The exception is if the lead surface is damaged during a covered event (like a flood) and homeowners insurance pays its replacement.

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.

Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it’s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home.
