HUD Lead Hazard Reduction & Healthy Homes

Lead-Hazard Reduction & Healthy Homes

Identification and control of lead-based paint hazards in eligible privately-owned rental and owner-occupied target housing — delivered through the HUD Lead Hazard Reduction (LHR) Grant Program and Healthy Homes Supplemental funding arcs. The work scopes are tuned to protect children under 6 from lead poisoning and address broader housing health hazards alongside lead treatment, suited to housing authorities, municipalities, and homeowners pursuing HUD-funded lead hazard control.

Scope

Four nested service arcs our crews mobilize against under HUD LHR and Healthy Homes Supplemental funded work — each delivered with the certified payroll, environmental, and lead-clearance paperwork a Lead Hazard Reduction reviewer expects.

Lead-Based Paint Inspection & Risk Assessment

The pre-work baseline. Paint-by-paint condition assessment or XRF-based inspection of every painted surface, dust-wipe sampling, and a written risk assessment that scopes the eligible hazard-control work.

Typical deliverables

  • Paint-by-paint or XRF-based lead inspection of all painted surfaces
  • Dust-wipe sampling following HUD protocol
  • Visual assessment against HUD LHR evaluation criteria
  • Written risk assessment that scopes eligible hazard-control work
  • Photographic and component-condition log for the program file

Hazard Control & Interim Controls

The field-execution phase. Component replacement, paint stabilization, enclosure, encapsulation, treatment of friction and impact surfaces, and the dust-minimization work practices required by 24 CFR Part 35 and HUD LHR guidelines.

Typical scopes

  • Component replacement for lead-bearing building components
  • Paint stabilization of deteriorated lead-based paint
  • Enclosure and encapsulation of lead-bearing surfaces
  • Friction- and impact-surface treatment
  • Dust-minimization work practices per 24 CFR Part 35 / HUD LHR
  • Occupant protection and on-site containment throughout the work

Healthy Homes Supplemental Interventions

The paired interventions that move the unit beyond lead treatment. Mold and moisture, ventilation, pest, and injury hazards addressed alongside the lead scope so the dwelling is healthier as a whole, not just lead-cleared.

Typical scopes

  • Mold and moisture remediation with source-cause documentation
  • Ventilation upgrades — bath / kitchen exhaust, whole-unit fresh-air paths
  • Pest entry-point sealing and exclusion
  • Injury-hazard remediation — railings, guards, slip-resistant surfaces
  • Integrated sequencing with the lead scope to avoid rework and re-clearance

Clearance & Documentation

The monitor-ready closeout. EPA RRP work practices enforced on every site, post-work dust-wipe clearance, a written occupant protection plan, and the closeout package an LHR grant administrator can pass through review without rework.

Typical deliverables

  • Written occupant protection plan on file before mobilization
  • EPA RRP work practices enforced by RRP-certified crews
  • Post-work dust-wipe clearance to HUD LHR standards
  • Photo log keyed to the inspection / risk assessment → control → clearance arc
  • Closeout package assembled for monitor and grant-administrator review
HUD Compliance Posture

Program alignment

Lead-hazard reduction work under HUD funding brings a specific regulatory anchor set. The list below frames each anchor as we run it on a typical LHR / Healthy Homes Supplemental scope — every engagement runs against the same compliance baseline so the grant administrator’s review path is predictable.

  • HUD Lead Hazard Reduction (LHR) Grant Program. Eligibility runs through the LHR NOFO framework — privately-owned rental and owner-occupied target housing with a child under 6 (or a pregnant woman) in residence, income thresholds per the program NOFO. Grant administrators expect a scope that maps cleanly to the NOFO’s eligible-activity list and that documents beneficiary eligibility before mobilization.
  • 24 CFR Part 35. Lead-Based Paint Poisoning Prevention in Certain Residential Structures. Inspection, risk assessment, occupant protection, work practices, and clearance all run against the Part 35 subparts that apply to the funded activity. Pre-1960 housing is presumed lead-bearing absent testing that clears the structure.
  • EPA RRP Rule (40 CFR Part 745). Renovation, Repair, and Painting. RRP-certified firm and RRP-certified renovator credentials on file; the work practices in the RRP rule applied on every disturbance of painted surfaces in target housing.
  • HUD Healthy Homes Supplemental Guidance. Paired interventions — mold / moisture, ventilation, pest, injury — sequenced with the lead treatment so the unit is healthier as a whole rather than lead-cleared in isolation. The Healthy Homes Supplemental funding arc is invoked where the program elects to pair it with LHR.
  • Davis-Bacon prevailing wage. Applies where the underlying contract triggers prevailing wage coverage. Wage decisions posted, WH-347 certified payroll on the program’s reporting cadence, and on-site interview records maintained for every covered project.

HUD LHR Eligibility Inquiry

Start with the property and program details.

This intake is an inquiry, not an eligibility determination. Share the details below and we’ll review the property and program fit with you before any inspection or work is scheduled.

Working With Us

From intake to clearance

Every HUD-funded lead-hazard engagement runs through the same arc — intake and eligibility confirmation, inspection and risk assessment, written scope, contract and notice to proceed, hazard control with daily field reports, and clearance-driven closeout.

  1. Intake & eligibility confirmation. We confirm target-housing status, child-under-6 (or pregnant-woman) beneficiary criteria, income thresholds per the program NOFO, and whether the Healthy Homes Supplemental funding arc is paired with LHR on this award. No mobilization before eligibility is documented.
  2. Inspection & risk assessment. Paint-by-paint or XRF inspection, dust-wipe sampling, written risk assessment that scopes the eligible hazard-control work — the documents an LHR grant administrator expects before any control work moves forward.
  3. Written scope & proposal. Unit-itemized proposal mapping each line to the inspection’s risk-assessment findings — no bundled numbers that the grant administrator has to unwind later. The Healthy Homes Supplemental line items are kept separate so each funding arc is auditable.
  4. Contract & notice to proceed. Fully executed subcontract, wage decisions posted where Davis-Bacon applies, WH-347 process in flight, written occupant protection plan on file, and the RRP-certified firm / renovator credentials verified before the first truck rolls.
  5. Hazard control. RRP-certified crews, dust-minimization work practices, daily field reports with photo log, occupant protection maintained throughout, change orders in writing before work moves past the original scope.
  6. Clearance & closeout. Post-work dust-wipe clearance to HUD LHR standards, clearance documentation, certified payroll wrap-up, photo log keyed to the inspection / control / clearance arc, and the monitor-ready closeout package the grant administrator can pass through review.
