Check the firm or person in the official list ([US Environmental Protection Agency](https://cdxocsppapps.epa.gov/ocspp-oppt-lead/firm-location-search)). Ours was retrieved 2026-10-12, so confirm the certification is still current. 2. Ask for the certification or licence number in writing, plus the individual inspector's own credential. 3. Decide what you need first: an [inspection or a risk assessment](https://leadpaintroster.com/lead-inspection-vs-risk-assessment/). 4. For abatement, use a certified abatement contractor, and have someone independent do the clearance test. ## Questions to ask * Will you do a full inspection (surface by surface), a risk assessment, or both? * Will you use an XRF analyzer, paint chip samples, or dust wipes? * Will the report meet the requirements of the local rental-inspection or lead law? * How soon will I get the written report and any lead-safe certificate? ## Certified pros based in Woodside ✔ EPA-certified firm Lead inspection / evaluation ### EcoPro Environmental Inc.

EPA certifies firms and individuals there, and EPA's locator is the official lookup. * In New York City, Local Law 1 of 2004 places lead-paint duties on landlords of older multiple dwellings where young children live. NYC HPD explains the current inspection and XRF-testing requirements. * Lead-based paint inspections and risk assessments in pre-1978 housing must be done by EPA-certified inspectors or risk assessors working for an EPA-certified firm.
