[MassHistPres] Deleading Historic Windows in a District

[rcsmitharch at verizon.net]

I believe that Window Woman in Amesbury has experience with this.  I’s a two part issue- lead in the paint on historic sash and asbestos contamination in the glazing compound.  They strip the paint in their shop.

Hello,

 

Have any commissions had experience with property owners in local historic districts who wanted to (or needed to) delead historic windows?  I would be interested to know about different scenarios, if specific recommendations or requirements have been made, etc.

 

I was also wondering if anyone has experience with firms or individuals who are experienced in deleading windows in a historically appropriate manner.

 

Thank you,
