They have been working with us for the last three years and they are still doing more work. They put the bay window in last fall. They are not cheap. Their quality is very good. They are here earlier than I anticipate. The job they did on the storm doors was really good, but they are starting to rust a little bit and it is only a year. He looked at them and he is going to see what he can do with them.

"When my brand new refrigerator leaked and caused about fifteen thousand in damage to my kitchen, I called several reviewed companies. I got four estimates to remove the damaged cabinets and dry wall, and to dry out what was able to be saved. I chose Bella T because no matter how many questions I asked or what horrible 'what if' scenarios' I worried about, the staff at Bella T were confident, patient, and reassuring. They took my calls at night and on Sunday. They told me it would be okay, they would handle everything, and they were true to their word. Bella T worked directly with my insurance company. This was a huge relief to me as my husband was out of the country and I know nothing about construction. Their staff were so nice, one even baked me a cheese cake and gave it to me when the job ended! The first company that came out to assess the damage terrified me and told me all sorts of awful things with enormous costs. All of which turned out to be wrong. Thank goodness I continued to get estimates and found Bella T."

Lead Testing and Removal FAQs, answered by experts

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.

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

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.

Iron sediments from rusty pipes are not likely to cause health problems. While a glass of yellow-hued water is off-putting, it is generally safe to drink yellow water in the short term. But you certainly want to address this problem. In the meantime, switching to bottled water until the yellow water issue is resolved is a good idea. 

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.
