"I live on the San Francisco peninsula area. My kitchen floor needs replacing and before the floor installer could begin, they informed me I needed my existing flooring needed to be tested for ASBESTOS before any work could be done. I reached out to multiple companies from different platforms for ASBESTOS TESTING and not one company replied back to me except for ADVIRO recommended from ANGI"S LIST. Response was quick and professional. They made initial contact the next business day via text message, email and phone call. An appointment was made, 2 techs came to do the testing, less than an 20 min visit and result were emailed within 2 days. Original price quote was $455 but ended up being $535, due to a second layer of flooring. Each layer needed to be tested. They also recommended the vinyl border trim for testing, (again an additional cost) that I kindly declined. I would highly recommend ADVIRO."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. Professional lead paint inspectors need specific licenses to perform these inspections, which not all home inspectors have. If you suspect lead paint in the home you are about to purchase, you will need to pay separately to have that done. If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.

DIY kits are available for basic air quality testing, but professional services provide more comprehensive results and recommendations. While a DIY kit may seem cost-effective, a professional assessment is more thorough. Inspectors are better equipped to catch all pollutants and hazards, and you'll still need a professional to verify and act on DIY test results. Furthermore, some kits don't test for certain pollutants or only detect their presence without measuring specific levels (like mold spores). It's generally better to opt for a detailed professional assessment.

Determining if your water main contains lead involves a few steps. First, check the age of your property, as homes built before the 1980s might have lead pipes. Contact your water utility company for information on your service line material. Then, you can hire a professional plumber to conduct an inspection or use a lead testing kit to analyze water from the main line.

Lead removal services typically cost between $1,000 and $5,000, depending on the extent of lead presence, the property size, and the complexity of the abatement process.

With regular testing, treatment, and maintenance, water from a community well should be safe to drink. Unfortunately, the EPA does not regulate private wells, and contamination can happen. 

If you have doubts about the quality and safety of your drinking water, you have options for testing. You can pick up kits from your local home supply store or harvest samples and send them to a local testing facility. To get the most complete water quality testing and system diagnosis, seek a local well professional. They know what to test for and can recommend and implement a longer-lasting solution.
