At JFD Home Solutions, we use advanced techniques to identify lead contamination in paint, dust, and surfaces, ensuring your property meets safety regulations.
Our Lead Combo Inspection includes:
- XRF Testing – A non-invasive, on-the-spot analysis using an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) device to detect lead-based paint without damaging surfaces.
- Lead Dust Wipe Sampling – Collection of dust samples from floors, windowsills, and other surfaces to determine if hazardous lead dust is present.
- Visual Assessment – A thorough inspection to identify deteriorating paint, potential lead hazards, and areas of concern.
This all-in-one inspection is ideal for homeowners, landlords, and property managers seeking full compliance with federal, state, and local lead safety regulations. It is particularly beneficial for rental properties, pre-renovation assessments, and home sales requiring lead-free certification.
