Q: Can you sell a house with lead paint?

• <div><p>You can sell a house with lead paint, but there are several requirements. If you are aware that lead paint exists anywhere in the home, you must disclose that to potential buyers. Required home inspections will often uncover lead paint, especially for older houses where lead paint may still be a problem. If you have taken steps to encapsulate lead, you should provide buyers with full documentation of the project so it won&rsquo;t cause any problems later on.</p></div>

Q: How are samples collected during testing?

• <div><p>Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.</p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover lead paint removal?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Great! Andy was awesome and his team was on time and did great work. He would not let me pay him until the work was finished and tested and I was 100% happy with everything. Good person as well. We had a pretty complicated job as well given we had to put in an additional electric box.

He came out and installed a cable jack for us. We were under the impression we could test it using a cable box from another room and it is not working. I put in two calls for him to come back out and have not heard back.

The gentleman was nice and provided the mold results in a timely fashion. They were reasonably priced and answered my phone calls. The test was a mold inspection of the home and it was a very easy process. Would recommend them and use them again if needed.
