Q: How much does a lead inspection cost?

• <div><p>You can expect to pay between <b>$200 and $400</b> for a lead inspection, where your <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/lead-testing/">local lead testing pro</a> will scan surfaces and items with an X-ray fluorescent analyzer. Lead risk assessments are slightly different and run around <b>$800 to $2,000</b>. A pro may find lead during an evaluation, and create a removal strategy.</p></div>

Q: Why is lead testing necessary?

• <div><p>Lead exposure poses serious health risks, particularly for children, and can be present in paint, pipes, and soil.</p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover lead paint removal?

• <div><p>No. Standard homeowners insurance does not cover any kind of lead remediation, focusing instead on sudden, unpreventable events like fires and theft. Many insurance companies will specifically exclude lead paint removal, since it tends to be an expensive and unavoidable project. The exception is if the lead surface is damaged during a covered event (like a flood) and homeowners insurance pays its replacement.</p></div>

Q: How long does lead dust stay in the air?

• <div><p>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</p></div>

Q: How are samples collected during testing?

• <div><p>Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.</p></div>

Jason worked extremely hard to remove the old paint on our back patio. It was very resistant to both the stripper chemicals used and the power washing efforts. The pointing of the brick on the front patio came out well.
