About Us

Healthy Home has expertise on lead poisoning and new "safe lead practices" regulations and guidance from EPA, HUD, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Frustrated with the lack of resources, education, and tools to empower parents to easily protect their children from toxic lead exposure, Healthy Home has focused intensely on working to make a difference over the past 10 years. Working with leading scientists and researchers in lead poisoning, we have advised and helped 100s of families and professionals learn straight-forward, low-cost ways to maintain a lead safe home, school, garden, or workplace.

Too many people remain unaware of lead hazards in the home, or if they are aware, become so confused and scared of the issue that they are not sure what to do. Often people assume that the only option for correcting potential lead hazards is expensive lead abatement work, and are not aware of new recommendations, regulations, and health guidance that empower parents and everyday home renovation contractors to follow simple, low-cost (and "no cost") steps to maintaining a lead safe home. We have observed firsthand that a modest amount of instruction and advise made huge differences to families in understanding how simple and affordable it can be to find and eliminate common lead hazards before they result in dangerous exposure that leads to chronic lead poisoning. This non-fatal lead poisoning is a potential danger for anyone in a pre-1978 home, school, or other building, but is often an invisible disease, with people showing not obvious signs of poisoning at first.

Healthy Home provides home consultations to help you understand how simple it can be to maintain a lead safe environment for you and your loved ones.

Your Healthy Home Consultation will include:

2 hour virtual tele-visit (via Zoom, phone, FaceTime, etc) to assist you in evaluating potential hazards in your home or business, answer questions, and provide information;
Free instant lead test kits and instruction for you to check for lead paint in 100s of areas throughout your home or business;
Tips and advise on how to ensure that contractors working in your home are following proper methods to avoid creating lead hazards;
Tips and advise for people preparing to sell or purchase a home and want to understand how to take simple, inexpensive steps to easily avoid potential big, expensive problems;
This is NOT a formal, "official" lead inspection. You perform testing yourself with instruction from Healthy Home for your own, confidential use. We do not document any findings or generate any reports of suspected hazards. This is strictly for your own, private use in identifying likely areas of potential hazard so you can use low-cost cleaning and minor repair methods to mitigate potential hazards to prevent them from posing a hazard.
Valuable discount coupons for recommended products to help make lead safe cleaning and repair easy.
Peace of mind that you finally understand the issue, identify a few areas that deserve attention and many areas where lead paint may be present, but not constitute a danger.
Don't wait for your young child to show signs of IQ loss or attention and behavior disorder years after prolonged exposure and wish you had take simple steps earlier. ACT NOW and enjoy the peace of mind that you are equipped to know if there are lead hazards or not, and empowered with the information and tools to ensure a safe and healthy environment for you and your family!
