What a Lead Paint Risk Assessment Includes

(HEALTH, SAFETY & COMPLIANCE)
A lead-based paint risk assessment gives you a clear understanding of hazards in your property. We review deteriorated paint and collect dust or soil samples when needed to check for contamination.
We also examine building history and any exposure pathways that may affect occupants. You leave with straightforward guidance that helps you address risks and keep the space safe and compliant.
This Professional Assessment Includes
Visual Survey

We check every painted surface that may create dust. You gain a clear picture of where peeling, friction, or impact areas could pose a problem.

Environmental Sampling

We collect dust wipes when the conditions call for it. If the site shows signs of soil exposure, we take samples from key areas.

Detailed Reporting

You receive a report that explains each finding in plain language. We highlight hazard levels and give you clear next steps.

Hazard Rating & Analysis

NYC Requirements & When Risk Assessments Are Needed

A lead-based paint risk assessment helps identify actual exposure risks in your property and plays an important role in NYC safety compliance. While Local Law 31 requires certified lead inspections building-wide, a risk assessment is needed when conditions may affect occupant health or when work could disturb lead-based paint. NYC rules require or strongly recommend a risk assessment in the following scenarios.
Property Transactions

A risk assessment provides hazard details that support accurate disclosures during real estate transactions. It helps buyers and owners understand existing risks and plan responsibly for future occupancy.

Renovations

Before any work that may disturb painted surfaces, a lead paint risk assessment identifies potential hazards and exposure pathways. This ensures renovation plans follow EPA RRP and NYC lead-safe work practices.

Child-Occupied Units

When deteriorated paint is found in a unit where young children live, a certified inspection is mandatory. This documents the hazard and provides the corrective actions needed to comply with NYC lead laws.

A lead-based paint risk assessment helps you clearly document existing hazards, understand your legal responsibilities under Local Law 1, and create a practical plan to correct unsafe conditions before they affect occupants.
