What is the Lead Exposure Risk Statement (CREP)?
As part of a rental
What is it ?
Lead is usually present in older paints.
The CREP (or Lead diagnosis) consists of measuring the lead concentration of the coatings of the dwelling to identify those containing lead and describe their state of conservation.
It makes it possible to identify situations of risk of lead poisoning in children or deterioration of housing.
The lessor must have this diagnosis carried out by a certified professional.
Which accommodations are concerned?
The CREP must be carried out in case of renting a dwelling (apartment, detached house) built before 1949.
Who carries out the diagnosis ?
You must use a certified diagnostician.
Diagnostic content
The CREP must contain the diagnostician's report.
An information leaflet on the health hazards of lead should be added as an annex.
Transmission of diagnosis
You must integrate the diagnosis with the various diagnoses included in the technical diagnostic file (DDT).
You must give the DDT to the tenant when you sign the lease.
Consequence in the presence of lead
If the CREP finds the presence of lead at concentrations above the threshold of 1 mg/cm², it is necessary to carry out work before renting the dwelling.
How long is the diagnosis valid?
