Federal law requires disclosure of lead-based paint in homes built before 1978, and renovating those homes legally requires EPA RRP-certified contractors. We perform lead-paint risk assessments using either XRF analyzer (instant results) or lab paint chip analysis.

Common questions about lead paint inspection
Is lead paint inspection worth the cost?
For most Mankato-area buyers, yes. The cost is small relative to what a missed issue could cost after closing.
How long does lead paint inspection take?
Varies by scope — most service-specific add-ons take 20–60 minutes on top of the home inspection. We bundle them into one visit.
Do you bundle lead paint inspection with a home inspection?
Yes — bundling saves $50–$100 vs. booking separately and means one report and one bill.
Where do you offer this service?
Mankato and a 50+ mile radius across Southern Minnesota — see our service area page for a full list of cities.
How fast do I get the report?
Same day for most inspections. Always within 24 hours.
