels even lower than the U.S. standard of 10 micrograms per deciliter of blood.

For more on the forthcoming standards, visit www.epa.gov/lead or NAHB's lead paint section.

A likely outcome will be increased prices for professional lead paint removal services and many people will try to remove lead paint on their own. With the right information and tools it can be done cheaply and safely; go to leadpaintblog.com.
