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.
Separate storefront, apartment, corridor, and other work zones in the request. Keep XRF findings distinct from later dust collection or laboratory reporting when the plan changes.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
A few questions,
answered.
Should a Mott Haven storefront and apartment share one scope?
They may be scheduled together, but list each use and component separately. This keeps the report aligned with the different work areas.
A Mott Haven mixed-use request should identify the storefront, apartment, corridor, stair, entrance, and other work zones separately. State which components belong to each use and which areas are shared. This helps the visit follow the contractor's work plan and prevents a residential result from being read as a commercial or common-area result. Include access contacts for spaces that require different entry arrangements.
Does Mott Haven XRF testing include dust clearance?
No. XRF identifies lead-based paint on tested components. Dust clearance uses a separate collection and laboratory process when the project requires it.
XRF testing and dust clearance answer different questions. XRF checks lead in the painted components tested in the field. Dust-wipe work collects settled dust for laboratory analysis when the project or applicable procedure requires it. Do not describe an XRF result as a dust clearance result, and do not assume that a dust result replaces paint testing for surfaces that will be disturbed.
What records should a Mott Haven owner retain?
Keep the marked work scope, access notes, XRF report, photographs, repair records, and any lab result together. Follow any additional program or agency record rule that applies.
Keep the Mott Haven project file in one place: the marked scope, access notes, XRF report, photographs, repair records, and any laboratory result. Label each record by area and date so a reviewer can follow the work sequence. Additional program, agency, or HPD instructions may require other records. A testing report alone does not perform correction or close a case. HPD paint-testing guidance.
