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.
For a pre-listing file, 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
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.
Before listing a Greenpoint property, decide what the report needs to document and which areas can be accessed. Share the address, unit or rooms, painted components, planned work, visible concerns, and any areas controlled by another person. If the request is for a file rather than immediate work, say that so the scope is written for the intended record instead of an assumed project.
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.
Use XRF for named painted components and dust wipes for a settled-dust question in named locations. Dust wipes require laboratory analysis, so include the dust concern in the initial request. If both methods are relevant before listing, keep the paint and dust objectives separate. This helps the report show exactly what was examined and prevents a narrow result from being read as a property-wide conclusion.
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.
Ask the Greenpoint report to identify the address, areas, components or surfaces, methods, and scope exclusions. Keep listing materials, access notes, and later work records with it, while preserving the difference between a testing record and a transaction decision. If a prospective reviewer asks about an area outside the original request, confirm the scope before presenting the report as responsive.
