"   Gary gave me a bid that I thought was very competitive.  In fact it was lower than I expected so I enlarged the building from 600 to 700 sq ft.  
   My wife and I were out of town during much of the construction.  Gary kept me fully informed of progress with pictures.  He made several very good suggestions as to little changes in the plans that have turned out to be very useful.  When he had questions, he sent me pictures so we could decide how to proceed.
   He finished in slightly less than the time allowed in the schedule.
   The final price was slightly more than the bid, and I could see that each of the additional price items was exactly what we had agreed to when the changes were made.
   My wife and I are delighted with the art studio, and to this day, we count Gary as one of our best friends in Albuquerque.  We have highly recommended him to our friends that want any remodeling, or new construction."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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

Exterior paint contains a higher level of VOCs, which can be dangerous if you’re exposed to it for a long period of time. The good news is that paint’s toxicity reduces significantly once fully dried and cured. Do not keep open exterior paint cans in your home, basement, or garage, exposing your household to harmful chemicals over time.

The average cost of a lead paint inspection is about $600, but it can cost as low as $150 or as much as $800, depending on the size of the area, geographic location, and the inspection methods. Some of the most common lead paint inspection methods include:

  • Visual inspection: $150–$400

  • Paint sampling: $200–$600

  • X-ray fluorescence (XRF): $250–$700

  • Risk assessment: $300–$800

Government regulations such as the EPA and OSHA govern lead removal procedures to ensure health and environmental safety during and after abatement.

Determining if your water main contains lead involves a few steps. First, check the age of your property, as homes built before the 1980s might have lead pipes. Contact your water utility company for information on your service line material. Then, you can hire a professional plumber to conduct an inspection or use a lead testing kit to analyze water from the main line.
