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.

List rooms, porches, exterior stairs, window exteriors, and common areas only when the contractor’s work reaches them. Update the request before new surfaces are disturbed.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

A few questions,
answered.

Should Tottenville porch work be included with interior rooms?

Include it only when the porch is part of the agreed work. List the exterior component separately so access and findings are clear.

For Tottenville porch work, list the porch, exterior stairs, window exteriors, siding, interior rooms, and common areas as separate locations. Include only components that belong to the agreed contractor scope, and describe how each area can be reached. If the work changes, send the revised list before a new painted surface is disturbed. This keeps exterior and interior findings easy to follow.

Does a Tottenville test cover every painted surface?

No. It covers the selected, reachable components in the scope. A broader conclusion needs a broader inspection request.

A Tottenville test covers the selected, reachable components in the agreed scope. It does not cover every painted surface simply because the surfaces are at one address or look similar. Name added rooms, elevations, windows, doors, or trim before the work reaches them. If access is blocked, keep the limitation visible rather than treating the area as tested.

What does Tottenville testing not do?

It does not perform repair, abatement, dust clearance, or agency review. Those steps depend on the project and applicable requirements.

Testing does not perform repair, abatement, dust clearance, filing, or agency review. XRF concerns lead in tested painted components; dust-wipe sampling is a separate collection and laboratory process when required. If an HPD notice, renovation rule, or program instruction applies, match the testing plan to that requirement and review current HPD guidance for the address. This is especially important when an exterior component and an interior room are scheduled on different access routes. HPD paint-testing guidance.
