Lead paint inspections are commonly required for rental properties, property sales, and to resolve Rhode Island Department of Health lead violations, particularly when children under six may occupy the unit.

Homes built before 1978 are more likely to contain lead‑based paint, which was widely used before it was banned for residential use.

In Rhode Island, many pre‑1978 properties require certified lead inspections and compliance documentation — especially for rentals, sales, or renovations.

CLASS specializes in inspecting pre‑1978 buildings and can help determine whether lead hazards exist and what steps are required for compliance.

If you suspect lead paint, especially in a home built before 1978, contact a Rhode Island‑certified lead inspector.

Do not disturb painted surfaces until testing is complete. CLASS can evaluate your property and provide clear, compliant guidance.
