"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."

"I got estimates from several companies but Bluestone was the only one that actually came to my house to look at it. Ron was my estimator and he did a great job explaining what they would do and answering all the questions I had about the job. Bluestone had the lowest bid with the Angie's list discount (was in the very middle of the three without it) so I went with them. They were able to schedule it for the following week. Will and his crew were here a few minutes before 7 am, and he took plenty of time to go over the work site with me and show me what they were going to do. They were all super professional, did what looked to me like a great job isolating the room and were ready for the air testing guy (who I had hired myself but they communicated with as far as timing when he needed to be there) by early afternoon. It passed the air clearance test and they quickly broke down the worksite. I had been worried about yucky black mastic getting splashed onto things but the room is actually quite clean and is waiting for step two of this process - the waterproofers."

"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. 😁"

"Our condominium was affected by a long standing leakage, which did not become apparent until after what, we surmised, may have taken several months in the making: As the result of a defect in our 30 year old decaying pipe system. After completing the necessary drying-out process of the flood--followed by an adverse mold analysis report and the warehousing of all our personal belongings--, our personal claims-adjuster referred us to Mr. Tawakali of Chicago Mold Service, Restoration and Construction Services, in order to execute the required demolishing, dismantling and remediation. From the first contact, Mr. Tawakali gave us essentially a master class of what was involved in fully addressing the remediation issues as detailed in the mold analysis report: Four out of six interior areas had tested positive for "black mold" at moisture levels of 95%; 84%; 74% and 46% --versus 29% in the exterior--, when only 17% was acceptable for interior habitation. The kitchen sink was ground zero of the leak, which seeped and permeated through-out floors and walls. The result was the development of an extensive amount of active black mold spores in walls, floors as well as in the air. It took two concentrated efforts in cleaning to address the problem, the first of which took five days for dismantling cabinets, walls and floors in a radius of 5600 cubic feet. After a follow-up test, the second effort took an additional 3 days, because black mold spores were still detectable, and further cleaning had to be undertaken to clean and extract the air out of the apartment until it tested zero spores of the black mold: in all interior areas of concern such as rooms as well as closets. Thanks to the diligence and seriousness of Mr. Tawakaliâ s staff at the end-results were impeccably professional. We concur with our well-listed, independent mold-technician, who complimented them for their superb caliber of execution, and so we strongly recommend Chicago Mold Service."

"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!"

"It went very well.  The employees have a fine attention to detail.  I ordered some moulding product online.  And had hoped to install  it myself ( I sometimes consider myself handy) Fortunately, I hired them! It would of been a nightmare for me and a project I would of never finished.  They noticed that the moulding thickness was not the same across all the pieces that I ordered, which would of caused real issues when installing.  They were able to fix the moulding and make my formal dining room which doubles as my client meeting room GORGEOUS! Quickly they moved onto the stair reconstruction.  I love it!!!
They were on-time everyday and cleaned up the mess every evening before they left. They were courteous, professional and knowledgeable of each project and offered alternative solutions to some of the hiccups we had along the way.
I have referred Jason and his team many times and will continue to use his services for my home refinishing needs."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Lead paint test kits are not always accurate. Several factors can play into why a test kit provides an inaccurate result such as user error, sample viability, the age and condition of the paint, or difficulty interpreting the final result. If you are looking for 100% accuracy, hiring a professional lead paint test is the only way to get that piece of mind.

Lead exposure poses serious health risks, particularly for children, and can be present in paint, pipes, and soil.

No, a standard home inspection includes the basics and does not offer lead paint testing. Professional lead paint inspectors need specific licenses to perform these inspections, which not all home inspectors have. If you suspect lead paint in the home you are about to purchase, you will need to pay separately to have that done. If the findings come back positive, you may be able to negotiate with the buyer to cover the cost of the removal.

DIY lead testing kits are available, but they often lack the accuracy and reliability of professional services. Professional testing is recommended for more accurate results, as properly certified testers can provide a thorough analysis, clear recommendations, and the necessary legal documentation if remediation is required.

Professional lead removal involves identifying and safely removing or encapsulating lead-based paints and materials, using specialized equipment, and following strict safety procedures to minimize exposure and contamination.
