WHAT WE TEST
Checks tested painted surfaces for lead. For renovation planning or documenting paint conditions.
Measures lead in settled dust. Samples go to a laboratory, so report timing depends on analysis.
If the work affects windows, doors, trim, or walls, send the room list and access limits. That lets testing focus on painted components tied to the alteration instead of treating the whole property as one scope.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
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 a Floral Park request, add the property type and the work sequence if known. Mention whether painted windows, doors, trim, walls, siding, or another component will be disturbed, and identify any rooms that cannot be entered. If the question is for renovation planning, include the planned work area; if it is for a condition review, describe the concern. A short scope note is more useful than a whole-property request.
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.
Use XRF when the decision concerns lead in specific painted components and you need field results from those surfaces. Consider dust wipes when the question concerns settled dust after work, cleaning, damage, or another event; those samples are sent for laboratory analysis. A request can discuss both methods, but name the separate decisions each result must support. Do not treat a dust result as a substitute for paint testing or the reverse.
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 gives you documented observations and results for the locations included in the scope. It does not perform repairs, remove hazards, provide permits, or decide what an agency requires. For a Floral Park project, keep the report with the contractor, owner, consultant, or agency materials that govern the next step. If a notice or permit is involved, provide its wording so the testing scope can be checked against that separate requirement.
