"Jeremy is very responsive to the customer and very earnest in his work. We received a complete and thorough written report. The report showed all of the locations he'd tested, along with the lead levels observed at each spot in the interior and exterior of the house. At the time we received services, the inspection was $700 for a 2600 sq. ft. (4BR/3BA) house. If lead is found, he can do a separate assessment, which would have been $150 for us. This is some of the best money we've ever spent!"

"Paul Davis was BEST! They did such a great job at my office I hired them to do my personal residence and my 2 rental properties. They do the best job on floors I have ever seen. Their people are very polite and do a great job. I have also refered them to a friend that had a water heater burst. Paul Davis was able to save my friends thousands of dollars and got them back to normal much faster than expected. Paul Daivis is the best in this town."

"We spoke with Terry and he actually answered most of the questions over the phone (for free). We could have stopped there but just to be sure asked them to come over and do the test. They got the results back to us quicker than expected and they were exactly what they anticipated. He provided excellent advice on how to deal with the problem. Note that Heaton environmental only performs testing, which allows them to provide unbiased advice. Terry was a real pleasure to work with and I would definitely use his services again."

"They did a very good job with the repair of the smoke damage. They were however supposed to replace any personal items that they damaged, and they had insurance to cover that. However, after several calls they still have not replaced  any the items that they broke."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Calhoun, GA

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.
