"Asbestos testing is EXPENSIVE, and the removal cost is OUTRAGEOUS. Michael Herman of Weber Group Management was extremely thorough in explaining the situation to me. He called me immediately, tested the next day, and provided the results within 24 hours. The asbestos was only contained in a small 6 x 10 foot area in the kitchen. Luckily, I had a friend that is also certified in removing asbestos, so my friend removed the 200 sf for free. If not for my friend, I would have definitely hired Michael Herman of Weber to remove. His knowledge, professionalism and credentials are very impressive., and his demeanor is even more impressive."

"My husband and I hired Chicago Asbestos & Mold Removal Professionals for asbestos that was found in our attic. Rogelio was my main point of contact and he was on top of things from start to finish. He described the entire process and seemed reasonably priced in comparison to other places. They were even able to complete the 2 day project in 1 day! I HIGHLY recommend hiring them for your project needs in relation to asbestos and mold. 😁"

"Four Elements Environmental was extremely prompt replying to my messages and was able to work with my schedule to setup a lead paint and dust inspection. Mark conducted an extremely thorough inspection, and found lead in a few places I never would have noticed on my own. Four Elements pricing was reasonable, and the report assembled after the inspection was extremely detailed and helpful. I highly recommend Four Elements Environmental!"

"I purchased the deal on Angies List for $349, which was to include materials - including tile up to $2/sq foot for 40 feet. I was told by Tom in advance that it would be $200 to remove and then reinstall the vanity and the toilet. This seemed excessive to me, but not wanting to deal with the hassle of it, and since the BigDeal was such a good deal, we agreed to that. The Big Deal said that it included replacement ceramic tile up to $2/sq. foot (or $80 total.) I inquired about how we were supposed to pick the tile, and Tom said to purchase it ourselves and we'd get an $80 credit from him. When Tom arrived at the house he said that he had neglected to mention that the $80 for tile was actually an allowance for all of the materials, and the cost of the mortar and grout (and any other materials) already totaled more than $80 so no credit for us on the tile. I paid special attention to the cost of the tile when I was purchasing it to make sure we stayed within the $2/sq. foot because that what was included. I found that to be a bit annoying, especially since he and I had emailed about it before I purchased the deal...but I figured it really wasn't a big deal. I asked him if he would install a small backsplash around the vanity after reinstalling the vanity. (I had some extra mosaic tiles from tiling the shower, and they were already cut into strips.) He agreed, but didn't mention anything about an extra charge. When he was finished, he asked for $60 extra for the backsplash.
He completed the work quickly; and it looks good. He showed up on time, and worked hard. Overall, he did a nice job. I even asked him for a quote to replace our kitchen back splash, but we decided to do it ourselves.
The deal was a good deal - and I'm pleased with the overall project. But Tom didn't communicate well about extra fees, and what was included and what isn't. He made a comment that the extra fees were to make sure that he makes something on the job. I certainly don't want to take advantage of anyone. I think that this is the result of a poorly structured deal on Angie's List for the purpose of drumming up some new business. I would be very careful when discussing pricing with Tom.

"We have worked with Van Der Bosch for three or four years now, and they have been beyond fantastic.
We lived in a garden (basement) unit condo that had some severe plumbing issues. Now, all garden units have water issues - that's just the nature of the beast of living underground. But our unit had some particularly bad problems: The common piping for the toilets was old and not installed to handle a below-grade unit, so several times during huge rainstorms, sewage from the other people in our condo backed up through our tub. We had VDB come out multiple times for this issue.
The reason why it took and quot;multiple timesand quot; had nothing to do with shoddy craftsmanship on the part of VDB. Since the problem was in the common pipes, it was an issue for the condo association. The association understandably chose to do some lower cost fixes the first couple times around, but eventually opted for the full pipe replacement when they realized that this was going to continue being an issue.
Throughout the process, VDB advocated for us to the condo board, and I think it was their advocacy that eventually led to the association eventually chosing the big-ticket long-term fix. Now that might make you think they push the more expensive stuff for their own benefit. But that's not the case at all - more than once, they urged us NOT to have some expensive work done that they didn't think would actually lead to a long-term benefit for us. (Not to mention they made several visits for free when dealing with minor things.) This honesty was one of the biggest things that we appreciated about them, and we really felt that we could trust them 100%.
That eventual big fix was that they had to rip up our floor to get to and replace a big pipe. This was a multi-day job that left us unable to use that particular room in our house. Not only did they get this done in what seemed to us like a pretty short amount of time, but they left the floor looking like nothing had ever happened to it. After they did this, we never had the sewage problem ever again.
Also, the plumbers that came to our unit were the nicest guys in the world. I don't know if it's company policy that the service workers be so polite, but I think every time someone came over, they called us and quot;ma'amand quot; and and quot;sir.and quot;
Anyways, these guys are great. I give them my absolutely highest recommendation, and am really sad that we can't take them with us to West Virginia when we move.
NOTE ON THE COST OF SERVICE: I don't remember any of the costs involved, since this happened over a period of three years. Angie's List converted my and quot;??and quot; into a 0.00.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Lead exposure poses significant health risks, including neurological, developmental, and behavioral disorders, especially critical in young children and fetuses.

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

If lead is detected in a property, steps should include arranging for professional removal or containment, notifying all occupants, and implementing interim safety measures to reduce exposure.
