WHAT WE TEST
Paint or dust?
Dust-wipe sampling
Measures lead in settled dust. Samples go to a laboratory, so report timing depends on analysis.
For Nassau or Suffolk coverage, use the exact address, county, municipality, property age, and work plan. Brooklyn and Queens are NYC locations, so this page does not describe their service or rules.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
A few questions,
answered.
What should I include in a Long Island testing request?
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 Long Island request, provide the exact address and county, municipality, property type, planned work, affected rooms or components, access limits, and report purpose. Nassau and Suffolk properties require address-specific planning, so a regional label is not enough. List apartments, shared areas, storefronts, accessory spaces, and exterior work separately when they are part of the request.
Should I choose XRF or dust wipes for Long Island?
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.
XRF provides field information about tested painted components. Dust wipes address settled dust and require laboratory analysis. Choose by the property question: paint testing for named surfaces, dust sampling for settled dust, or both when needed. An XRF result is not a dust result, and a dust-wipe result does not establish the condition of every painted surface. This page is for Nassau and Suffolk service planning, not Brooklyn or Queens.
Can testing replace repairs or agency review?
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 documents the areas examined. It does not complete repairs, cleanup, permitting, clearance, or review by a municipality, agency, owner, or other decision-maker. If someone requested a particular area list or report purpose, provide it before scheduling. EPA's RRP guidance covers a separate lead-safe work question for applicable renovation. EPA RRP guidance.
