EPA Lead Cerification
Hi Everyone, I had a section-8 inspection recently and I was told that there are several windows with chipped paint and it needs to scraped and repainted to pass the inspection. I am having a hard time finding contractors (painters) with EPA Lead certification. I looked into getting the certification myself but not sure if that's going to help. Has anyone run to issues like this in Minneapolis , Saint Paul area and any recommendations on how to resolve this issue ?
