"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

Some causes of brown well water—like excess tannins or dissolved iron—don’t pose a health risk. In other cases, harmful bacteria might be the culprit. If your well water has suddenly turned brown, it’s a good idea to use a home water test kit to get a better sense of what’s going on with your water. Consider calling a professional for an expert opinion before drinking the water and hoping for the best.

DIY lead testing kits are available, but they often lack the accuracy and reliability of professional services. Professional testing is recommended for more accurate results, as properly certified testers can provide a thorough analysis, clear recommendations, and the necessary legal documentation if remediation is required.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

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

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.
