"Michael Kuretich thoroughly tested the inside and outside of the house for lead paint. He took many samples from linoleum glue (black tar) on different surfaces and had them tested for asbestos. He came back a few times and tested the air after the removal of lead-containing bathroom tiles and flooring that contained asbestos in the glue. He did not charge me for one of his visits and inspections. His price is really fair while maintaining quality. He is knowledgeable ang gives sound advice. I used one of the companies he recommended for lead and asbestos removal and I was very happy with their work as well.
Another company listed with Angie's List wanted much more for the same service. When I asked why, he said that is the price for and quot;wall-to- wall testing.and quot; Please watch out for crooks.
I highly recommend him.

"Frank and his team at Circle Vision construction performed mold remediation on a home before we moved in.  What initially appeared to be a small spot underneath the kitchen sink turned into a large amount of black mold along the bottoms of most of the cabinets.  Additional mold was found around two of the toilets.  In each of the situations, Frank discussed the severity of the find, and what would be required to remediate it.  Our health is our #1 concern, so we elected to make sure that the mold was completely eradicated.  After each area was complete, it was certified by an independent lab.  Throughout the process, which occurred during a tight schedule to be moved in by a certain date, Frank was always available by phone and email.  Email these days is incredibly helpful as I was able to keep on top of the progress while still managing a hectic time at work.  I can easily recommend Frank and Circle Vision construction for the work they performed in the house."

"I had a pipe brake on the second floor in my house on sunday morning. I found this company online, really liked their website. AllStar Water Damage Company owner Craig Clover Wilcox came out to my house very quickly when heard how serious the flood was. He and his team ripped out all the walls, floors and ceiling that needed to come out; remediated mold that was found in the wall in the bathroom upstairs; and left a lot of professional drying and air filtration equipment for a few days and then they came back and rebuilt every thing they had torn out,also Craig the owner walked me threw the insurance claim process and got me covered. check out their website its full of a lot of information that is very helpful. http://www.allstarwaterdamage.com thank you again, you guys did a wonderful job..."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.

Government regulations such as the EPA and OSHA govern lead removal procedures to ensure health and environmental safety during and after abatement.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed. 

If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air.
