"I had just joined Home Advisor and was looking for someone who could help me get the material in my attic tested, and if necessary, abate any asbestos that was found. Before I even had a chance to look at the suggested companies I got a call from Mike F. of Central Valley Environmental. He had seen my listing. was in Merced and offered to come by. He got a sample from my attic, told me who to send it to and how to send it. I was lucky, the analysis of my sample showed no asbestos. But if it hadn't, I would have hired CVE to do the work. Mike made it so easy for me. Thanks!"

"I'm very happy with the work that was done by Landmark construction and energy crew. At first, we met with Ron that came over and met with us about the issues that we had with our water heater and with the bills that we currently pay for electric. Ron recommended us to replace the bulky old water heater and to install a tankless system that will supply hot water immediately and with the use of less gas. We liked that idea and we decided to go for this project. Ron came over to our house with his 2 people that basically took care of all the removal and the installation of the new system. The work that they did took only 2 days from start to finish and now we have more space at the garage, and the bills are much lower than before…."
