South Carolina is an EPA-administered state, which means lead-safe firm certification for South Carolina contractors is issued directly by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Any South Carolina firm paid to disturb paint in pre-1978 housing or child-occupied facilities must hold this certification before advertising for or performing the work.
Because South Carolina does not run its own program, we file your application through the EPA’s CDX system as your authorized agent. The all-in cost in South Carolina is $429: our $129 service fee plus the EPA’s $300 filing fee, and the certificate is valid for five years.
We file for South Carolina contractors statewide, including Charleston, Columbia, Greenville, Myrtle Beach.
We also file in all EPA-administered states. Read the full guide →
