"Got a great explanation over the phone of how we did not need an expensive Asbestos test done if it was just for piece of mind. I got quotes from $800-$3k from competitors and they came in at $600 including all the tests. Great quality and easy to work with."

"I am so incredibly thankful for the honesty, integrity, timeliness and personal attention to detail that Lamar and his team provided to our family. We were upset and anxious about the damage to our home and the health of our family. We wanted to quickly proceed with our remediation. Lamar was gracious enough to re-arrange his schedule with the consent of his other clients to move forward immediately with our remediation. He was a valuable resource for us to explain the industry standards for care and was able to help give us a detailed overview of what to expect. There were no surprises and his team conducted the work with care and precision. The team communicated well, was respectful and thoroughly cleaned and removed all debris. We were confident in the work performed. We are extremely grateful for Lamar and his team at EcoStrike for their professionalism and overall care of our family. We highly recommend EcoStrike!"

"After the plumber repaired the pipes they then took sections. There were two levels of the house that had water from the drain pipe leakage and then just removed portions of the sheet locks, portions of the . and then brought in big humidifiers and fans to dry. It took up part of the padding under the carpet and dried. In our case it was not bad. We caught it before it got really wet so the carpet had to be replaced. They did take out some of the padding. Basically it is the water removal. One of the employee did not connect the house to sink and the water was all over the floor and rug in a different place. It was an accident. It was not intentional. It was carelessness. It is again like the other employee and this one employee can give the company a bad name. . equipment and I have not seen them."

FAQs for lead testing and removal projects in Canton, GA

Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.

Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:

  • Location

  • Materials and equipment needed

  • Disposal method

  • Accessibility

  • Surface types

  • Repairs needed

  • Labor

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.

Common home surfaces to test for lead include:

  • Walls

  • Windows

  • Doors

  • Molding and trim

  • Railings

A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.

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?
