"The guys from Central Valley Environmental did a great job removing our popcorn ceilings with asbestos. Mike was great through the preliminary stages and walked us through everything we needed to do before they got started. He answered all of my millions of questions and got us scheduled and set up even faster than expected. After a little miscommunication about light fixture removal/reinstallation Mike helped to take care of us and get it taken care of. Thank you guys for the great work. Hoping the rest of our renovations go this smooth."
