FULL Inspections Services from the foundation to the roof, specializing in Mold, Asbestos, Lead and Indoor Air Quality. We are impartial and work for you. Our job is to provide you with a comprehensive, independent, objective evaluation of your home. . See website for more service areas.

"Dan and his team did the most comprehensive inspection that I have ever experienced, and I could not be happier. Having purchased several homes over the years, I can think of at least three instances when supposedly excellent and experienced inspectors missed issues that later resulted in five-digit mitigations or repairs. So I am wary when hiring an inspector. However, I am confident that, if Dan’s team couldn’t find the issue, then it just can’t be found. Furthermore, Dan is incredibly personable, patient, and kind. He is generous with his time and willing to take the time to answer questions and discuss his findings. This level of care and attention is increasingly rare. I can recommend Dan and his team wholeheartedly, and without reservations. You will probably pay more for an inspection by All American but you can be confident that you won’t be paying three times more later to fix a problem that should have been addressed before the sale."

"These people STOLE!! I originally met Clint Nunez after sending my home plans to three different contractors, Cain being one. They were the middle price so I decided to meet with Clint Nunez, owner. I told Clint what had happened to me ( my husband passed away that year suddenly, I was pregnant and had a 2 year old. I expressed to him this was our dream home, that we were also renting and I really needed this build completed start to finish move in ready within 6-8 months. He gave push back but ultimately promised a 9 month time frame. I paid every pay app, in the end paying 95% of my contract, to a home that was incomplete. I finally stopped paying and kicked them off the job(2 years in) (I signed the contract in October 2017, kicked them off around April 2019) got a contractor deficiency inspector out and he was mortified. Said everything that could be wrong was wrong. Change orders they charged for werent done, doors on backwards, no Hurricane clips, not the right support rafters in the attic, I had mold growing on my cabinets because the house was left opened to the elements for months. The front door wasn’t what was ordered, missing grout throughout the house and the list goes on. Then when I get a loan to complete my home (2 years later). I had liens for concrete, lumber and doors on my home. That they had been paid for!!! They completely robbed me and had no remorse. I hired an attorney, who tried to get them to come out and do what was right and they declined wanting MORE MONEY!!! Now I found out they just simply changed their name to Central City Millworks. Do not do any business with Clint Nunez no matter what the business name is! He is a horrible human being who robs people and get away with it by simply changing business names!"

FAQs for lead testing and removal projects in New Orleans, LA

Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.

Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:

  • Location

  • Materials and equipment needed

  • Disposal method

  • Accessibility

  • Surface types

  • Repairs needed

  • Labor

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.

Common home surfaces to test for lead include:

  • Walls

  • Windows

  • Doors

  • Molding and trim

  • Railings

A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
