WHAT WE TEST
Paint or dust?
Dust-wipe sampling
Measures lead in settled dust. Samples go to a laboratory, so report timing depends on analysis.
For repairs, send the work list and mark windows, doors, porches, siding, or interior areas that may be disturbed. Include access limits and the report purpose so testing follows the actual property question.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
A few questions,
answered.
What should I include in a Amityville testing request?
Send the address, planned work, affected rooms or components, access limits, and the decision the report must support. That information helps define a practical scope.
For an Amityville request, send the address, property type, planned work, affected rooms or components, access limits, and the decision the report must support. List interior and exterior areas separately, including windows, doors, porches, siding, or shared spaces. A contractor work list can help define the scope, but inaccessible areas should still be identified.
Should I choose XRF or dust wipes for Amityville?
XRF provides field information about lead in tested painted components. Dust wipes address settled dust and require laboratory analysis. The right method depends on the property question.
Choose XRF when the question concerns lead in named painted components. Choose dust wipes when the question concerns settled dust; those samples require laboratory analysis. Tell us whether you need paint information, dust information, or both, and identify the rooms or surfaces involved. XRF does not measure settled dust, and a dust result does not survey every painted component.
Can testing replace repairs or agency review?
No. Testing documents the areas and conditions examined. Repairs, clearance, permits, inspections, or other decisions remain separate and depend on the property and project.
Testing documents the areas and conditions examined. It does not repair damaged paint, perform cleanup, issue a permit, or replace an agency decision. If a reviewer needs specific documentation, send that request before testing. For renovation that may disturb painted surfaces in a pre-1978 property, EPA's RRP guidance is a separate lead-safe work question. EPA RRP guidance.
