Lead Paint Services We Offer

XRF Lead Testing (X-ray Fluorescence)

Fast, non-invasive testing that detects lead in painted surfaces. XRF is often required before renovations or when addressing HPD or DOH violations. Our team ensures compliance with NYC Local Law 1 and LL31 regulations.

When more detailed lab analysis is needed, we collect dust wipe or paint chip samples for EPA-approved testing. This method is useful for clearance testing, tenant safety, or when XRF results are inconclusive.

After remediation, we perform lead clearance testing to verify the area is safe for re-entry—meeting HUD and EPA post-removal standards.

If you’ve received a DOH violation for lead-based paint, Exit Mold can guide you through resolution. We’ll inspect the area, test for lead, and provide certified remediation and clearance testing to satisfy health department requirements.

Correct Lead-Based Paint Violations from NYC Housing Preservation & Development

HPD violations are issued when lead hazards are found in residential buildings. We help landlords and property managers resolve these notices through compliant testing, removal, and documentation in line with NYC Local Law 1 of 2004 and LL31.

End-to-End Support for Any Lead-Based Paint Violation

Exit Mold works with building owners, property managers, and legal teams to resolve any type of lead paint violation in NYC or Long Island. From initial testing to final reports, we help you stay compliant and avoid fines.

Challenge Incorrect or Inconclusive Lead Paint Violation Findings

Received a violation you believe is incorrect? We can help. Exit Mold provides expert consultation and testing to contest lead paint citations or support a legal defense, especially in cases with incomplete or disputed XRF readings.

Accurate, Lab-Based Lead Detection When Surface Testing Isn’t Enough

We collect physical paint chip samples and submit them to EPA-certified labs for precise lead content analysis. This method supports violation defense, insurance claims, and remediation planning when XRF isn’t conclusive.

Certified Reports for Insurance, Legal, or Pre-Sale Requirements

Many insurers now require lead safety inspections before issuing or renewing policies. We provide full lead inspection reports and documentation for underwriting, legal protection, and property sales.

When You Need Lead Paint Remediation

Protect Your Health, Property, and Stay Compliant with NYC Local Law 31

Lead-based paint is a hidden danger in many New York properties built before 1978. As it ages, it can crack, peel, and release hazardous dust—posing severe health risks to children, tenants, and workers. Even minor exposure can lead to learning delays, developmental issues, and long-term health complications.

In New York City, Local Law 31 requires lead paint inspections be completed by August 2025 for all rental units in pre-1960 buildings—and some post-1960 units if lead-based paint is suspected. Failure to comply can result in fines, violations, and legal liability.

Exit Mold provides certified lead inspections and remediation across NYC and Long Island, helping you meet legal requirements while keeping your property safe and fully documented.

FAQ

Lead Paint Remediation

Below you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions about lead paint remediation. If your query is not covered, feel free to reach out to us. We are here to assist and will respond promptly.

Lead remediation is the process of identifying and safely managing or removing lead-based paint hazards from a property. This includes methods like encapsulation, enclosure, or full removal, depending on the condition and location of the paint.

  • Lead remediation focuses on reducing risk, often temporarily.

  • Lead abatement is a permanent removal of lead hazards, typically required by law in certain cases (e.g., HUD housing or after a child tests high for lead).
    Abatement is more regulated, must be performed by certified professionals, and follows strict procedures.

Lead remediation is necessary when deteriorating lead-based paint is present in any property—especially homes built before 1978. In NYC, remediation is often required after receiving a Department of Health or HPD violation, or before major renovations.

Yes. In NYC, Local Law 31 requires lead paint inspections before renovations in buildings built before 1960. Landlords and contractors must comply with this law or face penalties.

You can perform limited work on your own property if allowed by local laws, but it’s risky. DIY remediation must follow EPA’s Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) guidelines, using proper tools, safety gear, and containment. For rental properties or public housing, professional certified contractors are required.

Local Law 31 requires lead inspections by certified professionals in NYC rental units built before 1960, with a deadline of August 2025. Landlords must comply to avoid HPD violations and potential liability.
