"Koogle Removal was very smooth and efficient. I’ve had other removal companies in the past and they would leave a mess, when Koogle left everything was spotless. Very respectful and easy to work with, he’s my go to for any removal services. Definitely recommend."
"We recently used NOVA Junk to remove and donate several items from our basement including clothes donations, old appliances, exercise equipment, and furniture. From soup to nuts, the process was seamless. The staff at NOVA Junk was incredibly responsive and friendly. They provided me a base quote based on pictures I provided them. They scheduled a pick-up within two days of the initial call. The pick-up crew were punctual and very thoughtful about removing the items and loading them into their truck for maximum efficiency. The pricing was very competitive. Overall we were extremely pleased with the quality of service and friendly staff. We would not hesitate to use NOVA Junk again."
"Excellent ! Would definitely use again. I liked that he responded to my request immediately. He was the only one that reached out to me right away. The tree was removed the next. His price was reasonable. He talked to me about other trees that needed to be removed but was not pushy. Gave me his card and said to reach out if i need him again. Very pleasant and professional."
"I was vey pleased. The crew showed up and got right to work. They hand-dug out the bulbs I wanted removed, did a fine job pulling and removing all of the weeds that had come up in the flower bed, and made sure to level out the areas where they had removed plants. They finished the project with mulch, and again made sure it looked clean and professional. I asked for a quick trim on my Azaleas next to my deck, and they were happy to accommodate me. They made sure my yard was cleaned of all debris, and used a blower to get any loose materials. It was clearly a team effort, but the crew leader was excellent."
"Five Brothers Junk Removal exceeded expectations. I posted on Angie’s List and had a callback within 90 seconds — they came out same day for an estimate, and their bid matched my budget exactly. We scheduled the work for day three, and their two-man crew arrived and worked diligently for one solid hour, completing the entire project: old play structures, two oversized 100+ lb sandboxes, tarps, Power Wheels, bikes, yard waste, and debris — all cleared, leaving the yard spotless. The estimate matched the final invoice exactly, and they delivered everything promised, on schedule. Efficient, hardworking, and completely reliable. THE BEST! I’ll be recommending them on every neighborhood app I use. As a Chevy Chase/Bethesda homeowner, I refer Five Brothers with complete confidence. Sara"
"Brandon is a very nice person to work with. He gave me a quote based on a photo I sent him. We arranged a time for him to remove my junk. He was punctual, honored our agreed upon price. I will hire Brandon again!!! All was perfect."
"I was looking for a last-minute junk removal company for my move and came across Scrap's Junk Removal. They were very professional, punctual, and had great rates. I would recommend them!"
"Mr. Jay Porter was extremely professional. He removed all the weeds from my flower beds, cut the shrubs, added rocks and planted an array of beautiful plants which enhanced the outdoor area and gave my home great curb appeal. I recommend this company for hire. Their workmanship is impeccable. They leave your place spotkess. They are the best and are affordable as well."
No. Standard homeowners insurance does not cover any kind of lead remediation, focusing instead on sudden, unpreventable events like fires and theft. Many insurance companies will specifically exclude lead paint removal, since it tends to be an expensive and unavoidable project. The exception is if the lead surface is damaged during a covered event (like a flood) and homeowners insurance pays its replacement.
No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.
If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.
Professionals use appropriate equipment to prevent property damage and ensure efficiency.
If the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.
