Yes. Common renovation activities like sanding, cutting, and demolition can create hazardous lead dust and chips by disturbing lead-based paint, which can be harmful to adults and children. To protect against this risk, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires contractors that perform renovations, repairs and painting projects that disturb lead-based paint in homes built before 1978 to be certified. Contractors must obtain certification and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination. Vella Bath & Kitchen is certified and complies with all aspects of the EPA requirements.
