"After our home sustained significant damage from the recent hurricane, we were faced with the daunting task of finding a restoration company that could handle the process efficiently and affordably. We contacted several businesses, and PHP Restoration stood out immediately. They were not only the most affordable restoration business we found, but they ultimately delivered the absolute best work. The team at PHP Restoration truly exceeded our expectations. They handled everything from initial mold testing to demolition, making what could have been an incredibly stressful process feel easy and straightforward. The quality of the final construction is impeccable. They genuinely went above and beyond to suit all of our specific rebuild needs, making sure our home felt like home again. Another huge part of this positive experience was their communication. Our contact, Julien, was phenomenal. He was readily available to answer all of our questions and address any concerns! Highly recommend"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.

Lead removal is crucial in older homes to eliminate risks of lead poisoning, which can severely affect health, particularly in children, by impacting development and cognitive functions.

Exterior paint contains a higher level of VOCs, which can be dangerous if you’re exposed to it for a long period of time. The good news is that paint’s toxicity reduces significantly once fully dried and cured. Do not keep open exterior paint cans in your home, basement, or garage, exposing your household to harmful chemicals over time.
