Certified lead paint inspectors
The older your house, the greater the chance that it contains lead-based paint. For instance, almost 87% of houses built before 1940 contain some level of lead-based paint, while 24% of houses built from 1960 onwards still have lead-based paint present.
The presence of lead-based paint in any house is a concern, especially if children are living there. That’s why the EPA has enforced certain regulations to ensure the safety of people on such premises.
As per these regulations, all buildings built before 1978 need to be checked for the presence of lead-based paint. If you own a house in Manhattan built before 1978, it is required to hire an EPA certified lead paint inspector in NYC to make sure your home is not in violation of lead-based paint.
