"Gina Raspa was wonderful to work with.  She responded within 24 hours to my email and she performed the testing within 4 days of my first contact.  Everything went smoothly thanks to her willingness to respond as soon as possible.
The news was much better than we expected and Gina gave me 3 recommendations for companies who could successfully perform the clean-up.
Thanks to Gina, we were able to move the family into the house without fear of future health issues.
I give Gina and her company the highest ratings because she earned them.

"Inspector responded promptly to my service request. Came on time and was very descriptive while addressing our concerns. He even provided some information on seperate home items that were not part of the service we requested. Also, very respectful of our property. (He actually took his shoes off because we had new carpet.) WIll use again. Thank you!"

"To be up front I had to cancel my appointment due to my landlord letting me out of my lease. However, EVERY single time I contacted this persons they were not only extremely helpful, but professional as well. The way they provided information was up front and to the point. they were very educated with lead inspections and knew what to look for when I told them what my landlord was doing. They are well educated and informed, as well as up to date. Contractor that came out to the house from another company to assess work being donehad been doing lead based renovations for 30 years. He was surprised at how much a knew about everything, it was all thanks to thus company. I knew what to look for and knew what to ask due to how helpful this company is. I highly recommend taking their call first, if you aren't satisfied, go ahead and call someone else, I promise you will be back to talk to Chesapeake Lead Paint Inspections. btw they can do XRF scans too."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. 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.

DIY lead testing kits are available, but they often lack the accuracy and reliability of professional services. Professional testing is recommended for more accurate results, as properly certified testers can provide a thorough analysis, clear recommendations, and the necessary legal documentation if remediation is required.

Several different measurements may be used to determine the amount of lead in water. The most common unit of measurement is micrograms per liter (µg/L), which is the same as parts per billion. Another measurement is milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is the same as parts per million.
