Lead Hazard Mitigation

Lead Paint Inspection & Dust Testing

Homes built before 1978 — especially pre-1950 historic residences in Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia — contain high concentrations of lead-based paint on original trim, windows, and doors. We provide XRF surface testing and accredited dust wipe clearance sampling.

Peeling & Flaking Paint

Chipping, peeling, or alligatoring paint layers release toxic micro-particles into living spaces, posing severe health risks to young children and pets.

Pre-1978 Historic Architecture

Properties constructed prior to the 1978 federal ban require EPA Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) containment protocols whenever work disturbs painted surfaces.
