"Work was well done. I had some asbestos tape that was contracted with another company. Teasdale required that to be taken care of before any work done. It was done very quickly. Two guys performed the work. There was gobs of dust removed. It took around three hours, mostly because I had never had the ducts cleaned before. They cleaned up and charged me for the cost of the coupon,bplus the extra air duct. I will use them again for regular maintenance."

"This company has a man in Columbus supervising a building rehab crew.  The man normally does the work in the evenings or weekends for extra monies.  He will call to set up an appointment.  If delayed or needs to reschedule. he will contact you.  He did work efficiently and neatly.  As he sees difficulties or problems that may occur, home owners are consulted.  I kept his personal # to call if I need services again.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

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

Results from professional lead testing are typically available within a few days to a week (2-7 days), depending on factors like laboratory processing times and the volume of samples being analyzed. Expedited services may also be available for urgent situations.

Exterior paint contains a higher level of VOCs, which can be dangerous if you’re exposed to it for a long period of time. The good news is that paint’s toxicity reduces significantly once fully dried and cured. Do not keep open exterior paint cans in your home, basement, or garage, exposing your household to harmful chemicals over time.

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.
