If you are contemplating buying a residential or commercial property that was built before 1978, it is advisable to assess the structure for potential lead-related risks. Our risk analysis methods include evaluation of the age, history and condition of the structure, dust wipes, soil sampling, paint sampling etc. Finally, a report will be given to you detailing the results of the analysis, the level of lead abatement/ removal required as well as temporary safety measures to be implemented.



A surface by surface testing can be conducted with an XRF gun to measure the lead level on the spot. Glazed ceramics may also contain lead and should be tested, regardless of age.



A clearance inspection is usually done after renovation or repair of a property and before its occupation to ensure that the lead abatement work was completed as per all requirements. Here is how we conduct the inspection:

• Our trained professionals will revisit your property to ensure that there are no paint chips, construction debris or settled dust
  
• Then dust wipes samples will be taken and sent to the lab for analysis
  
• Finally, we will give you a formal report of clearance to occupy the property
