Lead paint hazards remain a significant concern in pre-1978 rental properties, particularly from single-pane, original wooden windows, which are still prevalent in Baltimore's rental market. Unlike windows, which are often replaced with modern aluminum or vinyl alternatives, original wooden doors are frequently retained and can pose a risk if not properly maintained. Friction between door jambs and the door itself can generate lead dust, contributing to potential lead poisoning. For expert lead paint inspections and rental license inspections in Baltimore City and Baltimore County, contact Edwards & Son Home Inspection for professional, reliable service to ensure your property meets safety standards.
