In New York, Local Law 1 of 2004 and it's amendments, require landlords to identify and remediate lead based paint hazards in the apartments where there is a young child, using trained workers and safe work practices. Lead-based paint hazards are presumed to exist in dwelling units and common areas if:
We are certified by NYS and NYC as Lead Inspectors. We work closely with building managers, federal/state, private property owners and general contractors. We adhere strictly to NYC, NYS and EPA regulations regarding setting up and performing lead investigation projects.
We begin monitoring projects in phases. In the initial phase we build two airlocks and a decontamition area following EPA regulations for all investigators to clean up before and after an inspection. In phase two we take bulk samples of all friable, non-friable materials on site following strict adherence to all local/federal mandates. After project completion we send all samples to our partner labs to check for presence of Asbestos fibers in samples.
