Exposure to lead can cause lead poisoning. Even though the federal government banned use of lead-based paint, it is still present in millions of homes today. If your home was built before 1978, there’s likely lead-based paint inside. Lead paint isn’t always easy to spot since it can be hidden under layers of newer paint.
Hiring a DSHS licensed lead inspector, like us, is the best way to determine if lead paint is present in your home. We use portable X-ray fluorescence analyzers to test for and measure lead in paint. Our lead paint inspection will determine the severity and location of any lead-based paint hazards. Then we’ll identify the most cost efficient and convenient abatement procedure.
