"Plain and simple, go with Rick and 1st Rate Construction. As a homeowner, I HAVE struggled to find companies where the person that quotes the work, is the person that does the work. Rick is the owner-operator of his company and will be your point of contact/work the job. He removed lead paint windows and soffit/fascia for me, and some asbestos ductwork. All great work. Thanks Rick !"

"Removing old wallpaper revealed mold on the dinning room and adjoining kitchen wall. Contacted Abatement Contractors (ACU) and left a message to contact me. Within 20 minutes got a call from Terri Cowart, owner of ACU, and scheduled an appointment for the very next day. Terri inspected the wall and there was no question the mold had to be removed. A previous test by another entity determined the mold was of a particularly toxic variety, but not active. I also had an air quality test done by a third party and it showed the air inside the home was okay. The inactivity of the mold and it being covered by wallpaper would likely explain why there was no moldy smell that would have put me on notice of a problem. In addition, I had begun to remove old kitchen tiles and dinning room flooring and Terri suggested an asbestos test on the flooring. Because the house was built in 1959, it was likely that asbestos was present. Terri took a tile sample and had it tested and confirmed the presence of asbestos. The test was $50.00 and paid at time of her inspection. Terri prepared a proposal to remediate the mold and remove the asbestos. After responding to my questions and providing clarification on a few points, I signed the proposal and the work was scheduled for the following week. The crew of four arrived on time and promptly set to work covering the work area in plastic and air cleaning equipment and began removing the moldy sheetrock and floor tiles. Tia, the crew chief, saw to it that all the work was done in accordance with the proposal and answered all my questions and concerns. It took a good 8 hours to set up, commence the remediation, and remove and secure the sheetrock and flooring. The inside wall and studs were then painted with a mold resistant coating. However, the kitchen tiles could not be removed without taking out the subflooring and expose the floor joists and crawlspace below the kitchen. I had not prepared for this, but Terri allowed me time to find someone to put in a subfloor after removal of the old flooring. So the following week, Tia and two crew members again set up and began removing the kitchen floor which took about three hours."

"I called Nathaniel after another contractor found suspected asbestos tape in our crawl space. Nathaniel was able to arrange a same-day appointment for me at a price that was the best of all the many companies I called. He arrived on time and was professional, courteous, and competent. I plan to continue with them for the abatement of any issues his testing uncovers and would highly recommend his team!"

Roofing, Siding, Windows, and Gutters is our specialty. Let's face it. Home improvement is an industry with a bad reputation. Shoddy workmanship, broken promises, and disappointing results are all too common. Don't take a Chance...go with Schantz! The Details..... Our specialty is Replacement Roofing, Replacement siding, Replacement windows, and Replacement Gutters and covers. My family has been in the building business since 1946 and we are a third generation contractor. We do the job RIGHT with quality installers and quality products at a FAIR price. We HATE high-pressure sales tactics. We LOVE explaining how our products are great and how they can improve your life and save you money. That's why we always give you a detailed bid and then step back, let you consider your options, and choose what you want to do. Other companies pride themselves on "One-call closes." If you want to buy on our first visit-wonderful! But if not, that's okay too! Fair warning: We may put in a higher bid than our competitors, but this does not mean we are the highest cost. In fact, one tactic in high-pressure sales is to low-ball you with an attractive price that they wont stick to and leaves out important specifications. Ever wonder why bids never match final bills? We price the job for what it is and we never low-ball you to trick you into a sale. We offer the following financing options: Low interest and No interest loans.

CertaPro Painters of Atlanta is the longest standing CertaPro Painters office in the Atlanta area. The current owners, Jennifer and Jeremy Rhett of Decatur, started the business in 2001. In 2006 a 2nd territory, in operation since 1996, was purchased. We are proud to have completed over 3000 painting projects across Metro Atlanta, ranging in size from interior projects to extensive large-scale jobs involving aerial platform lifts and swingstage scaffolding. Our team of color consultants, painters, carpenters, and professionally trained office staff coordinate your project in a seamless manner to ensure all aspects meet expectations. For residential customers we offer 12 months same as cash financing options. If you are considering a new look that involves color changes, ask about our complimentary color consultations!

"I try to not write bad reviews for companies no matter how bad my experience, but this time I feel a need to do so for this company. I chose this company in May 2025 to do a paint job worth several thousands of dollars over $10K based on the great reviews and some homes that I saw with their signs as having painted in our neighborhood. My experience with them has been one poor quality job after another. I don't even know where to start from. Apparently they subcontract your paint job to another contractor, so the quality of work you get depends on the quality of the contractor you receive. The contractor did a terrible job that a regular handy man wouldn't even do. See pictures attached. They came back and supposedly fixed the issues that the initial contractor did poorly. Now the deck they were supposed to have stained not painted is all peeling off. It?s not even 6 months and this is happening. They give you a guarantee of 2 years on the paint job, but the warranty is not honored."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?

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.

DIY lead removal is not recommended due to the health risks and regulatory requirements involved. Professional services ensure compliance with safety standards and effective removal.

Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.

Common home surfaces to test for lead include:

  • Walls

  • Windows

  • Doors

  • Molding and trim

  • Railings

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.
