"After mold and some water damage was discovered in our walls, we had some major restoration to do. The place was highly recommended by a neighbor so we called and they offered the services we needed. I called a few other places to get a few estimates and the estimate I received from Fire Water Pros was competitive. I was very impressed by their quality of work and professionalism. They lived up to the highest professional standards, did the work in the stated amount of time and for the stated quote. I’m very grateful that our house is back to normal and the mold and water damage is gone. Just gone! I highly recommend them."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes, testing professionals typically provide reports with recommendations for safe lead removal.

How you test for lead in your water depends on the source of your home's water supply. If you have municipal water, your local water system may offer to test the water for free or may connect you to a lab that will perform the testing.

If you have a private well that provides drinking water, you are responsible for testing it for lead. Look for a lab that is accredited by your state's Department of Environmental Protection to perform the test.

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.

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.

Testing typically costs between $200 and $600, depending on the number of samples and laboratory analysis.
