Family owned business with over 22 years of experience handling all your Mold Remediation- Mold Testing -

"Mr. Trustworthy looked in my attic and claimed no moisture. Another worker from my A/C company told me there WAS moisture. Although I asked, he never told me what is the black spot on my ceiling. He attempted to cover it up, but I can still see it. He did NOT provide a work order nor bill of sale. My fault, I am 89yrs and should have paid better attention. He also caused some breakage."

Rick Nesselhauf, founder of Dutch's Mold Inspections and Dutch's Home Inspections, has been in the Cleveland-area building industry since the late 1960s and has been performing home and property inspections since the late 1970s. Rick passed the National Home Inspectors Test and takes over 30 hours of continuing education classes each year to stay up to date with new technology and protocols in the mold and indoor air industry. He has earned 8 certifications in Indoor Air, Mold, Allergens, and Remediation, achieving the designation of Master Indoor Environmental Specialist. Rick is also a HUD-approved contractor for mold remediation and mold inspections. In addition to mold remediation, Dutch’s has an excellent track record working with hoarders and their families, as well as cleaning and sanitizing distressed homes. We do not sell any products or “snake oil” remedies. Although capable, we only perform restoration work on a very limited basis, and we are always happy to refer trusted contractors to meet your remodeling needs. For the past nine years, I, Mark Zimerla, have worked alongside Rick, bringing my background in residential and commercial renovations and builds to the company. My experience in construction since 1997—including running my own home remodeling business for over a decade—has allowed me to expand our services and maintain the high standards Rick established. I am now taking over the business to continue his legacy, values, and dedication to quality service. Rick will remain on as our lead tester and lead consultant, ensuring his decades of expertise continue to benefit our customers. Please give us a call today for a no-hassle estimate and consultation at 440-748-4660.

"Went very well and would definitely recommend this company. Thorough, explained every aspect of the job and how to prevent future problems. Project manager on site, all employees pleasant, worked as a team, contained the problem and were readily available for questions, concerns. Work was done on schedule and communication was excellent. I can’t say enough about how great they were. It was a big job and they did what they said they’d do and did it very well. No mess to clean up"

FAQs for lead testing and removal projects in Akron, OH

Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.

Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:

  • Location

  • Materials and equipment needed

  • Disposal method

  • Accessibility

  • Surface types

  • Repairs needed

  • Labor

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

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

A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
