"

Lowest estimate and passed the lead test and received the certification.  I would have given then all A's but they broke a water pipe on a Friday afternoon that cost me 350$ to fix and also tore apart clothes dryer duct work.

"I can't say enough positive things about Jon and his team. They were incredibly professional and all-around great people. After meeting with Jon and his employees, I felt comfortable enough to leave them alone in my house while I went back to work. When I came home, the house was still clean & it was as if no one was even there. The work performed in the attic was also unbelievable - the mold was removed completely & the ceiling boards looked brand new. If you are looking for reliable, punctual, and trustworthy people to solve any mold issues, I highly recommend Indoor Environmental!"

"After initial conversations with John, I hired ASAP to complete my lead inspection for a recent property that I acquired. John was able to answer all my questions and address all of my concerns. Chris came out to complete the inspection within 48 hrs of my request. He was very thorough in his report, which I had in my hands in less than two days. I was able to hand over the report to the removal company that I ended up hiring. When the job was complete, Chris came back out within 48 hrs of the request to complete the reinspection and tests. I have no concerns with ASAP and would definitely use them in the future. They were very quick to respond to me and address all of my questions and concerns."

"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 questions, answered by experts

When a surface that contains lead dust is disturbed, the dust can float about in the air for roughly an hour before settling again. Since you cannot see the dust, it is important always to wear protective gear when working with any materials that may contain lead paint and to keep children, pets, and others away from the area for as long as possible

If lead is detected in a property, steps should include arranging for professional removal or containment, notifying all occupants, and implementing interim safety measures to reduce exposure.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. 

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.
