LEAD
The most common source of lead is paint in homes and buildings built before 1978. Lead can also be emitted into the air from industrial sources and leaded aviation gasoline. Lead can enter drinking water through plumbing materials. It is also used in the production of batteries, ammunition, metal products, and X-ray shielding devices. Due to health concerns, the use of lead in paints and ceramic products, caulking, and pipe solder has been dramatically reduced in recent years.
LCG offers a complete range of services from lead inspections to site assessments and abatement projects, completed in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations. Our expert staff customizes affordable and effective resolutions to meet every client's needs.

ASBESTOS-CONTAINING MATERIALS (ACM)
Asbestos is the name for a group of naturally occurring silicate minerals that can be separated into fibers. The fibers are strong, durable, and resistant to heat and fire. The fibers are long, thin, and flexible, so they can be woven into cloth. Because of these qualities, asbestos has been used in thousands of consumer, industrial, maritime, automotive, scientific, and building products. During the 20th century, some 30 million tons of asbestos have been used in industrial sites, homes, schools, shipyards and commercial buildings in the United States. Common asbestos containing materials (ACM) include pipe-covering, plaster, insulating cement, insulating block, refractory and boiler insulation materials, transite board, fireproofing spray, joint compound, vinyl floor tile, ceiling tile, mastics, roofing products, and duct insulation for HVAC applications. Inhalation of asbestos fibers can result in deleterious health effects.
LCG is an authorized Asbestos Safety Control Monitor firm, which applies to all publicly owned facilities and educational facilities within the State of New Jersey.

MOLD
When excessive moisture or water accumulates indoors, mold growth will often occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or unaddressed.
LCG conducts extensive mold inspections using the EPA's guidelines set forth in Mold Remediation in Schools and Commercial Buildings.
