"Horrible experience. I called Enrique to work on the remediation of mold due to a leak on Sept 20, 2023. He gave me a 10,000 price with insurance and said to me to email him my policy. He came back and said that I had a great coverage and that I need not to worry as their team deals directly with the insurance. I believe him because this Company had great reviews. My insurance is not paying because they overcharged excessively. Enrique ignores my calls and txts. They said is a hassle free service but is not true. If your insurance does not pay they will put a lien on your house. Run away!!! I recommend that you work with a Company that your insurance recommend or pay out of pocket and claim back to insurance. They will use all your coverage limit because their pricing is insane. They don't disclose the pricing by the way until the very end when is too late. As the mold spread to my son's room they added 20,000 to the price. I got this email today but is not the first one. They are threatening me to put a lien on my property. I had been through h*** with them. Dont make the same mistake Lina, Good afternoon. We submitted all final Invoices, pictures and documents for your claim on 09/27/2023. It has been over the 60 days that the Insurance company has to make a decision. When I spoke to your adjuster yesterday on the phone, he said the claim was still in review. He claimed that we should have charged closer to $10,000 total on each of your Mold Invoices. His reasoning for that was that we should have charged less because the homeowner, you, were going through a hard time. Unfortunately, that is not an acceptable reason nor is it compliant with any reasoning behind why a Mold Remediation Invoice should be for less money or not paid out for work we completed. So, I stated we have pictures and documents to back up all of our line item charges on our Invoices and he can speak to Pamela Brown our claims manager, to go over any line-item charges on your Invoices. Pamela has contacted and is still waiting to hear back from your adjuster. We are approaching 70 days since completion of your job. By around 80 days we need to file a lien against your property for the amount owed to us. If payment is not received by us by next Friday, we will be placing a lien on the property for the balance owed, as stated in your signed contracts and Florida law. Once we receive payment from you, we will satisfy the lien. Hopefully your adjuster will get in touch with Pamela soon and your Insurance company will make their payment determination. However, this does serve as notice that by next Friday, around 80 days from completion of job, we will be placing a lien on the property which will be satisfied immediately after payment is made. Thank You, Elizabeth Resnick Accounting Manager Rapid Restoration Recovery Inc"

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. 

Some causes of brown well water—like excess tannins or dissolved iron—don’t pose a health risk. In other cases, harmful bacteria might be the culprit. If your well water has suddenly turned brown, it’s a good idea to use a home water test kit to get a better sense of what’s going on with your water. Consider calling a professional for an expert opinion before drinking the water and hoping for the best.

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.

Several different measurements may be used to determine the amount of lead in water. The most common unit of measurement is micrograms per liter (µg/L), which is the same as parts per billion. Another measurement is milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is the same as parts per million.

No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.
