Salisbury Lead Inspections

Salisbury is the largest city on Maryland’s Eastern Shore and home to a mix of historic neighborhoods, student housing, and long-standing rental properties. If your home or rental property was built before 1978, it may still contain lead-based paint, which can pose serious health risks and legal responsibilities if left untested.

Why Lead Inspections Matter in Salisbury

Many homes in Salisbury—especially near downtown, Church Street, Newtown, and older residential areas—were built before lead-based paint was banned. As this paint ages, it can chip, peel, or turn into toxic lead dust, which is especially dangerous for:

  • Children under 6
  • Pregnant women
  • Students and families in rental housing

According to the CDC, there is no safe level of lead exposure for children, making lead inspections critical for protecting health and preventing long-term harm.

Maryland law requires lead inspections for most pre-1978 rental properties, and enforcement applies statewide—including the Eastern Shore.
