"Edgar showed up on time & got right down to the issue. There was no testing done or a sample taken. He did give an overall scope of the work to be done. Luis sent his Certification, but no invoice was presented. It was decided that the damage done did not warrant any remediation."

"Javon(?) arrived an hour later than promised. "The traffic on 290 is bad". Would have liked a phone call just to let me know that there was going to be a delay. The work performed was top notch. He removed some very heavy stains on the furniture. They now look much better. It's been at least 10yrs or so since the last time these items were cleaned. He spent 2 hours cleaning the 3 items. So $85/hr might seem fairly expensive, however, I really like the newly cleaned furniture. CS"

We provide the service; we sell licenses to carefully selected providers who can qualify for certification in the Rx4MOLD regimen. And we provide training and support to them.

That is not always the case even for the best of our competitors. It may not always be because we are better contractors - there are many excellent firms. But our PROCESS just cannot be beat for price, speed, thoroughness and reliability.. \n\nWe are able to do turnkey work in all areas of building, rebuilding and remodeling with the same skill and expertise that makes us stand out in the Indoor Air Quality business. \n\nThank you for the opportunity to meet you and serve you. \n\nMarc S.

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Houston, TX

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.
