Lead-Based Paint Management Homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint. It is important to identify and abate
any paint that may be a hazard. The soil around a home can also be contaminated from the lead in exterior paint. Environmental Risk Management, Inc.'s state certified inspectors and risk assessors can help you decide what steps need to be taken to
prevent potential health problems. Asbestos Identification and Removal It is estimated that between 1900 and 1978 approximately 30 million tons of asbestos had been
used in the construction of buildings. Asbestos was commonly used in roofing felt, tar paper, pipe and boiler insulation, electrical wire insulation, drywall compound, shingles vinyl floor tiles, linoleum flooring and mastics. When this material is
not properly maintained, it presents a great health risk to anyone who is exposed to the dangerous fibers. The potential for someone developing lung cancer or other lung diseases is greatly increased as the exposure is increased. Our state certified
inspectors can help you decide what steps need to be taken to prevent potential health problems. Water Sampling and Analysis Homes with well water systems often
have contaminants such as coliforms. Our in-house lab can provide you with accurate and quick results for total coliforms. Indoor Air Quality Surveys Indoor air
quality problems are not just an industrial concerns. Problems such as radon, pesticides, and mold often plague homeowners. We can perform a study to identify possible problems and offer cost-effective solutions. |
