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 a mixed-use access plan, 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.

Can separate areas be included?

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.

Separate areas in the request when a DUMBO property combines residential, commercial, or shared access. List each apartment, office or storefront area only if it belongs in the decision, and identify entrances, corridors, stairs, or other shared spaces separately. Include access windows and any areas that cannot be entered. This makes a mixed-use scope practical to schedule and review.

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.

For each separate area, state whether the question concerns painted components or settled dust. XRF addresses selected painted surfaces; dust wipes address settled dust and require laboratory analysis. A sample from one area does not characterize another area, and a painted-component result does not answer a post-work dust question. Keeping locations separate is especially important when different occupants control access.

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.

A DUMBO report should show which areas and components were included, which method applied to each, and what remained outside the scope. Compare those entries with the access plan and work order before using the report. If the project later includes another tenant area, shared route, or new concern, request a scope review instead of assuming the original report extends automatically.
