"I became very sick 2 years ago and finally decovered it was a mold issue in our house. We had a water leak in our basement due to a broken down spouting and mold in the upstairs closets from a water leak in our roof. Bob was our 3rd consultant, who finally gave us the answers we needed to solve our issues. We wanted to do the clean up ourselves so Bob came in as a consultant. Bob was fantastic. He went through the entire house explaining where mold most likely would be found and what to look for in identifying mold., how to increase air circulation to lower humidity levels and recommended we increase insulation in the attic to keep the house cooler. He then explained how to clean the surfaces to remove the mold, He advised what surfaces needed replaced, and when surfaces cannot be feasibly removed, how to seal them. Bob was happy to answer questions i had as we moved through the clean up process. Happy to say my health improved dramatically after the mold was removed. I highly recommend Farsight Management"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

You can expect to pay between $200 and $400 for a lead inspection, where your local lead testing pro will scan surfaces and items with an X-ray fluorescent analyzer. Lead risk assessments are slightly different and run around $800 to $2,000. A pro may find lead during an evaluation, and create a removal strategy.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

If your house was built before 1978 and you’re noticing cracking or peeling paint, a lead paint inspection is a good idea. A lead paint inspection gives you accurate information about the presence, location, and condition of lead-based paint in your home. This information is essential for making informed decisions about lead paint removal to ensure your safety and health and that of your family. If your inspector finds lead, you’ll need to take steps to manage or remove the lead-based paint and comply with laws and regulations.

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
