"I hired Murphy's Lawn and Landscape to replace my backyard patio and repair an adjoining rock wall. The craftsmen who worked the job were attentive to our requests (protect our lawn, respect our neighbors property etc..). The patio and rock wall were done with excellent quality. The communication with Pat was excellent. The job was done on time and as expected."

"David and his team were very thorough with listening to and understanding my needs. We set up a time line and they were very good at having all the list items done on time and above expectations! Very professional! We also have him do snow removal as it works best for me to have a “go to” company that can do it all. His communication skills are exceptional during the long snow falls as in the early months of spring I have to “ok” any work that is done. I would recommend Weyer’s Services to anyone looking for a quality professional!"

"The guys arrived the same day I requested the work, they (two guys) went right to work, after providing an initial verbal estimate. After working about 15 minutes the lead guy noted that there were more leaves in the back yard than they originally estimated, and he asked if I would agree to a slight increase in the estimated cost. Since I had found the original estimate very reasonable I was OK with the update from $150 to $200, in part because I had witnessed what a thorough job they were doing. The complete job took about 1 hour, start to finish. My wife and I were very pleased with the overall job, and will certainly consider using them again next Fall."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Some companies offer hazardous waste removal, but additional fees and special handling procedures may be required.

The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.

Household products such as paints, cleaners, oils, and batteries are considered hazardous and should not be disposed of with regular household waste. Instead, look for local household hazardous waste collection facilities where you can safely dispose of these items without harming the environment or human health.
