Lead Inspections
Protect Your Family. Protect Your Property.
If your home or building was built before December 31, 1977, there's a strong chance that lead-based paint was used somewhere in its construction. While once considered a durable option, we now know that lead-based paint poses serious health risks-especially to young children. Even minor exposure can lead to irreversible brain damage.
Whether you're living in, purchasing, or remodeling a home built before 1978, a lead inspection is a critical step in protecting the people who matter most.
What Is a Lead Inspection?
A lead inspection identifies the presence of lead-based paint in homes or buildings-most commonly found in structures built before 1978. When these surfaces are disturbed, such as during a remodel or renovation, lead dust and particles can be released into the air. If inhaled or ingested-especially by children-the effects can be severe and permanent.
A professional lead inspection helps uncover these hidden hazards so you can make informed, safe decisions.
What's Included in Our Lead Inspection Service?
Our lead inspection process includes:
- Visual Assessment - We begin with a thorough inspection of painted surfaces in and around the home, looking for signs of deterioration or areas likely to contain lead-based paint.
- Testing - If potential lead is suspected, we work with you to determine the best next step:
- EPA-Approved Onsite Testing using 3M LeadCheck swabs
- Accredited Laboratory Analysis for more comprehensive evaluation
You'll receive a clear explanation of your options so you can choose the level of testing that fits your needs and situation.
Our Process
- Initial Walkthrough - We visually assess all painted areas, including windows, doors, baseboards, and trim.
- Sample Collection or Onsite Testing - Based on findings and your preferences, we either collect samples for lab testing or perform immediate onsite testing.
- Report and Recommendations - You'll get a detailed, easy-to-understand report outlining the results and any next steps to take.
Why You May Need a Lead Inspection
You may need this service if:
- You're planning renovations on a pre-1978 home
- You're buying or selling a home built before 1978
- You're a contractor working in older structures
