Lead Paint Testing · California
What does a lead paint inspection report show?
Short answer
A lead report identifies the specific locations of lead-based paint and the concentration levels found. It will indicate whether the levels exceed the EPA threshold of 0.5% lead by weight or 1.0 mg/cm².
ClearPoint Environmental’s reports are detailed and easy to understand. We list every sample taken, the color of the paint, the substrate (like wood or plaster), and the condition of the surface. If lead is found, the report serves as a roadmap for your contractor or a disclosure document for future buyers. Our reports use data from accredited labs, ensuring they meet the requirements for HUD-funded projects, insurance claims, and local building permits throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
