"Gabriel was super responsive and friendly. He was very accommodating with our schedules to coordinate the testing and it all worked out well. Our house is very old and we were concerned that certain modifications that were done over the years fell into the era of asbestos being a common building material so we wanted to have the area tested before ripping a closet out. Gabriel called me as soon as the test results came back to let me know what the deal was (and then obviously sent over the official reports as well). I'd definitely recommend him without reservation."

Lead Testing and Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Lead exposure poses serious health risks, particularly for children, and can be present in paint, pipes, and soil.

“Testing” can start with your senses: Assessing your water’s appearance, taste, and smell can all be good first steps. The best way to know for sure what’s going on with your water is to use a well water testing kit, which can tell you about the specific levels of bacteria, dissolved solids, and hardness of your water with precision. Have a pro test your well water at least once per year.

Avoid disturbing suspected lead-containing materials and follow professional guidance on sample collection.

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.

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
