"I did not trust two other companies who had given me estimates. I had heard good things about AdvantaClean, and when I met them, I knew they were the company I wanted to work with. They have not only lived up to their reputation, but they have exceeded my expectations. Communication is especially great; they help me understand things I have no knowledge about, they are great with keeping me updated on progress, and if I have questions, they are easy to get in touch with. I am so glad I took the time and waited for the right company. I’m very satisfied with the work, and especially how they do business. I highly recommend AdvantaClean."

Lead Testing and Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.

At-home lead tests can provide accurate results if used correctly, and if the kits are reputable and certified. They vary in sensitivity and methodology, influencing their accuracy. Follow instructions meticulously, ensuring proper sample collection and test execution. While they can detect elevated lead levels, for precise confirmation or if results are concerning, consider professional testing or lab analysis for comprehensive accuracy and guidance on addressing any issues.

Unfortunately, lead dust does not look different from any other type of dust. You cannot detect it with the naked eye. To determine if you have lead dust in your home, you will need to hire a local company to take a sample from the paint and test it for you in a lab.

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.
