Why Asbestos & Lead Testing Matters in Brownsville
Homes built before 1980 may contain asbestos in insulation, flooring, siding, or pipe wrapping. Homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint. We collect samples and send them to a certified lab for analysis.
What We Typically Find on Asbestos & Lead Testing in Brownsville
Asbestos and lead testing in Brownsville works through the deferred-maintenance pre-1978 profile of pre-1950 attached homes. Lead findings: chronic peeling lead paint at original window casings and exterior trim, pre-1960 painted plaster walls, original baseboards and door frames, and on porch decks where weathering has exposed underlying lead layers. Asbestos findings: 9×9 vinyl floor tile in basements, pipe-wrap insulation on boiler distribution lines (friable when disturbed), aged boiler furnace cement and gaskets, original duct mastic, and roof flashing cement on aged tar-paper recoats. We XRF-test paint on every accessible surface and bulk-sample suspect asbestos materials for accredited-lab analysis. NYC Local Law 31 reports available for pre-1960 rental units with children under 6.
