"We received an asbestos inspection/test for our old plaster walls and ceiling areas. The turn around times were fantastic - inspector was in our area and able to fit us in the same day I called. Sample results and accompanying lab report were emailed within 36 hours. All samples were analyzed by a local lab accredited under the NIST NVLAP Asbestos Fiber Analysis Lab Accreditation Program, so I felt comfortable trusting the results. The inspector seemed very knowledgeable and helped walk us through any areas that could be of concern. Thankfully all samples were negative, but the modest inspection and sampling fees were well worth the piece of mind during our remodel. In short, I highly recommend this company for asbestos testing/inspections."

"Excellent. All communications were good. Ms. Kleinhammer was very responsive. She took the time to clearly indicate the situation with respect to lead testing for my unit. She was early to our appointed time to inspect the unit. She was professional in her work and provided all the information that I needed to complete the registration of the unit with MDE. I will use this company again if I have a need for other environmental testing. <br />"

"I have contacted this company several times about to get lead testing and how to meet MD state standards. I used them in February 2018 to test a condo I am renting. The info provided was excellent and the the owner and staff very efficient in providing the needed services and results. I received the test results in less than 5 days."

"Carlos came out and took some samples and had them sent back to a lab in Richmond. He called back in the allotted time he said he would and luckily the test results were negative. No further action required. He estimated about $1200 for the job if it woul dhave required to be taken out and said there was also a fee from another company of about $300 to test the air after the work was completed, which aligns to the other estimates I received. He knocked off 25$ from the testing since he was able to get the samples so easily. Very nice guy and very professional. <br />"

"Steven Boie was incredibly thorough and identified issues large and small that enabled me to assess whether the price we offered for the house was fair.  Based on what Steven found, we negotiated a lower price with the seller.  Steven also urged us to do the radon test ($149) and we are glad we did since radon was found and the seller had to fix the problem before settlement. <br /> <br /> Steven and his associate were very prompt, professional and provide me with a very detailed report on all aspects of his inspection and findings."

"Pete Heppner provided a thorough and complete estimate. A mutually convenient time was scheduled to perform the work. It was important for the customer to have all the work complete in one day; ACM assured and accomplished the required work in the required time period. Six personnel arrived and stayed the whole time to complete the work. Pete arrived at the beginning of the day to insure that all was going according to plan. The six workers worked hard the entire day and did a very professional job using excellent work techniques to contain any and all asbestos being removed. The after job testing was completed satisfactorily. ACM left the work area very clean. A very good experience for the homeowner. <br />"

"It went very well. Contractor called and asked if he could come earlier than agreed upon time (which was fine). He was extremely polite and professional. He explained what he was doing, what his goal was, how long everything would take and what the next steps would be, based on test results."

"Henry was very professional and helpful. He thoroughly explained what he was doing, why he thought the tiles were not asbestos, and how the testing process would work. Nena, the office manager, was pleasant and helpful over the phone. Our lab results confirmed that the tiles did not contain asbestos, so we did not have removal completed."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in White Plains, MD

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.
