Lead is a toxic heavy metal that can cause serious health problems, especially for children, pregnant women, and anyone exposed in the workplace. Properties built before 1978 are at the highest risk, as lead-based paint was widely used until the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned it for residential use.
