Our Inspection Process

1. Schedule

We review the property type, year built, units/areas involved, and the reason for inspection.

2. Inspect

Certified personnel evaluate accessible painted/coated surfaces using appropriate inspection methods.

3. Document

Field data, XRF readings, lab results, photos, and calibration information are organized for review.

4. Report

You receive a clear inspection report or letter with findings, limitations, and supporting attachments.

EPA, HUD & New York Compliance Support

Our inspection documentation is designed to support lead-based paint compliance workflows under applicable EPA, HUD, New York State, NYC, and local requirements. Reports may include XRF results, lab documentation, calibration records, photos, chain-of-custody forms, and inspection-only certification language.

Compliance note: Lead-based paint inspection services identify the presence or absence of lead-based paint on tested surfaces. A lead inspection is not the same as a risk assessment, clearance examination, abatement design, legal opinion, or agency approval unless those services are specifically contracted and documented separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A lead-based paint inspection determines whether lead-based paint is present on tested painted or coated surfaces. It is different from a risk assessment, which evaluates lead hazards and exposure risk.

  • Pre-1978 properties may require lead documentation for real estate, renovation, rental housing, HUD programs, NYC Local Law 1, or local health department matters. The right service depends on your property and reason for testing.

  • Yes. Reports can be prepared for single-family homes, two-family homes, multifamily buildings, apartments, common areas, exteriors, and agency-related scopes.

  • Yes. We can prepare inspection documentation and supporting records for HUD, agency, lender, property management, or regulatory workflows, based on the contracted scope.

  • No. An inspection letter documents inspection findings. Clearance generally requires post-work visual assessment and dust wipe sampling under a separate clearance scope.
