  • Type of test: inspection, risk assessment or renovation test kit
  • Size of the home and number of rooms and components
  • Number of dust and soil samples sent to a lab

Before you hire in Shelby Township

Mid-century and newer systems

Most homes here date from 1989 or later. Original furnaces, water heaters and roofs from that era are well past their service life, so replacement planning matters more than repair.

Michigan basements

Freeze-thaw cycles and clay soils make foundation cracks and wet basements common across Metro Detroit. Foundation and sump pump checks belong on every spring list.

Permits: check with the Shelby Township building department before work starts.

How to compare lead paint testing quotes

  • Decide your goal: renovation planning, rental compliance, a purchase or a child's health.
  • Check the tester on the MDHHS list of certified lead inspectors and risk assessors.
  • Ask whether the quote includes dust and soil samples and lab fees.
  • Ask how long before you receive the written report.
  • If a painter offers a test kit, ask whether it covers only the surfaces they will disturb.

Lead Paint Testing in Shelby Township: FAQ

An inspection finds lead-based paint surface by surface. A risk assessment also checks dust and soil and tells you which lead is an active hazard and how to address it.
EPA-recognized kits used by certified renovators help decide whether RRP rules apply to a job. For a full picture of the home, hire a state-certified inspector or risk assessor.
Not always. A lead-safe certified painter can simply follow RRP work practices, but testing may show the rules do not apply and simplify the job.

It depends on the scope. Ask the Shelby Township building department, and expect a licensed contractor to pull any permit the job needs.
