"Tim was wonderful. I put in this project on a Saturday night after finding mold behind a piece of furniture in my finished basement. The next morning Tim already reached out looking to set up an appointment Monday morning. Over the phone he explained the possible process of this project and put me in the books first thing Monday morning. He arrived right on time, looked at the area, and again explained everything. After about 15 minutes of doing his inspection, Tim gave me two estimates, which were both fairly priced. I selected the estimate that worked best for me, and Tim got working right away. Throughout the project, he continued to update me with what he was doing and what he had left. From when Tim arrived to when he left, it took him roughly 3.5 hours for the whole project. He did an excellent job, and I would recommend him to anyone."

Tiger Group, Inc. is a Connecticut family owned business providing Inspection Services since 1992. We are licensed and insured. Our 22 highly trained and specialized inspectors provide thorough Residential and Commercial Inspections throughout CT, Western MA, and Westchester, NY. Additionally, we provide Radon and Well Water Testing, and Mold Assessments. We inspect 7 days/week. We look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

"This review is from a seller where an inspection was performed. The heat was not shut off after the inspection and my family and I walked into 90 degree temperatures because the heat was never turned off when the inspection was complete and it was on for 7 hours until we got home. In addition the mud room has a thermostat and electric heater and that was also left on high which we did not realize until the next day. In addition, to prove a point to a potential buyer he forced a hole through the wood in our detached garage reporting that there are signs of water damage. The garage is from 1930, there has been water in the garage especially when we had the hurricane last year but they could have just written that in the report not damage our property to prove a point. Coincidentally, the same inspector came back with another interested buyer and yet another piece of wood was pulled off from the garage. If that is not bad enough, the same inspector gave confidential information from a previous inspection to a new potential buyer which led to another buyer terminating the deal. I know this as our lawyer communicated with the potential buyers attorney and said that the inspector passed on information about a previous inspection he did at our house a week earlier.. in addition, our neighbor and friends were outside during the outside portion of the inspection and they heard the inspector give the potential buyers and their real estate broker information about the last inspection and what the other potential buyers said. So much for confidentiality."

Almost 80 years ago, Charles Apap came to this country from Malta. His first job was that of a painter's apprentice. Three generations later, the Apap family is still passionate about painting homes. The key to our success is simple: we give the customers what they want. Our painting business has prospered as a result of our ability to deliver superior service, extra attention to detail and a dedicated staff. Our employees undergo monthly in house training in safety, customer service, faux finishing techniques, and are kept up to date on the latest painting trade innovations and materials.

"George Apap Painting is a great company to work with. We have used them many, many times in the past and have always been extremely satisfied. Jose was a wonderful painter. He was professional, on time, courteous, meticulous and very respectful of our property from the prep work to the actual painting. He kept the rooms clean and removed all materials. Jose worked diligently, but didn't rush, resulting in an impressive, beautiful job! We are very happy and would highly recommend Jose and the company to anyone. "

Established in 2003. Iris Environmental Laboratories was formed over 10 years ago as environmental testing laboratory that specialized in analyzing asbestos air samples. The company has expanded into an accredited laboratory offering a full range of laboratory and consulting services to the community. The success of IRIS has occured from the dedication of employees, quality of service, and client communications. The company's focus is directed at providing risk management services to our clients, protecting them within regulatory limits from potential environmental liability expense. Emphasis is placed on not over-consulting a project to generate fees.

"We hired Iris to collect and test samples from pipe wrappings in our recently purchased home for asbestos. The tech that came out was polite, thorough, and communicative. The people I spoke with to schedule the appointment and pay the invoice were incredibly polite and prompt to reply, and the final report that they provided was incredibly detailed and easy to understand. Definitely recommend this service if you are testing for asbestos in your home."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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. 

Avoid disturbing suspected lead-containing materials and follow professional guidance on sample collection.

Lead exposure poses significant health risks, including neurological, developmental, and behavioral disorders, especially critical in young children and fetuses.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

Services test for allergens, mold, VOCs, and carbon monoxide levels to ensure a healthy indoor environment.
