What should Owner Sheeres consider when renovating a house built in 1949?

  1. Asbestos is irrelevant as it was banned in the early 1930s

  2. Lead in old paint and pipes could be a concern

  3. Lead dust poses no health danger

  4. Both asbestos and lead are not a concern for old houses

  5. Neither lead nor asbestos are present in older homes

  6. Only asbestos would be a concern in homes built after the 1930s

The correct answer is: Lead in old paint and pipes could be a concern

When renovating a house built in 1949, Owner Sheeres should consider the presence of lead in old paint and pipes as a potential concern. In 1949, lead-based paint was still commonly used in homes, and lead pipes were also commonly installed for plumbing systems. Both lead-based paint and lead pipes can pose health risks if not properly addressed during renovations. As for the other options: A. Asbestos was not banned in the early 1930s and can be present in older homes. C. Lead dust can indeed pose a health danger, so it is not irrelevant. D. Both asbestos and lead should be considered when renovating an old house. E. Lead and asbestos are possible concerns in older homes. F. Asbestos can still be present in homes built after the 1930s.
