Wisconsin Lead-Safe Firm Certification

Wisconsin administers its own lead program through the Department of Health Services (Asbestos & Lead Section). Contractors disturbing paint in pre-1978 Wisconsin properties need a Wisconsin Lead Company certification, a separate credential from the federal EPA firm certification.

The Wisconsin Lead Company certification is valid two or four years, depending on the term you choose, and can be filed through the state’s WALDO online portal or on paper with a check. It requires an associated certified individual. We prepare your WALDO (or paper) filing and guide it through submission.
