"The service of Soto Tree Landscaping outshined all my expectations from start to finish of my project. Daniel was responsive and always very professional. He was knowledgeable about what needed to be done. I was promptly emailed an invoice with all the details along with a timeline. The project consisted of a 4 year accumulation of overgrown trees and shrubs along with leaves and vines all over. Daniels team were so meticulous! I have never experienced this above and beyond service. I would definitely recommend Daniel for all landscaping needs. He is a real gem to work with and I will be hiring him again."

"Fast, efficient, and friendly. Jesus arrived on time for the estimate. They removed a ton of landscaping rock from my property in a few short hours, and also hauled away some junk for me. I was very impressed with Olive Branch and will hire them again the next time I need any yard or landscaping work done. 10/10 for the work!!"

"Great from first call through completion of work. On top of that, Alex is amazing. She was on the job site for the majority of it and even pointed out a very few leaves they had left I would strongly recommend them. We had trees and poison oak and poison ivy removed. They even removed the stumps so no growing back. Very quick response as well"

"Junk Wizard was the first business to respond to my request to haul away an old piece of large furniture. Their bid turned out to be the low bid. They were able to schedule the pick up in two days, showed up promptly, and removed the furniture."

"Our remodeled kitchen exceeded all expectations. Leoni’s eye for design brought our ideas to life, creating an open and functional layout perfect for entertaining. The team’s craftsmanship was top-notch, and they respected our home, leaving it clean each day. The project was finished on time and within budget, and our kitchen now feels like a welcoming and sophisticated part of our home. I’d recommend McCormick to anyone wanting a home transformation without stress!"

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

Some companies offer hazardous waste removal, but additional fees and special handling procedures may be required.

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. 

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.
