Homeowners in West Philadelphia Need Lead Testing Services
Why should you test your University City home or apartment for lead-based paint?
If your University City home was built prior to March of 1978, you may wish to have the paint tested for your own peace of mind. Even if you don’t plan on selling or renting out the property anytime soon, it can still pose a danger to you and your family. Children six years old or younger who are exposed to lead paint are much more likely to develop learning disabilities.
Don’t put your children at risk, especially when affordable testing services are available in your West Philadelphia neighborhood. Call Bay Hill today at 215-284-0086 or click here to request a quote.
University City Rental Properties Must be Lead-Safe or Lead-Free Certified
Anyone who owns rental property in University City that was built before March of 1978 must have that property certified lead-safe or lead-free. The regulations outlining this certification are a part of Chapter 6-800 and Chapter PM-102.0 of the Philadelphia City Code.
The Philadelphia city council passed a bill amending these specific chapters to include regulations about lead paint and certification requirements in 2011. These regulations affect all landlords, property managers, and anyone else in University City who rents multi-unit dwellings.
