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.
Sunnyside access may involve owner, co-op, contractor, or preservation contacts. Keep approval logistics separate from lead findings and name the rooms and components included in testing.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
A few questions,
answered.
Does Sunnyside Gardens designation decide lead testing?
No. Historic designation and lead requirements are separate. Confirm the building, occupancy, construction, work, and applicable NYC rules.
A Sunnyside Gardens designation does not decide the lead-testing scope. Treat preservation status and lead requirements as separate project tracks. State the building, occupancy, construction information, painted components, planned work, access restrictions, and decision needed. If a preservation review is also required, keep its approvals and conditions separate from XRF readings, dust results, and other lead documentation.
What access approvals may matter in Sunnyside?
An owner, co-op board, contractor, or preservation contact may control entry or alterations. Record those logistics without treating them as lead findings.
Access may require coordination among an owner, co-op board, contractor, property manager, or preservation contact. Name the person who can open each requested space and record any approval or alteration restriction before scheduling. These logistics explain what could be entered; they do not establish whether lead is present. Keep unavailable rooms and delayed approvals visible in the inspection record.
Is dust clearance the same as historic-preservation approval?
No. Dust clearance addresses laboratory results under a defined procedure. Preservation approval is a separate project question.
Dust clearance is a laboratory result under a defined sampling and project procedure. Historic-preservation approval addresses a different question about proposed work or alterations. One does not replace the other. If a Sunnyside renovation needs both, list the painted areas, dust decision, and preservation decision separately so each reviewer receives the evidence needed for that part of the project. Keep the two approval paths documented separately from the start. This avoids mixing project permissions with test findings. Keep those records with the final scope.
