"Evan was very helpful and professional. He ensured I had all the information about the testing process and answered all of my questions. He was also very friendly and honest with me about the work that has been done on my house and any future work to be done. As soon as I have a new project I will be reaching out to him directly and can’t recommend him enough!"

"I had a roof leak that resulted in a large amount of drywall removal, drying equipment and repairs. Krugh was amazing. They explained the process to me and gave me estimated dates that the work would be done by. The work was done in a professional manner with the guys leaving the space clean when they left for the day. I was very satisfied with the work that was done, plus it was very reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend Krugh. I even had them come back to re-paint the entire interior of my house."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, 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

You do not have to remove lead paint if the surface is not chipping or peeling or if there are no pregnant people or children under the age of six who live in or regularly visit your home. Lead paint is a particular risk for young children whose brains and bodies are not fully developed. Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it’s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home. You can experience lead poisoning by breathing in or ingesting just a small amount of it.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

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.

Hiring a professional for mold and toxic material testing ensures precise identification of harmful substances within a home. Professionals utilize specialized equipment and techniques, providing accurate results that inform proper removal strategies, safeguarding occupant health.
