"I've hired Justin and his team for many projects over the past seven years. He helped us remodel our basement which required moving walls, installing luxury vinyl tile, painting, and installing new lighting. The work is consistently very good and his team is reliable and great to engage with. I can explain what I want done and he delivers exactly that. He is not always the cheapest, but he's not expensive either, and you get what you pay for. If I have a minor issue he's quick to resolve it. I highly recommend Adam Contracting!"

"Danisha was on time and took her time sampling every single possible source of lead in our house. It took almost a day (started at 9 and ended at 4 pm). She is very thorough, and did not rush the project. She promised to provide the report on a Friday and report was delivered electronically on friday morning. Me and my husband were eager to find out the result and we got the answers as promised. Highly recommend!"

"Ms. Raspa has surpassed all my expectations.  She completed a mold test after a remediation project to ensure its success.  Not only did she provide the results promptly, but she has advised us on a number of things including building materials that can contain VOC's, dehumidifiers, and various ways to prevent mold.  She is very professional and makes herself available for consult/ questions!  Would definitely recommend her!

"WDA and crew were super awesome! As a first time homeowner I had no idea what to do with all the water damage I had in one of my rooms in my condo caused by leak in a pipe, and it was a scary experience for me. They were very professional, helpful and full of wonderful advice. They came to my rescue and they made me feel better letting me know step by step what the process was going to be in the whole restoration & construction process. I cannot thank them enough, they definitely were my angels in this process, greatly appreciate everything, very thankful & full of gratitude! Thanks & Many Blessings."

"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."

"Chris was WONDERFUL! I just purchased a home and wanted to have a mold inspection done for peace of mind. Chris took time to explain the process and put my fears at ease with his vast knowledge. He reviewed the test results with me prior to closing which gave me the peace of mind I needed to confirm I was making a good purchase and great investment. I highly recommend Mid Atlantic Commercial Residential Real Estate Solutions. VERY PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS!!"

"My professional experience with this inspector was the epitome of what I expect for myself and my clients. This inspector was able to test my clients homes with professional equipment (X-ray). That ensured me and my client there was no lead in their home and they would not have to test again! As a realtor this reassurance for myself and my clients was exactly what was needed to assist my business in creating, establishing and continuing to provide exceptional services."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Washington, DC

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.
