"Ed was great and came out and tested for mold in several areas of my house and did not find any. He was very thorough and professional. He did not charge me, even though I offered to pay him, as his company does not charge for initial inspections. Side note - I was able to set up the appointment over the holidays while he was on a short vacation for the holidays. I would definitely recommend this company for mold inspection/testing."

"I called them on Monday morning. An appointment was set up for Tuesday am. Todd was quick to respond to my questions an was very accommodating. The thorough inspection was performed on time and was as thorough as though we had been there. The verbal report was given over the phone. We later received our emailed report as promised."

"Jeremy's service was exceptional. He called us back very quickly and was able to explain clearly over the phone the difference between the lead inspection and risk assessment, so that we could make a decision on how we wanted to move forward. We were working under a short due-diligence time frame (purchasing a house), and he was able to come out very quickly. I walked around with him as he did all the testing, and he explained everything as we went along. Afterward, he sent us a written report detailing the locations of lead paint in the house and analyzing the samples he took for lead hazards. If you have any concerns about lead in your house, he is THE PERSON to call. He is extremely knowledgeable, and I learned so much just from observing him doing the testing. These services are well worth the money as they give you all the information you need about the dangers of lead paint in your house. Jeremy also gave me a list of contractors who could give us options for dealing with the lead paint, and everyone he referred me to was extremely responsive.  <br /> Jeremy was the best person we worked with during our home buying process. I highly highly highly recommend him. <br />"

"We have used Remediation 911 a few times and will continue to use them for any future needs. They tested our condo as part of the inspection process, as well as tested our daughters apartment when we suspected mold. They are very knowledgable and explained the entire process as well as the reports. I highly recommend using Remediation 911, we refer them to our friends and family. This is a family owned company you can trust."

"Although I didn't end up using their services I was very impressed with the individual I had spoken to on the phone. I had reached out to a ton of so called mold and quot;expertsand quot; I found on Angieslist and almost all of them tried to immediately sell me thousands of dollars of mold remediation and sanitation work. <br /> The consultant I spoke to on the phone (Josh I think was his name) spent a good 45 minutes talking to me on the phone late one evening answering all my questions and concerns about mold assessment and IAQ. He personally volunteered himself to come out and perform the inspection himself. Very professional, patient and knowledgeable and I didn't get the immediate feeling that he was trying to scam me like very other guy out there. <br /> Only reason I didn't use them is because they cost about $200 more than the most positively reviewed mold assessor on Angieslist. <br />"

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Arcadia, FL

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a strong chance it contains lead-based paint. Many pre-1980 houses also contain lead in their plumbing and decorative materials, so age alone is a significant red flag. Older homes near industrial areas face an even higher risk. Because you can’t confirm lead by sight, scheduling a test is the safest way to protect your family.

In older houses, lead can lurk in painted trim, window sashes, soil around the foundation, plumbing pipes, and even vintage hardware. The metal is toxic, and children and pregnant women are most at risk. Exposure can trigger developmental delays, learning problems, and organ damage. Because the EPA links even low levels to serious health effects, test every suspected surface and address any hazards right away.

A positive test means lead is present somewhere you can touch, breathe, or disturb. The next step is a full risk assessment to map exactly where the hazard lies and outline the safest fix: encapsulation, enclosure, or full removal. Repairs start at $1,000 but can exceed $10,000 for complete elimination, so act quickly and hire certified pros to keep your family safe.

EPA lead certification proves that inspectors, risk assessors, and abatement contractors follow federal safety rules under the Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Program. The credential costs an average of $300, and certified professionals can legally test, contain, or remove lead hazards. Hiring a certified pro protects you from fines and ensures the work meets strict health standards.

Lead-based paint looks no different from any other paint, so you can’t identify it by color or sheen. Even flawless walls may hide it. If paint starts chipping, flaking, or peeling, schedule a professional test right away. Only laboratory-grade testing confirms lead and guides the safest fix for your home.
