About Us
We are experienced and certified lead inspectors, risk assessors and project monitors who believe in helping people find practical and cost effective lead safe solutions.
Our award-winning company website - www.homesafe.org - has been recognized as one of the best sources for straight answers about lead poisoning and lead testing on the web. In fact, the site is frequently the only non-governmental web resource mentioned in official publications.
Since 1996, we have received hundreds of e-mail inquiries about lead related issues from people all over the U.S. A recurring query subject has been "Is there a way to take the tests myself?"
While hiring a certified professional is still the best way to go, we recognize that some people may wish to do preliminary testing on their own. That's why we started LeadTestKits.Com. To give you the proper supplies and instructions to do it yourself.
The designer of our lead test kits is Kathleen Gura, a certified lead inspector, risk assessor and project monitor. She is also an experienced instructor who teaches lead-related courses to other inspectors, trainees and contractors. As a Master Trainer for the University of California -Berkely lead program, she teaches lead safety to California school districts. She also designed the League of California Homeowner's Lead Safe Contractor program and helped gain EPA funding for the project. In addition, she is the primary instructor of HomeSafe's accredited classes and she also teaches at training providers in California and Nevada.
