"They work was performed in a timely fashion as proposed.  When the drywall was removed there were some cracks in the concrete and they went up the wall further than 12 inches.  Also the mold was not black mold so I could have removed it myself.  I did not find this out until the work was almost completed.  They did bring in machines to clean the air over a period of several days.  The machines were very loud and kept us out of room. <br /> The staff was professional and completed everything according to their estimate.  I think the price was high for the work performed, but they don't have a lot of competition in the area, and I did not call other vendors. <br />"

"Chris Curtis was on time, very professional, and had a very scrupulous report sent the same day as the inspection. He answered all questions thoroughly and I feel that when I address the findings from his report, my house will be tip top. He left no stone unturned. I would recommend him to anyone that wants a report backed with integrity"

"In both cases where I have used this company, they have been very professional, doing exactly what they said they would do.  John, the owner spent considerable time explaining all the issues concerning asbestos and its removal and was very helpful."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Rineyville, KY

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.
