"Shane was my first contact (via phone) and was very knowledgeable and went above & beyond to answer all my questions. I tend to have pretty good discernment, and I immediately sensed I was dealing with an honest, straightforward company. Shane offered me an appointment 2 days later that s fast! Awesome when you re concerned about mold! Ray came to our house (a several hour drive to the Redding area!), and was prompt & called ahead to be courteous. Total genuine and nice guy (especially bc he s a dog lover ;) He wasn t rushed at all, answered all our questions (we had a lot), and actually said he likes & welcomes questions! After we received our report & invoice, I THOUGHT I was messaging my husband, lol, but I texted Shane: Thumbs up! They did thorough testing, & the price was still what was initially quoted! I highly recommend these guys!!"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Services test for allergens, mold, VOCs, and carbon monoxide levels to ensure a healthy indoor environment.

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

No. Standard homeowners insurance does not cover any kind of lead remediation, focusing instead on sudden, unpreventable events like fires and theft. Many insurance companies will specifically exclude lead paint removal, since it tends to be an expensive and unavoidable project. The exception is if the lead surface is damaged during a covered event (like a flood) and homeowners insurance pays its replacement.
