Use the housing assessment resource for the initial question
Pomona’s observed Housing Programs excerpts describe LEAC testing and possible improvements when hazards are found. A city brochure provides a Housing contact, but these materials do not establish a property finding or current application capacity. City resource.
Identify the room or exterior feature, the visible condition and the work you are considering. Keep any existing assessment report with its date and location. A description of a program does not replace an assessment of the actual surface, and a citywide housing statistic cannot supply that missing information.
Describe the surface and proposed work without diagnosing it
Ask Housing about current assessment and program instructions before treating the project as an ordinary finish refresh. Explain which questions remain unanswered and which records you already hold. Do not create new disturbance or attempt sampling just to make the enquiry more complete.
When discussing the proposed scope, distinguish the desired finished appearance from the work that may be needed after appropriate assessment. Give any relevant professional the existing records and confirm who will resolve the unanswered questions. This guide provides no test interpretation, removal method or assurance that a listed provider handles specialist work.
Project questions
Does Pomona’s LEAC resource show that my home has a lead hazard?
No. A program description is not a finding about an individual home. Use actual property records and ask Housing for current assessment instructions rather than inferring a hazard or available funded work.
What should I describe before requesting Pomona paint-surface work?
Describe the affected area, visible condition, known earlier records and the work being considered. Identify what remains unknown without performing or interpreting a test to prepare the request.

For a rented home, confirm who can authorize alterations. In a shared building, ask about access and work rules. A citywide construction period does not establish the age, condition or safety requirements of an individual home; check the property records and the specific project.
