"Very professional. Talked with Todd the owner. He was very knowledgeable and hesitant to give me an estimate to remove the flooring if tested positive. I pushed the issue and sent him photos and dimensions of the room. He came back with an estimate. The price he gave me for testing and removal wasn’t in my budget. I hired another Pro for testing. The test came back negative for any traces of asbestos."

"As soon as we sent out the need for testing, they had called right away on a Sunday, and the owner was able to book an appointment for the next day for testing! He tested every floor, and expedited the testing for us to ensure we knew the results right away. We are really grateful for how quick this process was and how accommodating their team is. Also, the price is very reasonable! 10/10 would book through Red Diamond Mold again!"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Government regulations such as the EPA and OSHA govern lead removal procedures to ensure health and environmental safety during and after abatement.

You can sell a house with lead paint, but there are several requirements. If you are aware that lead paint exists anywhere in the home, you must disclose that to potential buyers. Required home inspections will often uncover lead paint, especially for older houses where lead paint may still be a problem. If you have taken steps to encapsulate lead, you should provide buyers with full documentation of the project so it won’t cause any problems later on.

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.

According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.

Unfortunately, lead dust does not look different from any other type of dust. You cannot detect it with the naked eye. To determine if you have lead dust in your home, you will need to hire a local company to take a sample from the paint and test it for you in a lab.
