Lead Paint Isn't Always Visible
Professional lead testing goes beyond looking for peeling or deteriorated paint. Understanding where lead-based coatings are located and how painted building components are used is an important part of evaluating older properties.

Not Every "Lead Test" Is the Same
Different lead inspection and sampling services answer different questions. Selecting the correct scope is important when evaluating a property, planning renovation work, satisfying a regulatory requirement, or verifying completed hazard-control work.

Why Pre-1978 Properties Require Special Attention
Lead-based paint is most commonly associated with older buildings. A property may have been repainted many times while older lead-containing coatings remain beneath the visible finish.
Renovation, repair, window replacement, sanding, scraping, drilling, demolition, deterioration, and other activities can disturb painted building components and create lead-containing dust or debris when lead-based coatings are present.
Professional testing before work begins can help identify which components contain lead so that property owners and contractors can make informed decisions regarding the project and appropriate lead-safe work practices.
Independent Testing. Clear Results. Practical Guidance.
Lead inspection involves more than determining whether a painted surface contains lead. Condition, location, deterioration, friction, impact, dust generation, and the way building components are used can all affect the significance of a finding.
Dynamic Inspections approaches each project as an independent environmental inspection. Our responsibility is to evaluate the conditions within the agreed scope, document what we observe, and provide our clients with understandable findings.

Lead Inspection FAQs
What is an XRF lead paint inspection?
XRF testing uses specialized X-ray fluorescence instrumentation to evaluate painted building components for lead. It allows many painted surfaces to be tested without destructive paint-chip sampling.
Which properties may contain lead-based paint?
Lead-based paint is primarily associated with older buildings, particularly properties constructed before 1978. Testing is the appropriate way to determine whether specific painted components contain lead-based paint.
What is the difference between a lead inspection and a risk assessment?
A lead-based paint inspection identifies the presence and location of lead-based paint. A lead risk assessment evaluates potential lead hazards and conditions that may contribute to lead exposure. The correct service depends on the reason the property is being evaluated.
Can XRF testing detect lead beneath newer layers of paint?
XRF instrumentation is designed to evaluate painted building components for lead without requiring the visible coating to be removed. This makes it particularly useful in older buildings where multiple generations of paint may be present.
Do New Jersey rental properties require lead inspections?
Certain pre-1978 rental properties in New Jersey are subject to periodic lead-based paint inspection requirements. Requirements and exemptions can depend on the property and applicable local and state criteria.
Do you perform lead inspections in Philadelphia?
Yes. Dynamic Inspections provides lead inspection and testing services throughout Philadelphia, including dust wipe sampling, clearance testing, XRF testing, and risk assessment services when applicable.
Should I test for lead before renovating an older property?
Testing painted components before renovation can help identify where lead-based paint is present before sanding, demolition, window replacement, scraping, drilling, or other activities disturb painted surfaces.
Do you perform clearance testing after lead remediation or hazard-control work?
Yes. Depending on the project, post-work or clearance evaluation may include a visual assessment and collection of environmental samples for laboratory analysis.
