Presto Painting: Your Trusted LSR Lead Certified Contractor

Presto Painting: Your Trusted Lead-Safe Renovation (LSR) Certified Paint Contractor

When it comes to painting, renovation, or repair work in homes and buildings built before 1978, lead safety is paramount. Lead-based paint hazards pose serious health risks, especially to children and pregnant women. That’s why Presto Painting is proud to be a Lead-Safe Renovation (LSR) Certified Paint Contractor in Massachusetts, fully licensed and trained to perform all work safely and in compliance with state and federal lead regulations.

What Does Being an LSR Certified Contractor Mean?

As an LSR certified contractor, Presto Painting has met the rigorous requirements set by the Massachusetts Department of Labor Standards (DLS) and adheres to the state’s lead-safe renovation laws (454 CMR 22.00). This certification ensures that:

• All renovation, repair, and painting (RRP) work disturbing lead-based paint is performed safely.

• A Lead-Safe Renovator Supervisor is on-site at all times during the project to oversee compliance with lead-safe work practices.

• Workers are properly trained in lead hazard control and follow strict protocols to prevent lead dust and debris from contaminating the environment.

• The company maintains thorough documentation and notification procedures as required by law.

• Presto Painting is registered as a Lead-Safe Certified Firm with the state of Massachusetts.

Why Lead Safety Certification Matters to You

Older homes and buildings, especially those constructed before 1978, are likely to contain lead-based paint. Disturbing this paint during renovations can release toxic lead dust and chips, which are harmful when inhaled or ingested. Lead poisoning can cause serious health problems, including developmental delays in children and other chronic conditions.
