Meet Adam Bernon – Protecting Cleveland Families & Helping Landlords Comply

Adam Bernon, Ohio Licensed Lead Inspector
Ohio Licensed
Certified Lead Inspector

Hi, I'm Adam Bernon, owner of Reliable Low Cost Lead Testing LLC. As a fully licensed and certified lead assessment professional, I personally handle every inspection. I started this company because Cleveland landlords and homeowners needed affordable, reliable lead testing without the runaround.

My commitment is simple: protect children, support responsible landlords, and make the certification process as painless as possible. I hold the necessary certifications from the Ohio Department of Health and am fully licensed to conduct clearance examinations, risk assessments, and XRF inspections throughout Northeast Ohio.

Based in Beachwood and serving all of Greater Cleveland, I understand the local rental market and the City of Cleveland's Lead-Safe Housing Program requirements. When you call me, you're getting local expertise and personal service – not a corporate call center.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need lead certification for my rental?

Yes, if your property was built before 1978 and is located in Cleveland city limits. It's the law for rental registration. Fines for non-compliance can be severe, and you cannot legally rent the property without certification.

How long does the certification last?

Cleveland clearance certificates are valid for 1 year for rental properties. XRF inspections showing no lead can qualify for a 20-year exemption from the ordinance requirements.

What if my property fails the inspection?

We provide a detailed report of the issues found. You'll need to address the lead hazards (we can recommend trusted contractors), then schedule a re-inspection. We offer discounted re-inspection rates for previous clients.

Can I do the inspection myself?

No. The City of Cleveland requires inspections to be performed by state-licensed and certified lead professionals. Only certified inspectors can submit official documentation to the city.

How soon can you schedule me?

Usually within 24-48 hours. During busy season (spring/summer), we recommend calling early for best availability. We also offer evening and weekend appointments for a small surcharge.

Do you work with Section 8/housing choice voucher properties?

Absolutely. We're experienced with HUD requirements and can coordinate with housing authorities to ensure all necessary documentation is provided for voucher program compliance.
