Lead testing
in Hell's Kitchen.

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.

A contractor requesting testing in Hell's Kitchen should include the address, work areas, painted components that may be disturbed, access limits, planned tasks, and the date the result is needed for planning. Add the entry contact and identify shared or occupied spaces. A room-by-room request gives the testing scope something concrete to follow before a crew starts work.

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 the contractor's painted-component question. Use dust wipes for settled dust or a post-work question, with laboratory analysis required. If both questions affect the job, separate them in the request and identify where each method applies. That keeps a paint finding from being treated as a dust finding and helps the contractor plan around the correct report type.

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.

The report should identify the tested work areas and components, method, and any area that could not be accessed within the agreed scope. Keep it with the contractor's work records and compare it only to the scope it describes. It does not prescribe the contractor's repair method, certify every work area, or cover surfaces omitted from the request.
