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 a Smithtown property, provide the exact address and work list before quoting. Identify occupied areas, access limits, painted components, and whether the decision needs paint results, dust results, or both.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
A few questions,
answered.
What should I include in a Smithtown 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 Smithtown request, provide the exact address and identify whether the work is inside, outside, in a shared area, or in an accessory space. List rooms and painted components that may be disturbed, note access limits, and explain whether the report supports renovation, maintenance, rental use, purchase review, or another decision. Send a written town or village scope when available.
Should I choose XRF or dust wipes for Smithtown?
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. State whether you need paint results, dust results, or both, and name the surfaces or rooms involved. The methods are distinct: XRF does not measure settled dust, and dust wipes do not establish lead content in every painted component.
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, inspection, or agency review. If an owner, contractor, or reviewer specified the report purpose, provide that instruction before the appointment. A report should be read with the project scope and not treated as proof that untested areas are clear. EPA's RRP guidance covers a separate lead-safe work question. EPA RRP guidance.
