In
Minnesota, approximately 1.2 million homes throughout the state contain
at least some lead paint. Because lead is commonly found in the
environment, activities carried out by the MDH Lead Program affect
virtually all residents of Minnesota. Children under 6 years old and
pregnant women are the most vulnerable to lead and are considered to
have "elevated" lead levels if their blood test results are greater than
10 ug/dL. Although there has been a dramatic decline in national blood
lead levels over the past 10-15 years, childhood lead poisoning
continues to be a major, preventable environmental health problem.
Access Builders holds a Lead Risk Assessors certification
which allows us to test for the presence of lead and to evaluate lead
hazards. We are also certified Lead Supervisors which qualifies
us to employ abatement and or interim solutions to any existing lead
conditions. Access Builders is committed to protecting your family
against any potential lead hazards.
