The City of Detroit mandates that property owners of rental property that was built before 1978 must have a lead risk assessment performed to determine and remediate lead based paint hazards.
To obtain a lead clearance, the proper lead paint inspections and risk assessment must be performed by a certified lead inspector and necessary documentation must be filed with the city.
Only State of Michigan certified lead inspectors are capable of performing a valid lead risk assessment and lead paint inspection to enable the property owner to obtain a certificate of lead clearance.
