"We had a sewer break under our concrete slab, under family room flooring. When flooring was removed, asbestos tile was discovered (house built in 1960). Henry, Jennifer and the crew at Boston Environmental provided me with an estimate quickly and once I accepted, they were at my house at 8 am the next morning. This was a small job for them, but a huge impediment to the process of getting my house disaster resolved. I would highly recommend them to anyone going through an unfortunate situation like me."

"The ASAP team was fantastic! They were very responsive and immediately came out to correct the emergency without hesitation. We then worked with the team on a remediation plan to dry the basement out, remove any damaged drywall and replace with new drywall. They left the area ready to re-paint. Was pleased with the team and the service every step of the way."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Lead testing in residential properties involves collecting samples from paint, dust, soil, or plumbing and analyzing them in certified laboratories to accurately identify lead levels.

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

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.
