Lead Testing (Paint, Dust, Soil, Water)
Detect toxic lead exposure — protect children and vulnerable occupants
Lead-based paint, dust, or soil contamination is a common hidden hazard, especially in older homes and neighborhoods. Paint chips or degrading surfaces can release lead dust; lead may also leach into water or soil — putting occupants at risk of lead poisoning. That’s particularly dangerous for children, pregnant women, or anyone with prolonged exposure.
Visual inspection alone can never reliably detect lead — the safest and most reliable option for detecting lead is lab testing of samples (paint chips, dust wipes, water, or soil) that can confirm presence and concentration levels.
