"Company had done work for us twice before (tile roofing and flat top rubber roofing). They did a great job and we never had a problem with anything they did. This job was done when we told it would be, all cleaned up after and during the work, and has held up well. (Done 3 years ago.)"

"I have been very lucky to meet Tera! She is highly professional, very honest, very friendly and just helped me so much through the entire process! While I was going through frustration of reaching other professionals, she explained to me how the process works with mold assessment, remediation etc. It's not easy to figure out where to start and what to do when you are dealing with it for the first time in your life. Tera performed outstanding job on her own and also referred other professionals to the table to make sure it will help me to get the best possible outcome and get the problem to resolve in the right way. I can't recommend Tera and her company enough! Recommended 100%!"

"Had massive mold damages to my property after a flash flood hit us bad in Kissimmee 4 months ago. Immediately contracted Adjuster Groups to have them help out with filing a claim.

Having a professional home inspection performed before you buy is not simply a smart idea, in many cases it is the law. A home may appear to be in great condition but it could have many hidden issues. Have a professional take care of that and get a detailed report of any issues with the home as well as, a comprehensive profile of all aspects of the properly.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Professional lead testing services typically cost between $200 and $500, with the price varying based on the extent of testing and the specific areas tested within the property.

“Testing” can start with your senses: Assessing your water’s appearance, taste, and smell can all be good first steps. The best way to know for sure what’s going on with your water is to use a well water testing kit, which can tell you about the specific levels of bacteria, dissolved solids, and hardness of your water with precision. Have a pro test your well water at least once per year.

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. 

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

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.
