"Daniel was fantastic. His work exceeded my wildest dreams. The patio and front look great. Cleaned up, trimmed and trashed removed. Due to the high winds my townhouse was a mess. Now it is ready for the white glove test and I don't have to worry. Daniel is going to come back in the spring and do a spring yard clean up for me. By the way, he rates were very reasonable and it was able to do the work the same day! That was especially important since we are now on Covid lock down in our area starting this weekend. Karen"

"I'm grateful to have met Mike with Better Gardening and Landscaping. He was recommended by my local irrigation supplier (Lane Irrigation) when all else failed to fix my irrigation problems myself. Mike has decades of experience and knowledge that made me feel I was in the right hands. I really appreciated that he went through every possible scenario and even taught me a few trouble shooting things to look out for myself, should a problem arise again. Everything is working smooth as a whistle now and he also took the time to give me some advice on some of my plants that weren't looking so great. Thank you Mike, you are definitely my go to guy now!"

"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"

"Oliver Branch replaced the concrete in our garage. They outlined every step they were going to take in the process, as well as communicated to me an estimate beforehand. They installed the necessary components and removed/hauled away the old existing cement. The team is meticulous with their work, and they completed the job on time. I'd recommend this company for any landscape/concrete work."

"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."

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

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

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.

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. 

The safest way to remove lead-based paint is by letting a professional take over. For most people, lead paint removal costs an average of $3,400. You should never attempt to dry sand old lead-based paint surfaces by hand. Most professionals use a paint stripper to do the job followed by wet scraping, but if you don’t want to remove lead paint, another option is to paint over it. Only consider this option if the old lead paint finish isn’t flaking or cracked.

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.
