Bushwick has many late 19th- and early 20th-century frame and brick row houses, two- to four-family homes and small walk-up apartment buildings, many with original wood trim.
As older buildings are renovated or converted, sanding and demolition can release lead dust. EPA rules require lead-safe work practices on pre-1978 homes, and NYC adds its own rules for apartments where young children live.
We work across the blocks around Knickerbocker Avenue, Wyckoff Avenue, Myrtle Avenue and Broadway.
An EPA-certified inspector uses an XRF device to test painted surfaces without damaging them, and dust wipe samples show whether lead dust is present on floors and window sills. You get a written report listing which surfaces contain lead and what to fix first. See lead paint inspection in NYC and dust wipe testing.
