WHAT WE TEST

Paint or dust?

01

XRF paint testing

Checks tested painted surfaces for lead. For renovation planning or documenting paint conditions.

02

Dust-wipe sampling

Measures lead in settled dust. Samples go to a laboratory, so report timing depends on analysis.

For an owner record, start with the address, rooms, painted components, access limits, and planned work. The neighborhood can orient the request, but property details decide what should be tested and reported.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

A few questions,
answered.

How should tested areas be labeled?

Send the address, rooms or components, access limits, planned work, and the decision deadline. If you need dust wipes, explain the dust question so the scope and timing are clear.

Use labels that another person can match to the property. For a Bushwick owner record, combine the room name with a component or location, such as a bedroom window, kitchen door, or hallway trim. Keep labels consistent with any floor plan, work order, or access note. If a label is uncertain, describe the location in plain language rather than guessing.

Should I request XRF or dust wipes?

XRF fits a question about painted components. Dust wipes fit a settled-dust or post-work question and require laboratory analysis. One project may need one method or both.

XRF results should be tied to the painted component that was examined. Dust-wipe results should be tied to the sampled surface and room, because they address settled dust in a particular location. When both methods are requested, use separate labels for each purpose. That structure helps an owner compare the report with planned work without confusing a component result with a dust sample.

What will the report cover?

A report covers the areas and components included in the agreed scope. It does not cover inaccessible areas or decide repairs, transactions, or other requirements outside that scope.

Before receiving the Bushwick report, confirm that its location names match the intake list. Ask that inaccessible or omitted areas be identified clearly and that the report state the requested scope. Keep your own photos, work orders, and later repair notes in the same file, but do not add those later records to the testing scope unless the work is separately arranged.
