Hi! My name is Brent Yocum and I am a certified inspector in the state of Pennsylvania."What is a certified inspector?" you may ask. A certified inspector meets all the requirements the state of PA has outlined for home inspectors. Some of these are maintaining specified limits for E&O (errors and omissions) and liability insurance, being a member of a nationally recognized Home Inspection association, a written report, participation in 100 or more inspections,etc. To learn more, contact the Attorney Generals office (under the state listing in the red or blue section of your Yellow Pages) and request a copy of Act 114. Or see me at the Better Business Bureau (www.mybbb.org). I can offer you a wide variety of one-stop Home Inspection, real estate (and non-real estate) inspections and Home Environmental testing, including water, asbestos, lead, mold, etc. I will give YOU personalized service and the utmost attention. After all, YOU are my client, and thats how it should be!\n\n Brent

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

Lead paint test kits are not always accurate. Several factors can play into why a test kit provides an inaccurate result such as user error, sample viability, the age and condition of the paint, or difficulty interpreting the final result. If you are looking for 100% accuracy, hiring a professional lead paint test is the only way to get that piece of mind.

Lead removal is crucial in older homes to eliminate risks of lead poisoning, which can severely affect health, particularly in children, by impacting development and cognitive functions.

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.
