Homes built before 1978 often carry layers of lead-based paint. Our surface screening checks selected painted surfaces using EPA-recognized test methods, so you can plan renovations and protect your family with real information instead of guesses.
We screen selected painted surfaces, typically the areas most likely to be disturbed or touched: window sills and sashes, doors and frames, trim, and high-wear walls. Results indicate whether a lead reaction was present at each tested location, with written documentation typically the next business day.
Screening is quick, minimally invasive, and turns an unknown into a plan. It pairs naturally with a home inspection on any pre-1978 property.
If the home predates 1978, assume lead paint is possible. A screening tells you whether selected surfaces show it, before you commit.
Cutting, sanding, and demolition disturb paint layers. Knowing what's there first means the work can be done safely and legally.
Lead exposure risk is highest for young children. Screening the surfaces they touch most is a simple, protective step.
No. We screen selected surfaces, and results apply to the locations tested. Lead can be present in untested or concealed areas, which your report explains clearly.
It becomes information you can act on: manage intact paint in place, plan renovation-safe practices, or bring in a licensed lead professional for a full risk assessment.
Surface screening results are qualitative, and written documentation is typically provided by the next business day.
