EPA & HPD Clearance Testing

Lead Dust Wipe Sampling

Professional Dust Clearance Testing for Residential & Commercial Properties

Required after lead paint repair, renovation, abatement, or HPD-related lead hazard correction work to verify that no hazardous lead dust remains.

Professional Lead Dust Wipe Sampling

EnviroGen provides professional lead dust wipe sampling for residential, commercial, and multi-family properties in New York City.

Why Dust Wipe Sampling?

Dust wipe sampling is commonly required after lead paint repair, renovation, abatement, or HPD-related lead hazard correction work to verify that no hazardous lead dust remains. NYC HPD notes that after painted-surface work, a clearance test called a dust wipe may be required to confirm the area is safe.

Our Service Includes:

  • On-Site Dust Wipe Sample Collection

    Professional collection from floors, windowsills, and window troughs

  • Proper Sample Labeling & Chain of Custody

    Full documentation trail for compliance and legal records

  • Accredited Laboratory Analysis

    Analysis by an EPA-recognized, accredited laboratory

  • Clear Written Results

    Clear results for owner, contractor, or compliance records

Current EPA Clearance Levels

Surface Tested EPA Clearance Level
Floors 5 µg/ft²
Interior Window Sills 40 µg/ft²
Window Troughs 100 µg/ft²

EPA's 2024 final rule lowered post-abatement dust-lead clearance levels and recognizes any reportable lead dust level from an EPA-recognized laboratory as a dust-lead hazard standard.

When is Clearance Testing Required?

  • After lead paint abatement or removal
  • Following lead hazard reduction work
  • After tenant turnover lead-safe work
  • Post lead encapsulation projects
  • Annual monitoring for LL31 compliance

Note: Requirements may vary depending on the property, scope of work, HPD violation, abatement order, or project type. EnviroGen provides inspection and sampling services; legal interpretations should be confirmed with HPD, EPA, or a qualified attorney.
