We are a family owned and operated Public Adjusting Firm that has been open since 1987. For over 30 years we have assisted homeowners through the property claims process and have bolstered our business based on our efforts to not only get the greatest settlement possible for our clients, but also by conducting ourselves as courteous professionals who treat our customers with a great deal of respect and consideration. Unfortunately the time when we usually meet for the first time is after some sort of tragic or catastrophic event in the life of a homeowner, i.e. a collapsed roof or burst stack pipe. However, given our attention to detail, knowledge of construction and vast amount of experience we are fully capable of walking you through these no doubt difficult to deal with situations and we can help you come out of it with a great sigh of relief and often a notion of surprise at how great and quick a settlement can come from the claims adjusting process. Give us a call for a free home walk-through and policy evaluation!

"????? Highly Recommended Review: Funari Public Adjusters I am writing to share my experience with Funari Public Adjusters, and I cannot say enough about the exceptional service provided by the owners, Chris and Vito, and their entire team of experts. From the very first call, they were immediately available and responsive, helping me during my critical time of need. The team went above and beyond in every aspect?from assigning a dedicated representative to handle my claim, to guiding me through the entire process from start to finish. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, professional, and extremely helpful whenever I had questions. I have used this company on three separate occasions, and each time they exceeded my expectations: When a neighbor?s tree fell on the back portion of my home. When I experienced a theft at my rental property, resulting in damages and losses. Most recently, after heavy rains caused significant roof damage to my home, including my top-floor"

"We purchased a house earlier this year in NW Philadelphia. To make a long story short, we ended up with high lead dust test results. With two little ones, I was in a complete panic. I called a number of companies, and I was getting told all sorts of levels to which I was going to need to take in order to have my house safe for my children. I ended up calling CES and speaking with Mike Fox, the owner. From the first conversation, he helped ease my mind. He talked me through the process, he repeated the information as many times as I needed to hear it, he was calm and knowledgeable. What I appreciated most, is that he didn't take advantage of a scared parent. When it came time to have his team come in and clean, Mike did not call the job complete until everything tested under the levels so my family could move into the house and be safe, but also FEEL safe. Mike has my trust and I will absolutely use his company in the future and refer him to anyone looking for this type of service."

"FANTASTIC ! Ryan showed up and looked the job over. He identified areas that needed to be sampled / tested. Very professional, safe and hard working team. My wife has asthma so Ryan told me they would be extra careful about dust, etc. They were GREAT throughout the entire remidiation process. They cleaned up the site at the close of each work day. Communication was clear and professional throughout the entire project from Ryan and his team. Would definitely hire him again should the need arise."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to detect asbestos, radon, and VOCs.

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.

Structural problems with the foundation or roof, water damage, and plumbing or electrical issues are all red flags in a home inspection. These problems can pose serious safety risks and be costly to repair. If a home inspection identifies any serious issues, you’ll want to remedy the problem as quickly as possible to avoid the problem getting any worse.

You can sell a house with lead paint, but there are several requirements. If you are aware that lead paint exists anywhere in the home, you must disclose that to potential buyers. Required home inspections will often uncover lead paint, especially for older houses where lead paint may still be a problem. If you have taken steps to encapsulate lead, you should provide buyers with full documentation of the project so it won’t cause any problems later on.

When a surface that contains lead dust is disturbed, the dust can float about in the air for roughly an hour before settling again. Since you cannot see the dust, it is important always to wear protective gear when working with any materials that may contain lead paint and to keep children, pets, and others away from the area for as long as possible
