"We had a high lead test from our pediatrician using the heel prick. We were really concerned and did some home lead tests, but didn't find anything that was clearly responsible for our son's lead level. We found Tonya and gave her a call, and she was incredibly helpful. She offered the exact service we were looking for-- someone to come out and do an investigative look at our house, including various tests and asking us about our habits. But she also strongly encouraged us to get a blood lead test, because the heel prick tests can be faulty. On her recommendation we did that-- and the blood test came back normal! Tonya could have taken our money and preyed on our concerns for our son, but instead she gave us a lot of her time and guidance to help us make a good decision. While I hope I will never have to use her services, I would do it in a minute if we needed to figure out sources of lead!"

Lead Testing and Removal FAQs, answered by experts

You do not have to remove lead paint if the surface is not chipping or peeling or if there are no pregnant people or children under the age of six who live in or regularly visit your home. Lead paint is a particular risk for young children whose brains and bodies are not fully developed. Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it’s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home. You can experience lead poisoning by breathing in or ingesting just a small amount of it.

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

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.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. 

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.
