[quote=Anonymous]All licensed contractors in DC have to have EPA lead certification. If they disrupt a certain amount of painted wall then they have to follow lead safe procedures like: cordoning off the space with plastic walls, having sticky paper outside to attract dust off shoes, and finally wiping down all walls with wet wipes. We lived in our house through a major reno of our 30s house that involved all new windows, and taking down several walls/trim, etc. Our contractors were very serious about this (and they have to provide you with written info about lead safety too) and our kids thankfully tested at 0%.
