Common questions
What clients ask before scheduling.
Can lead be found in paint, dust, soil and water?
Yes. Lead may be present in multiple materials and environmental pathways. Each matrix requires its own sampling method and interpretation; there is no single test that answers every lead question.
When is dust testing useful?
Dust testing may be useful when evaluating a work area, deteriorated paint, cleaning effectiveness or possible exposure pathways. The exact scope should reflect the property and purpose.
