will it be harder to replace windows for houses built before 1979?
From my understanding, the EPA passed some regulation that went into effect on April 22nd. It requires contractors to take extra steps when replacing windows on homes built before 1979 and some contractors may decide to avoid working on houses built before 1979 or charge more to replace their windows. It has something to do with lead paint. Is this true?
Yes……….it sucks…..homes before 1978—–must be checked in the area to be worked on by a certified renovator (I just had to go to school to get certified) its called the RRP rule…if the home has a child under 6 or a pregnant woman –then the rules are even stricter—in those cases a lead assessor or risk assessor have to do the test(and in hud houses they are the only ones certified–SUCKS
I had to take time off work ,spend money on tools and equipment–my brain is overloaded with info
also my van is overloaded with more stuff to hall around –if I follow everthing they say I will have to through away every thing I own that is not a hard surface–lead can’t be washed out of cloth etc.
So should I throw out the seats in my van ,the headliner the carpetthe seatbelts..should I throw out all my clothsand every thing I owned for 56 years—this law is killing me and it destroyed jobs when they should be creating jobs not destroying the livly hood of millions???????????????/
I just eat strawberrys to get the lead out of me but congress screwed every contractors life up with this law –they tell you plastic everything off -try that on the snow or ona carpet when leaning out a window–
whoever made this law knows nothing about the real world they must live in a box……….theres more but this is getting me pissed so I don’t want to talk about it any(its the only thing that ever messed up my sleep hours except for a divorce 17 years ago)In this state only abut 500 contractors out of maybe 35000 even knew of the law—stupid -stupid stupid stupid epa get out of my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
