"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."

"William and his crew were punctual, courteous, and professional. William walked me through the process for the work, inspected the areas he needed to access, and answered all my questions with enthusiasm which made me feel respected as a customer. They worked diligently and when the whole job was complete, including air quality testing, he walked me through for approval. I truly think my basement was left cleaner than before they started. I had nothing to clean up, throw out, or pick up after they were done. I am so pleased I used BlueStone for my Asbestos removal project and their pricing was right in line with a competitor. Thank you!"

"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. 😁"

"They were very professional honest and showed up on time. Another company to come out and they were trying to pitch me and the idea of me destroy my entire basement to get rid of some mold. The guys at Black rock environmental did not! They even took an air test afterwards confirming everything they said they would do. I strongly recommend them. Two thumbs up!"

"Tom installed a beautiful ceramic floor in my kitchen.  He guided me and made recommendations.  His estimate of the number of tiles was exactly 4 boxes with a half a tile leftover.  His 18 years of experience is apparent in his meticulous work ethic.  After seeing all the measuring (twice) and cutting I witness, I'm so glad I did not attempt to install the tiles myself.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, lead dust does not look different from any other type of dust. You cannot detect it with the naked eye. To determine if you have lead dust in your home, you will need to hire a local company to take a sample from the paint and test it for you in a lab.

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.

Costs depend on the number of samples, testing method, lab fees, and whether on-site inspections are required.

Several different measurements may be used to determine the amount of lead in water. The most common unit of measurement is micrograms per liter (µg/L), which is the same as parts per billion. Another measurement is milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is the same as parts per million.

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.
