"Ed was great and came out and tested for mold in several areas of my house and did not find any. He was very thorough and professional. He did not charge me, even though I offered to pay him, as his company does not charge for initial inspections. Side note - I was able to set up the appointment over the holidays while he was on a short vacation for the holidays. I would definitely recommend this company for mold inspection/testing."

"Steve is an absolute professional. This was my wife and Iâ s first home purchase, and to say we were overwhelmed would be an understatement. Steve took his time to explain the process, what we should be doing, when he should be involved, and communicated everything he found in person and in writing. He made sure we understood what needed to be done, and was so thorough in his examination of everything. Superb attention to detail! I would recommend Steve and Easy Home Inspections to anyone and everyone, and without worry as I know Steve would treat them all the same as he has treated us. Amazing work Steve, Easy Home Inspections truly lives up to its name!"

"The job went well and it ran over $3000 but I could not avoid it due to age of home. Was an asbestos abatement job due after a water leak occurred. Insurance covered most of the cost. Servicer was better that others than I considered."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

If lead is detected in a property, steps should include arranging for professional removal or containment, notifying all occupants, and implementing interim safety measures to reduce exposure.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

At-home lead tests can provide accurate results if used correctly, and if the kits are reputable and certified. They vary in sensitivity and methodology, influencing their accuracy. Follow instructions meticulously, ensuring proper sample collection and test execution. While they can detect elevated lead levels, for precise confirmation or if results are concerning, consider professional testing or lab analysis for comprehensive accuracy and guidance on addressing any issues.

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
