New Jersey lead-safe housing
Start with the right inspection for your property.
Certain non-exempt older rental properties are subject to New Jersey’s lead-based paint inspection requirements. The inspection method varies by municipality and property circumstances. A visual assessment and dust wipe sampling are different methods, and a lead-safe certificate is different from a lead-free certificate.
For landlords, homeowners, and property managers who want clear answers before a rental turnover, property purchase, or planned work.
Check your existing documents and confirm current requirements with your municipality before relying on a previous inspection. The New Jersey DCA rental inspection guidance explains the state program.

Your questions, answered
Hudson County inspection FAQ
Do all Hudson County rentals need the same inspection?
No. The municipality, property age, exemptions, and existing certificates can affect the requirement. Start with your town rather than assuming one method applies throughout Hudson County. We can discuss the unit and help you identify the next step before you arrange access.
Can you help with a purchase or renovation?
Yes. Tell us whether you need to understand painted surfaces, settled dust, or broader property conditions. XRF testing and dust wipe sampling answer different questions. Discuss your planned work or purchase timeline so the inspection can focus on what you need to know.
What does an inspection cost?
Visual assessment inspections start at $200 per unit. Dust wipe inspections start at $200 per unit, plus laboratory fees per sample. Ask us to confirm the scope and total cost for your property before booking. Lead overview and pre-inspection guidance are free.
What should I send before booking in Hudson County?
Send the street address, municipality, number of units, reason for testing, and any deadline. Include existing reports or certificates if you have them. For properties in Jersey City, Union City, or other busy neighborhoods, share parking instructions, building entry details, and any elevator or superintendent arrangements. Confirm access with each tenant ahead of the appointment.
Will my property automatically receive a lead-safe certificate?
A certificate depends on the applicable inspection and its findings. Booking a visit does not guarantee a passing result. If hazards are identified, we explain the findings and discuss the next steps, including remediation referrals when appropriate.
