"The pro came out to check to see how much mold incursion was occurring in the drywall behind the washer. It was determined to be limited to the surface of the drywall and no further. The pro was through and honest. I would hire them again if needed."

"Very knowledgeable! It's our first time purchasing a manufactured home with well water and he made suggestions on what inspections to get. So glad he did because insurance wanted everything we got. We also got a water testing which was great because it came back with issues we were able to address it quickly."

"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

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.

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.

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?

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.

No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.
