XRF Lead Paint Testing
X-ray fluorescence, commonly known as XRF testing, uses specialized equipment to determine whether lead is present in painted building components. XRF testing can evaluate painted surfaces without requiring destructive sampling of every component, making it particularly useful for older residential and multifamily properties. Testing can help identify which components contain lead-based paint, support compliance documentation and provide property owners with better information before renovation or remediation work begins.
Lead Testing for Landlords & Property Managers
Lead compliance can become complicated quickly — particularly for owners and managers of older rental properties. Lead Property & Environmental Solutions works with landlords and property managers who need professional testing, documentation and help determining the appropriate next steps when lead is identified. For New York City properties, additional requirements may apply under the City's lead-based paint laws, including inspection, recordkeeping and remediation requirements.

Abatement and remediation answer: “What needs to be done about it?”
If testing identifies lead-based paint or lead hazards requiring correction, the next step may involve stabilization, removal, enclosure, replacement or another appropriate remediation method. Lead Property & Environmental Solutions also provides professional lead abatement and removal services.

Lead Paint Testing & Inspection FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my property has lead paint?+
The age of a property can indicate an increased likelihood of lead-based paint, but age alone doesn't tell you which surfaces contain lead. Professional testing can determine whether lead is present in specific painted components and help identify potential hazards.
What is an XRF lead inspection?+
XRF testing uses specialized equipment to analyze painted surfaces for lead. It allows many building components to be tested without removing paint from every surface.
Do you provide XRF testing?+
Yes. Lead Property & Environmental Solutions provides professional lead testing, including XRF testing where appropriate for the property and purpose of the inspection.
Do you send samples to a laboratory?+
When laboratory analysis is appropriate, samples can be collected and submitted for analysis. The appropriate testing method depends on the property, conditions present and reason for testing.
Do you provide lead testing for landlords?+
Yes. We work with landlords and property managers who need lead testing, inspection documentation and assistance identifying appropriate next steps.
Can you remove the lead if testing finds it?+
Yes. Lead Property & Environmental Solutions also provides lead abatement and remediation services. When applicable regulations require testing, clearance or verification to be performed independently of the remediation contractor, those requirements are followed.
Do you test for mold too?+
We also provide mold and indoor environmental services. The appropriate testing approach depends on the conditions present at the property.
