At Charm City Lead and Rental Inspections, we provide fast, reliable, and Maryland-certified lead inspection services throughout Hyattsville and Prince George’s County, helping homeowners, landlords, buyers, and contractors stay safe, compliant, and protected.
Why Lead Inspections Matter in Hyattsville
Hyattsville has a high concentration of older homes, particularly in neighborhoods like Historic Hyattsville, University Hills, and Chillum. Lead-based paint was commonly used in these homes, and as it ages, it can chip, peel, or create dangerous lead dust.
Lead exposure is especially harmful to:
Children under 6
Pregnant women
Families living in older rental housing
According to the CDC, there is no safe level of lead exposure for children, making lead inspections a critical step for protecting health and avoiding long-term consequences.
Maryland law requires lead inspections for most pre-1978 rental properties, and Prince George’s County actively enforces compliance.
