Asbestos & Lead Testing in Cypress Hills, NY
Same-day reports for buyers and homeowners across Cypress Hills and the wider Brooklyn community.
Why Asbestos & Lead Testing Matters in Cypress Hills
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 Cypress Hills
Asbestos and lead testing in Cypress Hills targets the pre-1978 hazards in 1900-1930 attached two-family stock. Lead findings: paint at original window channels and casings (the most common lead-paint source by far), pre-1960 exterior trim, painted plaster on pre-1950 interior walls, and original baseboard and door trim. Asbestos findings: 9×9 vinyl floor tile in basements and kitchens, pipe-wrap on basement boiler distribution lines (friable when disturbed), aged boiler furnace cement and door gaskets, and original duct mastic in the supply runs. We test paint via XRF and bulk-sample suspect asbestos materials for accredited-lab analysis. NYC Local Law 31 requires lead inspection in pre-1960 rental units with children under 6.
The Cypress Hills Housing Stock We Know
