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

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.

Some of the signs that could mean your water is contaminated, such as cloudiness or bubbliness, could also be non-problems that don’t affect your water’s potability. However, if your water smells or tastes strange, it’s a good idea to stop drinking it and test it immediately. If your well water is contaminated, the best way to discover that is to test it.

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.

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.

At-home lead tests can provide accurate results if used correctly, and if the kits are reputable and certified. They vary in sensitivity and methodology, influencing their accuracy. Follow instructions meticulously, ensuring proper sample collection and test execution. While they can detect elevated lead levels, for precise confirmation or if results are concerning, consider professional testing or lab analysis for comprehensive accuracy and guidance on addressing any issues.
