Lead Paint Testing

Many homes on Long Island and in the 5 boroughs of New York have lead-based paint in them, especially older homes that have not been renovated. Meticulous Home Inspection now offers lead-based paint sampling to homebuyers and homeowners alike. This service requires paint samples be taken from the subject property from surfaces such as window sills, door frames, walls, and doors. These samples are analyzed in a laboratory, and the test results are returned in 3-5 days. Some banks and mortgage companies, as well as insurance companies are requiring lead-based paint testing more and more these days. And not just any inspector can provide this service either. The test kits at your local paint store are not an accurate test for lead-based paint, but many inspectors offer this as a lead-based paint inspection, and charge you for an unreliable test. As Long Island's premier inspection company, Meticulous Home Inspection Corp. has attained this important EPA certification which requires refresher courses every three years. So don't be ridiculous, call Meticulous!
