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 a house renovation, list rooms, windows, porches, stairs, and exterior surfaces separately. Update the scope before a changed plan reaches a new painted component.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

A few questions,
answered.

Should a New Dorp porch be tested with the kitchen?

Only if both areas are in the agreed renovation scope. List the interior and exterior components separately so the report reflects where work will occur.

For a New Dorp house renovation, list the kitchen, bedrooms, porch, stairs, windows, siding, and other exterior components separately. Note which surfaces the contractor will disturb and how the inspector can reach them. A porch and a kitchen may be scheduled in one project, but separate labels keep interior and exterior findings clear. Update the request before the work reaches a newly added painted surface.

Does an older New Dorp house automatically need the same NYC process as a rental building?

No. Applicability depends on property type, construction year, occupancy, and other facts. Use current HPD guidance for the specific property.

An older house does not automatically follow the same process as every rental or multiple dwelling. Applicability can depend on property type, construction year, occupancy, the planned work, and other facts. Use the specific address and project details when reviewing NYC requirements. Current HPD guidance can help identify questions for the owner, contractor, or compliance adviser.

What does New Dorp XRF testing tell a renovator?

It identifies lead-based paint on tested components. It does not approve the work, perform correction, or establish that untested surfaces are safe or clear.

New Dorp XRF testing identifies lead-based paint on the tested components. It does not approve the renovation, repair a surface, perform abatement, or prove that untested paint is safe or clear. Give the renovator the location-specific findings and any access limitations. Keep dust-wipe sampling, repair, containment, and agency review separate when the project requires those steps.
