Lead Paint Remediation & NYC HPD / Westchester Violation Removal in Yonkers & Westchester
Facing an urgent NYC HPD Class C lead paint violation, failed a Local Law 31 XRF inspection, need a Yonkers or Westchester Lead Rental Registry certificate, or found peeling lead paint in your pre-1978 home? Ordinary painters and handymen are legally barred from disturbing lead hazards and dry scraping or sanding spreads toxic lead dust across your entire building. Wil’s Disinfecting Services, LLC uses sealed plastic containment, HEPA-filtered tools, and EPA-compliant paint stabilization, encapsulation, and friction-surface removal so your property passes independent dust-wipe clearance testing on the first try.
Lead Paint Situations We Solve Every Day
​Property managers, facility directors, and commercial landlords rely on our crew to prevent the four biggest winter emergencies:
1. NYC HPD Class C Lead Paint Violation Dismissal (Local Law 1 & Turnover Violations)
Did NYC HPD issue an immediately hazardous Class C violation for peeling lead paint or flag an apartment where a child under age 6 resides? If you miss HPD’s strict correction deadline, the city can send its own Emergency Repair Program (ERP) crew, bill you thousands of dollars, and slap up to $1,500–$5,000 in civil penalties on your building. We mobilize fast, perform compliant wet-scraping, stabilization, or abatement, coordinate third-party dust-wipe clearance, and prepare all contractor affidavits needed to dismiss your HPD violation.
2. Local Law 31 XRF Failure & Local Law 123 Window / Door Friction Surface Remediation
Did your building’s mandatory Local Law 31 XRF inspection flag lead paint at or above the 0.5 mg/cm² threshold? Or do you need to meet NYC Local Law 123 mandates requiring lead remediation on all window and door friction surfaces before the July 2027 deadline (or within 3 years of a young child moving in)? We strip, enclose, or replace high-friction window channels, sills, Wells, door jambs, and baseboards so surfaces are 100% smooth, cleanable, and compliant.
3. Yonkers & Westchester County Lead Rental Registry & DOH Compliance
Own a pre-1980 multi-family property in Yonkers (ZIP codes 10701 or 10705), Mount Vernon (10550), New Rochelle (10801), or elsewhere in Westchester County? Under the NYS Lead Rental Registry Law and Westchester County Department of Health (WCDOH) mandates, deteriorated paint and lead dust hazards must be remediated by an EPA-certified contractor to obtain or renew your 3-year Lead Safety Certificate. We handle the complete remediation and dust-free cleanup so your units pass re-inspection without delay.
4. Residential Lead-Safe Paint Stabilization for Homeowners & Co-Op Renovations
Buying, renovating, or raising a family in a pre-1978 house, brownstone, or co-op apartment? Before you remodel or move a baby into a room with alligatoring or chipping paint on radiators, crown molding, windows, or trim, our crew isolates the room, safely stabilizes or encapsulates the lead paint, and leaves your home completely free of microscopic lead dust.
Our 5-Step Zero-Dust Lead Remediation & Clearance Process
Property managers, facility directors, and landlords hire us to eliminate these 4 winter headaches:
XRF / Violation Review & Upfront Written Scope
Text or email us your NYC HPD violation notice, third-party XRF test report, or Westchester DOH order or book a free on-site walkthrough. Founder William A. Valerio reviews every affected surface and gives you a clear, itemized written quote.
1
6-Mil Poly Containment & Warning Signage
Before touching a single square inch of paint, we seal off the work area with heavy-duty 6-mil plastic sheeting, cover all vents and floors, protect unmovable belongings, and set up negative-air HEPA filtration so zero lead dust escapes into hallways or living spaces.
2
Wet Scraping, Encapsulation, Enclosure or Component Removal
We never dry-sand or use open-flame torches that vaporize toxic lead. Depending on your violation or building requirements, we use wet-scraping methods, HEPA-shrouded tools, elastomeric lead encapsulant coatings, rigid drywall/trim enclosure, or full window and door component replacement.
3
Three-Stage HEPA Vacuuming & Wet Detergent Wash
Passing a laboratory dust-wipe test comes down to microscopic cleanup. Once priming and painting are complete, we perform a meticulous HEPA-Sandwich clean: vacuuming every floor, sill, and trough with certified True HEPA vacuums, wet-washing with lead-specific cleaning solution to bind heavy metal particles, and finishing with a final HEPA pass.
4
Independent Dust-Wipe Lab Testing & Violation Sign-Off Paperwork
By law, the contractor performing the work cannot self-test. We coordinate directly with an independent, EPA-accredited environmental inspector to collect dust wipes from floors (<5 µg/ft²), window sills (<40 µg/ft²), and window wells (<100 µg/ft²). Once the lab results pass, we hand you the complete notarized contractor paperwork to submit to NYC HPD, DOHMH, or Westchester DOH.

Frequently Asked Questions About Lead Paint Remediation
Can my building super or regular painter fix an NYC HPD lead paint violation?
No. NYC HPD, DOHMH, and Westchester DOH strictly require that any work disturbing lead-based paint or correcting a lead violation be performed by an EPA-certified firm using lead-safe containment practices. HPD will reject violation dismissal paperwork if you cannot provide valid EPA contractor credentials and independent dust-wipe lab results.
What is the difference between lead paint stabilization, encapsulation, and abatement?
Stabilization repairs peeling or chipping paint by wet-scraping loose flakes and repainting under lead-safe containment. Encapsulation applies a specialized, government-approved thick liquid barrier bond that seals lead paint permanently underneath. Abatement permanently removes the lead-painted component (such as replacing old wood window sashes or door frames) or encloses it behind new drywall or aluminum cladding.
What happens if my apartment fails the dust-wipe clearance test?
When you hire Wil’s Disinfecting Services, we stand behind our cleanup. Because we use a three-stage HEPA vacuum and lead-binding wet wash protocol prior to testing, our jobs pass strict NYC and NYS lab thresholds (including the 5 µg/ft² floor standard). If any surface ever requires a re-clean before clearance, we re-clean it at no additional labor charge.
How fast can you start if I have an HPD Class C deadline or closing date?
We operate 24/7 Monday through Saturday out of 915 Yonkers Ave, Yonkers, NY 10704. We can review your violation notice the same day you call (929) 523-8704 and mobilize a crew within 24 to 48 hours across Yonkers, Westchester, The Bronx, Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, and Orange County.
