Best lead testing and removal specialists near Beckemeyer, IL

"K&E was very responsive to my request through Angi and came the same day (a Saturday) to review the work. He gave a reasonable estimate and completed the work the following Monday. I really appreciated the quick turnaround. However, he did not provide the contractcertifications and company info prior to coming to do the work as he said. He was not responsive to my emails and text messages about the contract and work start due to bad weather. Clean up was pretty good, but I did find chipped paint debris when I expected to all of that vacuumed away. That's why I gave a 4 point rating rather than a 5. I will not need to hire again because the lead and asbestos have been abated and there is no need for further work."

"I was refereed to this company through my home owners insurance.  I paid him on the 7th with a 2500.00 check as a deposit.  on the 13th after he had repeatedly been over he kept on "forgetting" to bring the contract. I drew one up on my legal pad and had him sign it so I do have an agreement.  In the contract was removal and haul away of debris and old shower stall, mold treatment, application of Dry Lock on walls, Instillation of new larger sump pump and tank, and instillation of new drain around the edge of the basement all to be completed on or before July 15, 2011.

The mold treatment and application of dry lock went well.  Now every time the new sump pump kicks on water shoots out of the bathroom sink upstairs.  When the workers started to install the new drain in the basement floor they could not saw through the concrete.  They even tried to use a jack hammer in one corner.  Now there is worse leakage where they were able to score the floor and the corner where they jack hammered has a constant puddle. 

He informed us that they could not install the drain in the basement and could not fix the issue with the sump pump.  The job was "completed" on the 19th. I asked for Mr. Fowler to pay to have a plumber install a working drain and fix the sump pump.  He told me he could not but he could refund me $300.00 of what I had already paid. 

The only reason that we were going to have the drain installed was because he told us the mold would just keep on comping back, and that he would be able to do the total job.  The job is not completed, there is debris in the front yard, and the cleanup in the basement was incomplete.

I feel that because we are elderly we have been taken advantage of and we do not want others to go through the same experience.  I feel frustrated with myself for not thoroughly researching this company before the work was started.

He did just recently come by my home and refunded $1000 of the $2500 that I paid him initially.  I appreciate the attempt on his part to make a settlement for the work."
