Q: Do services include remediation recommendations?

• <div><p>Yes, testing professionals typically provide reports with recommendations for safe lead removal.</p></div>

Q: How can you test your well water yourself?

• <div><p>&ldquo;Testing&rdquo; can start with your senses: Assessing your water&rsquo;s appearance, taste, and smell can all be good first steps. The best way to know for sure what&rsquo;s going on with your water is to use a well water testing kit, which can tell you about the specific levels of bacteria, dissolved solids, and hardness of your water with precision. Have a pro test your well water at least once per year.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to remove lead paint?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Do I have to remove lead-based paint?

• <div><p>If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.</p></div>

Q: How much does a lead inspection cost?

• <div><p>You can expect to pay between <b>$200 and $400</b> for a lead inspection, where your <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/lead-testing/">local lead testing pro</a> will scan surfaces and items with an X-ray fluorescent analyzer. Lead risk assessments are slightly different and run around <b>$800 to $2,000</b>. A pro may find lead during an evaluation, and create a removal strategy.</p></div>
