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 mixed-use work, list storefront edges, occupied units, shared stairs, and the person who can open each area. Keep residential and commercial findings separate for the contractor.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

A few questions,
answered.

Can a Fordham test cover a storefront and an apartment?

It can if both areas are listed in the agreed scope and access is available. Ask for separate location labels so the report does not blend residential and commercial findings.

For a mixed-use Fordham property, send a simple area list before the visit. Name the storefront, apartment, entrance, stairs, hallway, basement, and any other requested space. Note which areas are residential, commercial, or shared. The list helps keep access notes and test results tied to the correct location. A result for one area does not describe another area that was not included or reachable.

How should an added Fordham room be handled?

Send the revised work plan for a scope review before the new painted surface is disturbed. Do not assume the original report covers the added room.

If a Fordham renovation adds a room, window, door, trim section, or shared area, pause the scope and request an update before work disturbs the paint. Include the new room name, component, floor, and access contact. Keep the first work plan and the revised work plan identifiable. This makes it clear which painted surfaces were tested and which were added later.

Does a Fordham XRF report replace NYC compliance work?

No. NYC duties depend on property facts and may include separate annual, turnover, correction, or record requirements. Use current HPD guidance for the address.

An XRF report gives information about the painted components included in the inspection. It does not replace NYC compliance review, correction, dust procedures, filings, or agency instructions. If the address has an HPD notice, match the notice location and required next step to the testing request. Read current HPD paint-testing guidance for the property and notice.
