"We contacted Sherlock's because my daughter tested high for lead.  We rushed to find a company to help us identify where the contamination was coming from.  I found Sherlock through google and had the best first impression of them than from the other companies I called.

Sally explained the process of lead testing our home clearly.  They performed the lead test less than 2 days from when I called them.  Sally and Chuck came to our home together and tested inside and out for 2 hours.  In the end, we found no source of lead contamination at our home (meaning it must be coming from an outside source).  They provided a thorough report and the price was reasonable.  They are also easy to get a hold of.

Since having them perform the testing, I have heard other positive reviews of this company.  And I will recommend them to anyone who is unfortunate enough to have a poor blood lead score.

I will also never buy a new home without them inspecting it first."

"It was apparent they were very skilled. They quickly dropped the huge limbs without a scratch on the house, fence or sheds surrounding the tree. They arrived on time and cleaned the area to my satisfaction before leaving. And they were competetively priced! I can't say enough good things about this company."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Professional lead removal involves identifying and safely removing or encapsulating lead-based paints and materials, using specialized equipment, and following strict safety procedures to minimize exposure and contamination.

Iron sediments from rusty pipes are not likely to cause health problems. While a glass of yellow-hued water is off-putting, it is generally safe to drink yellow water in the short term. But you certainly want to address this problem. In the meantime, switching to bottled water until the yellow water issue is resolved is a good idea. 

Structural problems with the foundation or roof, water damage, and significant plumbing or electrical issues are all considered major red flags in a home inspection. Of these, a structural problem related to the foundation is often the most severe. Foundation repairs are typically the most expensive and intrusive to carry out, averaging around $5,000 but sometimes reaching up to $16,000. Because these problems can pose safety risks and be costly to fix, you should ask your inspector detailed questions about any identified issues. You will need to carefully consider how major problems affect what you’re willing to pay for the home, or if you want to proceed with the sale at all.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

Lead testing in residential properties involves collecting samples from paint, dust, soil, or plumbing and analyzing them in certified laboratories to accurately identify lead levels.
