"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

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

Professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to detect asbestos, radon, and VOCs.

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

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.

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.
