If a lead paint inspection turned up hazards, the next step is remediation. We're EPA RRP certified to do the abatement work, handle the clearance exam at the end, and document every step so your records are clean. We can work from our own inspection report or any other certified inspector's report.
When an inspection finds lead hazards in a property, NJ law requires the hazards to be addressed before the property can be certified Lead Safe. Remediation work includes:
This isn't general renovation. EPA's Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) rule sets strict requirements for how lead-painted surfaces get disturbed, contained, and cleaned up. Contractors who aren't RRP certified can be fined for working on a pre-1978 property.
You got a written list of deficiencies from a Lead Inspector / Risk Assessor (ours or someone else's). The property cannot be certified until those items are addressed. We pick up from the report and handle the work.
Common in older urban rentals. Address the hazards before closing or before the first tenant moves in.
Federal, state, and municipal projects increasingly require RRP-certified contractors for any renovation that disturbs pre-1978 surfaces. We're set up for government contract work. References available.
Ours or another certified inspector's. PDF upload, email, or hand-off.
From the inspection report, with a site visit when the job needs one. Written, itemized.
You sign off the estimate and the deposit books the work.
Containment, removal or encapsulation, EPA RRP-compliant cleanup. Photo-documented every step.
A clearance exam verifies the work, with dust wipes analyzed by a lab.
A lot of contractors will only remediate properties they inspected. We don't work that way. Send us your inspection report from any NJ-certified Lead Inspector / Risk Assessor and we'll scope the remediation off it. No re-inspection required.
If you don't have an inspection report yet, start there. The inspection has to come before the remediation.
Some NJ municipalities require an "abatement letter" or formal authorization before remediation work begins on a pre-1978 property. Whether one is required depends on:
When you upload your inspection report, ask whether your property and scope need an abatement letter and what the process looks like in your municipality.
Remediation pricing isn't a flat fee per door. Every inspection report flags different items. A window-only deficiency in one unit is a different job than full encapsulation across a 6-unit building. We quote per scope.
For government contracts and large portfolio work, send the contract terms with your request.
A significant share of our remediation work is government. Lead hazard control programs at the federal (HUD), state (NJ DCA), and municipal level all require EPA RRP-certified contractors and specific documentation standards. We're set up for it.
If you're a public works manager, HUD-funded property, or NJ Department contract administrator looking for a lead remediation vendor, we can match your documentation, insurance, and reporting requirements. Send us the RFP or contact info.
