[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those who ripped them out, did you use a GC for the work. Did you use a company certified for lead?[/quote] We just ripped them out ourselves. We put a layer of plastic and then paper on the floor and pulled them out. There was very little dust. Cleaned with a HEPA vacuum and mopped and was done. Then we replaced them (DIY). You don't need a GC to do it. You can hire a handy man, carpenter, or DIY. Our lead was only in one layer on the base so the likelihood of it being an issue was slim to rip them out (the sanding we did prior to ripping them out was probably a problem but the doctor was not concerned when I went to talk to her about it).[/quote]
