In Rochester,
NY rental properties requiring C of O's ,built before 1978...... are now subject to a visual deteriorated
paint inspection and/or dust wipe test to determine presence of lead based paint hazards.
This is in response to the new Lead Paint Ordinance enacted by the City of Rochester in July, 2006 requiring lead test.
Read the complete text of the ordinance (click here) .
Homeowners, do you know
... about the new EPA Rule? Protect yourself, your families.....
EPA Lead Paint RULE "Renovation, Remodeling, and Painting Rule"
The EPA’s Renovation, Repair & Painting regulation
requires any persons distubing potential lead based paint in target housing (pre-78) to become RRP Certified Renovators,
by taking a new one-day course about using "Lead Safe Work Practices" on the job. Contractors/Property
Mgrs/ Landlords who violate the RRP regulations may face fines in excess of $32K per violation per day. Government Funds are available for
home renovations $$$

Remodeling an older home?
If you are remodeling a structure built prior to 1978, you may want to consider a 3rd Party lead
dust wipe clearance examination after
the work is completed. Or better yet, have the paint XRF tested professionally prior to beginning work. This is an EPA lead testing procedure
which can help verify the interior was cleaned up properly, and there is no trace of residual lead based paint dust. This
is particularly important if there are children in the home are 6 yrs old or younger, or if a child has an elevated blood
lead level, or if anyone is pregnant. Lead is a neurotoxin to young children, and is proven to cause
permanent brain damage.
Be sure to discuss lead based paint testing /concerns with your contractor PRIOR to signing the contract,
and possibly withholding some of the final payment until the home has achieved a 3rd party lead clearance exam
through a dust wipe lead test by us, an EPA Certified firm.

When your children or grandchildren come to your home, are you sure is it lead
safe? Lead dust from
40-50-60 years of remodeling can remain in the home, and is virtually invisible to the naked eye. Have you looked for deteriorated paint? Or possibly, if there
is lead dust residue in the house from previous work performed over the many years? A simple lead test / dust wipe testing, xrf testing
or risk assessment can help you find out. The samples
are sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Basement walls, posts, attics, windows, radiators, closets, old
play sets in the yard, garages, old clothes poles, or an old fence can all be sources of lead paint poisoning.
We
can provide you with a Lead
Hazard Home Evaluation, including dust wipe analysis,
for as little as $200
