Lead Paint Inspection

Lead Paint Inspection

Know exactly what's in your property before it becomes a liability.

A lead paint inspection is a surface-by-surface assessment of all painted components in a building. Our certified inspectors test every painted surface — walls, trim, windows, doors, and more — to determine whether lead-based paint is present and document its condition. This is the foundational inspection required for most Ohio rental compliance programs and HUD-assisted housing.

What's Included

  • Complete surface-by-surface assessment of all painted components
  • Identifies presence and condition of lead-based paint
  • Meets Ohio EPA and HUD reporting standards
  • Detailed written report delivered within 48 hours
  • Required for most Ohio rental compliance programs
Inspection: 2–4 hours
Report: 48 hours

XRF Testing

XRF Testing

Immediate, accurate results — without touching a single painted surface.

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) testing is the gold standard for lead paint detection. Our portable XRF analyzers measure lead concentration in paint layers instantly and non-destructively — no scraping, no damage, no waiting for lab results. XRF testing is accepted by Ohio EPA, HUD, and all major compliance programs as definitive evidence of lead presence or absence.

What's Included

  • Non-destructive — no damage to painted surfaces
  • Instant on-site results from state-of-the-art XRF analyzers
  • Accepted by Ohio EPA, HUD, and all compliance programs
  • Tests through multiple paint layers simultaneously
  • Ideal for large portfolios requiring fast turnaround
Inspection: 1–3 hours
Report: Same day

Clearance Inspections

Clearance Inspections

The final step after abatement — official documentation that the work is done right.

After lead abatement or renovation work is completed, a clearance inspection verifies that all lead hazards have been properly remediated and the property is safe for occupancy. Our clearance inspections include visual assessment, dust wipe sampling, and laboratory analysis. We provide the official clearance report required by Ohio law before a property can be re-occupied.

What's Included

  • Visual assessment of all abatement work
  • Dust wipe sampling and certified laboratory analysis
  • Official clearance report required for re-occupancy
  • Compliant with Ohio EPA and HUD clearance standards
  • Coordinates directly with abatement contractors on scheduling
Inspection: 2–3 hours + lab time
Report: 3–5 business days

Risk Assessments

Risk Assessments

A complete picture of lead hazards — paint, dust, and soil — with a clear remediation roadmap.

A risk assessment goes beyond a standard inspection to evaluate all potential lead hazard pathways in a property: deteriorated paint, lead-contaminated dust, and lead in soil. Our certified risk assessors identify the severity of each hazard and provide prioritized remediation recommendations — helping you address the most critical issues first and manage costs effectively.

What's Included

  • Evaluates paint, dust, and soil lead hazards
  • Identifies hazard severity and prioritizes remediation
  • Provides cost-effective remediation recommendations
  • Required for HUD-assisted housing and many grant programs
  • Comprehensive written report with action plan
Inspection: 3–5 hours
Report: 3–5 business days
