"This company is great at what they do. Used them twice. They helped removed asbestos tile and mold from my basement. They were quick, clean and most importantly got rid of the "bad stuff". They did such a good job the first time that I called them again when i unfortunately found mold in my crawl space. Both times eradicated all traces of mold. Would gladly use them a third time if needed!"

"I highly recommend Connecticut Lead Services. I needed their help for an inspection. They were referred by a friend that used them in the past. They returned my initial call right away and scheduled an inspection on the next business day, they actually shuffled their schedule to help me. Dave and Brian did a thorough job and educated me on how lead was used in older houses. They were really patient with my questions and took their time to do an excellent job. It is clear that their first concern was safety of the people in the house. I will definitely call them for my next project."

"Vernon responded immediately (in the evening) to the Home Advisor inquiry and he was available for lead paint testing and provided a report quickly for a city building permit. I hired him again for follow-up asbestos testing. I am thankful for his responsiveness (the permit process has been challenging) and feel confident that he is advising me on what is needed and not creating extra or unneeded work. Highly recommend."

"Vernon did an inspection for lead and asbestos on a home we are purchasing in Kingston that we are planning to renovate extensively and live in with two small children. Both lead and asbestos posed risks that could be dealbreakers for us depending on exact specifics of location and extent. My husband is an architect who has to deal with these kinds of inspections routinely while rehabbing old buildings. We were super crunched for time, meeting with multiple inspectors and contractors at the home in a single day. We needed someone who could just do the inspection thoughtfully and make decisions about what was necessary vs. unnecessary without us having to micromanage or weigh in on every sample. Vernon was just the ticket. We had discussed prior to the inspection that we wanted to ideally get assurances about the materials behind wood paneling being lead free but obviously we couldn’t take the paneling down to get readings on a house we don’t yet own. He assured us that using the XLR device would give us some certainty about lead content in what whatever was behind. Vernon was able to squeeze us into his schedule quickly. He showed up and did almost two hundred readings with the XLR device, meticulously tracked in a report he sent a few days later. We got a lot of positives for both lead and asbestos. He really thought through what was necessary and what would give us inconclusive information, so he saved us a little money by only doing readings that were actionable. His quick turnaround and methodically documentation helped us meet the deadline to submit the report to the sellers. It gives us great leverage with this info to negotiate and come to a reasonable division of financial responsibility for the repair work necessary to make this home safe for future occupants during the final weeks before closing. This is saving us a huge potential liability and surprise bill down the line. This is a seller’s market and one of the top ways buyers are getting the short end of the stick is by having to assume risks that sellers push them to abandon inspecting with the threat of just going with another bid. Acting quickly with good hired experts like Vernon buys you back a better position in a tough market. Well worth every penny."

"Needed paint lead tested and removed. Was a pleasure to do business with. Very straightforward and honest. Gave an accurate quote (which was less than the other quotes I got) and completed the work quickly and left the area cleaner than before work was started. Would hire again if needed in the future."

"Excellent value!! Valley Inspection Services was over a thousand dollars than another quote I received, yes you read that right. The samples were sent to an independent lab that probably multiple inspection services use so no lack of quality of test results. Service was quick. Willie was honest and trustworthy and I mention this only because he is new to having his own company and it shows a bit. He is licensed with the state and they have him in their system. The report I received does what I needed it to do. The only hurdle was a a smoother payment and email process would be nice. Other than that, support this guy so he can grow his company. Great value and great service."

"This crew is amazing!  My uncle needed to have a tree removed from our
backyard... I'm talking HUGE with many of the biggest limbs leaning over
our neighbors house.  He came over right away and gave a reasonably
priced quote.  I discussed it with my uncle and decided to go ahead and
use his services.  He removed this tree in two days, even with it being
some of the hottest days its been in a while!  His whole crew was
extremely kind and they made sure to clean up very carefully after they
were done. They even took a look at my broken car when they
noticed me filling my radiator with water!  We were thrilled with the
services this crew gave us and would recommend them to anyone.

"We fixed the plexiglass overhang above our front door. It required the removal of existing materials and installation of new plexiglass + flashing. This sounds easy but took a few days to complete. The seal however was not tight enough and water still dripped following the repair. But Twin Oaks came out the very next day and resolved the issue. Workers were friendly and from what I can tell did a nice job. They later returned (the next warm day) to repair a damaged garage panel which they were able to do in a day. Other than leaving some debris in the side yard (not a lot), they were good to work with .. nice folks."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

If your house was built before 1978 and you’re noticing cracking or peeling paint, a lead paint inspection is a good idea. A lead paint inspection gives you accurate information about the presence, location, and condition of lead-based paint in your home. This information is essential for making informed decisions about lead paint removal to ensure your safety and health and that of your family. If your inspector finds lead, you’ll need to take steps to manage or remove the lead-based paint and comply with laws and regulations.

Several different measurements may be used to determine the amount of lead in water. The most common unit of measurement is micrograms per liter (µg/L), which is the same as parts per billion. Another measurement is milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is the same as parts per million.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

You can expect to pay between $200 and $400 for a lead inspection, where your local lead testing pro will scan surfaces and items with an X-ray fluorescent analyzer. Lead risk assessments are slightly different and run around $800 to $2,000. A pro may find lead during an evaluation, and create a removal strategy.

Lead testing in residential properties involves collecting samples from paint, dust, soil, or plumbing and analyzing them in certified laboratories to accurately identify lead levels.
