Where Lead Paint Can Be Found

In homes built before 1978, lead paint was commonly used. And although lead paint was banned in Canada for household use eventually, it is still present in many homes. Areas, where the paint could experience high levels of wear and tear, could leave you at risk of lead paint exposure. If you were to rent out your property or move away from it, a new owner may unknowingly bring in young children who may be at risk for lead poisoning.
