"I used AAA lead professional for asbestos testing and remediation. Josephs company was professional and demonstrated a lot of experience. AAA tested my home, found asbestos and did the remediation as quoted in a timely fashion. I highly recommend Joseph and his team at AAA."

"They were on time, professional and very knowledgeable about their craft. I learned quite a bit about the testing process. Due to the busy schedule, Jay came out as well. I learned why people don't just scrape off old paint before repainting in older homes. It's more expensive to do it the right way. I considered it more of a diy job, but Jay helped me realize the harm I would be doing. Thanks SBP solutions!"

"Montclair township has a requirement for landlords to perform a visual lead paint inspection on a regular basis. Christian did this work for me, walking through my apartments and letting me know what spots needed to be touched up with paint. Then he provides a certificate to send to the town. Christian is communicative, reliable, prompt, and professional. He turned the certificate around really fast, too. I can’t recommend him more highly to anyone who needs environmental inspections in their home."

"They were great! I was able to schedule online, which made choosing a date and time simple. They showed up on-time, worked quickly and I had the results in no time. I had questions afterward regarding uploading the results and they were happy to give me the information. Highly recommend their services!"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.

Common home surfaces to test for lead include:

  • Walls

  • Windows

  • Doors

  • Molding and trim

  • Railings

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.

Yes, testing professionals typically provide reports with recommendations for safe lead removal.

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.
