"We are a repeat customer of Adam Contracting and will continue to use the company. They have done an excellent job on everything we've hired them to do; this project was no exception. The room looks great! For this project, Adam Contracting redid wainscotting in the room and added a shelf, did wall repair, installed crown molding, painted the walls and trim, and installed a light fixture."

"I called 3 companies for estimates for the job.  Puroclean was the only one to give me a written estimate.  I wanted to get the work done asap so Mickey worked late to get me the written estimate on the same day he was here to assess the work.  It was so helpful in a stressful situation such as extensive water damage to have everything spelled out.  Mickey was very responsive to my emails and questions.  He and a technician arrived when expected, did the work quietly and efficiently, and there were no surprises.  He did not take advantage of my stress to push any extras and was never patronizing (single women know of what I write!)  Even though the work was in the crawlspace, I noticed a wonderful fresh smell in the house the next morning..  I only wish I had called Puroclean at the beginning of my ordeal with the water damage.  I am so impressed with this company that I have recommended them to my sister.  I think they are working hard to establish a good reputation and they are doing all the right things in my opinion.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

If your house was built before 1978 and you’re noticing cracking or peeling paint, a lead paint inspection is a good idea. A lead paint inspection gives you accurate information about the presence, location, and condition of lead-based paint in your home. This information is essential for making informed decisions about lead paint removal to ensure your safety and health and that of your family. If your inspector finds lead, you’ll need to take steps to manage or remove the lead-based paint and comply with laws and regulations.

At-home lead tests can provide accurate results if used correctly, and if the kits are reputable and certified. They vary in sensitivity and methodology, influencing their accuracy. Follow instructions meticulously, ensuring proper sample collection and test execution. While they can detect elevated lead levels, for precise confirmation or if results are concerning, consider professional testing or lab analysis for comprehensive accuracy and guidance on addressing any issues.

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

Hazardous waste is waste that poses a threat to human or environmental health. This generally refers to waste that is flammable, corrosive, toxic, or reactive. To confirm if the waste you need to remove is considered hazardous waste, contact your local hazardous waste facility.

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