"It all went wonderfully. We'd been lead to think that releasing would be horrible, but MKJ made it painless. They got everything done on time (tenants were expecting a baby) and passed re-inspection on first attempt. Extremely honest guy; saved us money in ways we wouldn't have thought of without compromising on outcome. Tenants are very happy with the new windows, too! Not as much communication as my husband is used to (e.g. no blow by blow updates) and not a particularly "slick" operation, but good solid trustworthy work for a very reasonable price. Glad we'll never have to delead again, but if we did it would be with MKJ!"

"We were selling our house and the radon test came back high so we needed quick and effective service. The appointment was scheduled a week from our call. The technician arrived on time and helped identify the best location for the system that was both effective and as aesthetic as possible. The install went quickly and he took the time to explain how it worked and what we should look for in terms of monitoring and maintenance. Overall, it was a good experience."

Lead Testing and Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

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.

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.

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