Good job Wader...hopefully the reverse effects will be seen soon.
I have a short waste pipe that is lead so I will send out this caution...don't use a snake in lead waste pipes as you can plow right thru the soft metal.
The first thought that came to mind was my morals will not allow me to sell something that will help kill him. He could have them for free if they are so valuable to him. Then Immulmen solved the equation. The new strategy would be to get his bid. Then scrap the lead and tell him you made so much more you could not give it up for business reasons. If he allowed you to scrap his lead pipes it would be enough to replace the lines and pay your labor, allowing you to make a living, giving him pride that he is not a charity case, and provide him a healthier living situation. My father is Bohemian and stubborn, so thinking outside the box is required for all interactions.
I have had and still have an old house. We had it tested for lead and the XRF ID some spots in our house we replaced but the best thing I learned from the inspector was that sunflowers absorb lead from the soil. his leach field will have lead contaminants and also around his hose bib. a few years of sun flowers will reduce this if he is interested.
good job in looking out for your neighbors.
