Lead Testing for Homes and Buildings
Lead testing is a critical step in ensuring the safety and health of your home or business environment. Lead can be present in paint, dust, soil, and water—often without visible signs—posing serious risks to both children and adults. Professional lead testing services provide accurate, lab-verified results and help identify potential exposure points. By relying on certified technicians, you gain the peace of mind that your space meets current safety standards and regulatory requirements.
🏠 Residential Lead Paint Testing
Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint, which can flake and become a health hazard. Professionals use XRF analyzers or lab sampling to detect lead in painted surfaces. Accurate testing helps you make informed decisions before renovation or remodeling. It’s a crucial step in creating a safe living space for your family.
💧 Lead in Water Testing
Lead can enter drinking water through old plumbing fixtures and pipes. Certified water sampling helps identify whether your home's tap water contains harmful levels of lead. Experts collect and test water using EPA-recommended methods. Results guide any needed pipe replacements or filtration solutions.
🌱 Soil Lead Testing
Soil near older homes, roadways, or industrial areas can contain dangerous levels of lead. Testing your soil is especially important before gardening or landscaping. Professionals collect samples from multiple points and analyze them for contamination. This helps reduce exposure risks for both humans and pets.
🧹 Lead Dust Sampling
Dust from deteriorating lead-based paint can settle on floors and surfaces, creating invisible health hazards. Technicians use specialized wipes to test for lead dust in high-contact areas. This service is especially useful in households with young children. It helps ensure your cleaning practices are effective and your environment stays safe.
🏫 Commercial and School Lead Inspections
Public and commercial buildings, including schools and daycare centers, must comply with strict lead safety standards. Comprehensive inspections cover all potential lead sources, from paint to plumbing. Technicians create detailed reports that support regulatory compliance. These services are key to protecting occupants and avoiding legal issues.
🧪 Pre-Renovation Lead Testing
Before starting any demolition or remodeling project, it’s essential to test for lead. Disturbing materials without proper precautions can spread hazardous particles. Pre-renovation testing helps plan safe work procedures and avoid contamination. It also supports compliance with EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) rules.
