"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 FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost of a lead paint inspection is about $600, but it can cost as low as $150 or as much as $800, depending on the size of the area, geographic location, and the inspection methods. Some of the most common lead paint inspection methods include:

  • Visual inspection: $150–$400

  • Paint sampling: $200–$600

  • X-ray fluorescence (XRF): $250–$700

  • Risk assessment: $300–$800

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.

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.

Iron sediments from rusty pipes are not likely to cause health problems. While a glass of yellow-hued water is off-putting, it is generally safe to drink yellow water in the short term. But you certainly want to address this problem. In the meantime, switching to bottled water until the yellow water issue is resolved is a good idea.
