"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. They arranged all the testing and removal after the insurance panned out the money. Great service and aazing response time!"

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

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

At-home lead tests can provide accurate results if used correctly, and if the kits are reputable and certified. They vary in sensitivity and methodology, influencing their accuracy. Follow instructions meticulously, ensuring proper sample collection and test execution. While they can detect elevated lead levels, for precise confirmation or if results are concerning, consider professional testing or lab analysis for comprehensive accuracy and guidance on addressing any issues.

You do not have to remove lead paint if the surface is not chipping or peeling or if there are no pregnant people or children under the age of six who live in or regularly visit your home. Lead paint is a particular risk for young children whose brains and bodies are not fully developed. Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it’s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home. You can experience lead poisoning by breathing in or ingesting just a small amount of it.

With regular testing, treatment, and maintenance, water from a community well should be safe to drink. Unfortunately, the EPA does not regulate private wells, and contamination can happen. 

If you have doubts about the quality and safety of your drinking water, you have options for testing. You can pick up kits from your local home supply store or harvest samples and send them to a local testing facility. To get the most complete water quality testing and system diagnosis, seek a local well professional. They know what to test for and can recommend and implement a longer-lasting solution.

The average cost of a lead paint inspection is about $600, but it can cost as low as $150 or as much as $800, depending on the size of the area, geographic location, and the inspection methods. Some of the most common lead paint inspection methods include:

  • Visual inspection: $150–$400

  • Paint sampling: $200–$600

  • X-ray fluorescence (XRF): $250–$700

  • Risk assessment: $300–$800
