WHAT WE TEST
Checks tested painted surfaces for lead. For renovation planning or documenting paint conditions.
Measures lead in settled dust. Samples go to a laboratory, so report timing depends on analysis.
For a renovation or occupancy question, start with the address, rooms, painted components, access limits, and planned work. The neighborhood can orient the request, but property details decide what should be tested and reported.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Send the address, rooms or components, access limits, planned work, and the decision deadline. If you need dust wipes, explain the dust question so the scope and timing are clear.
A Washington Heights renovation request should list the address, rooms affected, painted components that may be disturbed, access limits, planned work, and the decision deadline. Identify any occupied or shared spaces and note whether the request concerns one phase or the full planned work. A focused room list lets the testing scope support the renovation question without assuming that every area needs the same method.
XRF fits a question about painted components. Dust wipes fit a settled-dust or post-work question and require laboratory analysis. One project may need one method or both.
Use XRF for painted components in the renovation area. Use dust wipes for settled dust or a post-work question, with laboratory analysis required. If both methods are relevant, separate their rooms and purposes in the request. This protects the distinction between a result about paint and a result about dust and gives the project file a clearer explanation of what was tested.
A report covers the areas and components included in the agreed scope. It does not cover inaccessible areas or decide repairs, transactions, or other requirements outside that scope.
The report should cover the rooms and components included in the agreed renovation scope, identify the method used, and note access limits. Keep it with the project records and the phase description. Testing documents the included areas; it does not select repairs, confirm every renovation surface, or provide conclusions for locations that were not accessible or requested.
