Professional Lead Paint Testing Services

Lead paint testing services and lead testing services are important for keeping your family safe and healthy. Lead can be found in many places, including paint, soil, water, and other materials.

Lead paint testing services are often required for older homes, especially those built before 1978, when lead-based paint was widely used. During a lead paint test, a professional will take samples of paint from surfaces in your home, such as walls, baseboards, and windowsills, and test them for lead content. If lead is found, the professionals can help you determine the best way to safely remove it from your home.

Lead testing services are also available for water, soil, and other materials. Lead can enter your home through contaminated water, soil, or other materials, so it’s important to have these tested if you think you may be exposed to lead. Turn to HomeTeam for lead testing services near you.

Why Lead Paint Testing?

Lead paint testing is an important service for homeowners to consider, as lead-based paint can be highly toxic and dangerous for both children and adults. Lead paint, if intact, poses no health risks, but when it is disturbed through renovation, remodeling, or other activities, it can lead to the release of lead dust and fumes, which can cause serious health problems.

There's a variety of reasons for lead paint testing services. It is important to determine if lead-based paint is present in the home in order to protect the health and safety of the home. Lead poisoning can potentially cause serious health problems, including learning disabilities, developmental delays, and behavior problems, in both children and adults.

The Dangers of Lead Paint

Lead paint was not regulated prior to the late 1970s, when it was determined that lead-based paints create invisible, tasteless, and odorless dust when it deteriorates, chips, or peels. This lead dust can mix with the soil around your home and possibly be ingested by children and pets while they play. Even if your home has been remodeled, risks can still be present, as lead dust and chips can be disbursed in the building during construction.
