We are licensed by the State of Texas for Lead-based Paint and Mold! We are an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Lead Safe Certified firm which enables us to perform renovation and remodeling activities in homes which may contain lead-based paint.

We are also a Texas Lead Firm employing Lead Inspectors, Lead Risk Assessors, and Lead Abatement Supervisors. If you are concerned about potential lead hazards in your home, we can perform a Lead Inspection, Lead Risk Assessment, and/or Lead Clearance Testing. We are licensed to perform Commercial and Residential Lead Abatement. Additionally, we can perform Mold Assessments and Mold Remediation. If you are concerned about potential Mold hazards in your home, or need a Certificate of Mold Damage Remediation (CMDR), please call us for details. We are licensed to perform Commercial and Residential Mold Remediation.

"I just had the best experience with Steve Veedell and want to recommend him strongly. I asked my husband to refinish our tub this weekend and completely didn't think about the fact that our home was built in 1945 and there may be lead in the tub. After he sanded the tub and painted it, I realized I couldn't bring the baby back home without knowing whether we had just kicked up some lead dust or not! Steve had quoted some remodeling services for me before and I remembered he had tested every area of the job thoroughly for lead due to the age of my home. I called him up this morning and he was over at my home within the hour to test the tub (which tested negative for lead, thank goodness)! He didn't charge me a dime for his services today. He is a great guy to work with so if you also have a home that is older, give him a call before doing any remodeling to check for lead, especially if you have littles in the home as I do! He does a lot of services including mold remediation, too."

When the insurance company sends an insurance adjuster to represent them, ... ONE QUESTION ... who is representing you?


"Plumber was called by apartment complex when our underground crews hit gas and water. Our crews exposed with a mini excavator both pipes to be repaired. Plumber repaired both and sent us an invoice for each. I would have to say I was shocked. We have used numerous plumbers over the years but never one that was so expensive. When we inquired about the bill and asked for detail (hours and material used) he just became very belligerent and refused to offer more info. You would think when they would charge you $500 just for rolling out on an emergency they could at least spell emergency. Wow. Good luck if you choose this company."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

The four types of hazardous waste are toxic, corrosive, flammable, and reactive. These four types fall under the EPA’s designation of characteristic hazardous waste. The EPA also categorizes hazardous wastes as listed, which includes specific byproducts or unused chemicals from manufacturing and industrial processes, universal waste, including bulbs, mercury, pesticides, batteries, and various other common substances, and mixed waste containing radioactive material.

Lead testing prior to purchasing a property ensures that the new owners are informed about potential hazards, prevents health risks associated with lead poisoning, and facilitates timely remediation.

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.

You can expect to pay between $200 and $400 for a lead inspection, where your local lead testing pro will scan surfaces and items with an X-ray fluorescent analyzer. Lead risk assessments are slightly different and run around $800 to $2,000. A pro may find lead during an evaluation, and create a removal strategy.
