"We were selling our house and the radon test came back high so we needed quick and effective service. The appointment was scheduled a week from our call. The technician arrived on time and helped identify the best location for the system that was both effective and as aesthetic as possible. The install went quickly and he took the time to explain how it worked and what we should look for in terms of monitoring and maintenance. Overall, it was a good experience."

"Started out great, ended up BAD-- our favorite was when-a few months in and behind schedule-- Robert disappeared for a few days, and on return, told us that he had decided to drive to Florida, and made it to NJ before realizing it was a bad idea. Wait, no, it might have been when Robert tried to renegotiate contracted prices (NOT for extra/revised work) and asserted some crazy math that tacked on more than $15,000 due to that screwy math (and not the changing prices, etc.).
On the plus side, we loved one of the subs he hired (Ed, the MA licensed Construction Supervisor from E & H Construction in JP), and we began working with Ed after Robert finished his contract (late, with shoddier work as time went on). Robert's contract included a warranty, but Robert never returned my calls when I started to see cracks in some of his cement-work (which he poured on one of the 10-degree days in January 2013, despite my concerns).

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:
Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot
Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project
Encapsulation: $4 per square foot
Enclosure: $10 per square foot
Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot
Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.
Common home surfaces to test for lead include:
Walls
Windows
Doors
Molding and trim
Railings
A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.
