Lead Inspections & Risk Assessments

Identifying Lead Hazards and What to Do About Them

Clear Answers for Buildings Where Lead May Be Present

Lead-based paint is commonly found in buildings constructed before 1978. When it deteriorates or is disturbed during renovation, it can create dust and debris that pose health risks, especially for children.

Lead inspections and risk assessments are used to identify where lead is present and determine whether it creates a hazard under current conditions.

The goal is to provide clear, actionable information so property owners, project teams, and occupants understand what needs to be addressed — and what doesn’t.
