"Roman and his workers were a pleasure to deal with. I would recommend them to anyone who needs this done. They showed up on time and were meticulous with their set up for asbestos removal on my garage. They were very professional and thoroughly cleaned up the entire work space. Roman was often in contact through email step by step through the process. He also filed the paperwork correctly and posted and labeled the area according to the regulations. An inspector showed up and everything that was put in place was up to par."

"BP Alliance was very professional and insightful in doing what was required by the city in a lead abatement. Mr. Booker answered questions and concerns in ways I could understand a support. Having a personal meeting with all the major parties allowed for a smooth preparation, abatement and re-entry into the space. All the inspections, test and follow through with the city were arranged and done in a timely fashion."

"ECS came to our rescue when no one else was able to. It was shortly after Ida had rolled through Mamaroneck and the lower level of our house had flooded. We had wonderful friends and family help us empty out all of our waterlogged belongings and get the contents ready for removal by the town but we were left with an empty shell of a basement and garage - but for the disgusting mold that had started to grow by the day after the storm. We called around to find mold remediation services that would be able to help us and we were disappointed several times. One company even came and did a walk through to write up a report and never sent an estimate! Late one night I was googling to try and find another company and I was guided to Angi/Home Advisor. Never having used it before I was a little skeptical but I figured I had nothing to lose. I filled out the information about the job we needed done and immediately got one hit - with a 5 star rating I must add! ECS Inc. was our match. I figured I’d call them the next day because it was already well after 9pm. Well, the owner of the company called me 20min after the company name came up. He arranged to do a walkthrough the next day, got us an estimate within 24h and started work with a 5 person crew within 48h. The team was amazingly professional. The work they did was stellar and they were done in half the time the other companies had quoted us. The space was spotless from floor to ceiling with not one whiff of mold to be sniffed! If you ever need work like this done on your home, I recommend this company without reservation. We are so grateful we found them when we did."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY kits are available for basic air quality testing, but professional services provide more comprehensive results and recommendations. While a DIY kit may seem cost-effective, a professional assessment is more thorough. Inspectors are better equipped to catch all pollutants and hazards, and you'll still need a professional to verify and act on DIY test results. Furthermore, some kits don't test for certain pollutants or only detect their presence without measuring specific levels (like mold spores). It's generally better to opt for a detailed professional assessment.

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.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. 

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.
