"Great work from this company. I would recommend that if anyone needs painting, drywalling done, hire Perfect Touch. Definitely a fair price. Juan came to the site, inspected, and started a couple of days later. He and his team finished quite a bit of work in one day. THUMBS UP!"

"These guys were AWESOME. They arrived within 90 minutes, assessed, estimated, and had equipment already with them to handle our flooding. They moved the furniture, explained how it all worked, came back half way through (it was a 3 day process), moved the fans, and then put it all back when they were done at the end of the 3rd day. If every company worked like this - had staff as professional, friendly, and reassuring as these guys - there'd be no need for a better business bureau! Love them. Don't hesitate to use them!"

"I have had no problem with Green Environmental or its President, Mr. Barkley. This company has done several homes for us, all of which have been certified lead free as our preferred choice and objective. Mr Barkley is punctual, completes inspection in a timely manner, and always willing to share his experience, insights and advice ensuring the work is done correctly to meet code and MDE standard. I recommend Green Environmental and its very trustworthy President, Mr Brian Barkley, to anyone who is looking for an excellent lead inspection professional."

"I had a pipe burst in the basement of our rental property, Flood Crew was referred by our realtor. They arrived quickly after the pipe was fixed by our plumber, demoed, and dried out the areas, even handled packing out our furniture and placing carefully in a pod storage while the work was being done. They did mold testing and made sure everything was safe, the best part was that they dealt with the insurance and we didn’t have to do anything."

"I called them concerned with the possibility of lead paint in my house and the need for removal. The owner took the time to talk to me about the nature of lead paint in the home, and the fact that since it wasn't peeling or chipping, my best (and free) option would be to leave it along rather than pay for abatement."

FAQs for toxic lead service projects in Washington, DC

Your standard homeowners’ policy won’t pay for lead paint removal because insurers treat it as a maintenance issue, not a sudden loss. If a covered event like a fire or flood damages a lead-painted wall, the carrier will replace that wall but not cover full abatement. Plan to budget for lead removal yourself, or look into state or local grant programs that offset the cost.

Yes, you can sell, but federal law says you must disclose any known lead paint and share paperwork for past remediation or encapsulation. Honest disclosure protects you from legal trouble and helps buyers understand any work that still needs doing. Many sellers also offer a closing credit to cover future abatement, so talk to your real estate agent about local norms.

Lead paint contains the heavy metal lead, which becomes airborne when the coating chips, peels, or turns into dust. Breathing in or swallowing that dust allows lead to accumulate in your body and can trigger headaches, cognitive delays, organ damage, and other serious issues, especially in children and pets. 

Because the danger hides in everyday activities like opening a window or sweeping a floor, complete removal or professional encapsulation is the safest long-term fix.

Plan on spending $200 to $400 on lead inspection costs. A certified tester will scan walls, trim, and other surfaces with an X-ray fluorescence device, zeroing in on high-risk spots throughout your home. The report will spell out where lead is present and how severe it is, giving you the facts you need to budget for removal and keep everyone safe.
