Lead in paint

We know that too much lead in our bodies isn’t healthy. Over the last
30 years or so, a lot has been done to get rid of lead in this country,
but you may still come across it in old paint.
This is because up until the mid-1960s, lead was used to make some
kinds of paint – for windows, doors, and other woodwork as well as
for some metal items, like radiators. A few minor uses continued until
the 1980s.

 

How will I know if there’s lead in my paintwork?

  • The age of your home is a good guide. If it was built before the1960s and still has original coats of paint, there could be some lead around.
  • Another clue is if your paintwork is quite thick – lead could be locked into the oldest layers. That’s not a problem if it’s in good condition and you don’t plan to decorate. If it has recently had a new coat of paint, this probably will have sealed any lead in.
  • Modern household paints do not contain added lead and are not dangerous. So, if your home is newer, there won’t be any lead there.
  • Testing for it.
