"I called Asbestos Abatement Associates in a slight panic on a Friday because we were having carpet installed into our basement and the work was halted because there was what was believed asbestos in the tiles under the tack strips and the workers would not move forward until it was tested and cleaned up. Richard called back immediately and set an appointment for the following Monday morning. Within 24 hours we had the results and were able to schedule the cleanup for the following day. The office worker Nancy was extremely helpful in clarifying what we would need to provide our carpet installers as well as what the cost and scope of work for the cleanup would be. The cleanup crew were punctual, courteous and very professional. While I hope I never have to...I would hire them again in a heartbeat! Wonderful service top to bottom."

"Working with Greene was a great experience. They were prompt and thorough, and easy to communicate with. Damian is quick to respond to questions, and the guys on the crew kept me in the loop on things (and provided suggestions on other work, unrelated to what they were doing). They stuck to their budget, were flexible on scheduling as some other aspects of the project got shuffled around, and made the whole thing easy.

We ran in to several snags during the work - the ground had settled under the floor leaving a gap of a few inches, a several hundred pound rock was found in the corner where we wanted to place the sump basket, and more concrete had to be removed than expected."

"The mold removal and restoration of my front hall closet was started and completed with no problems. I got everything in writing and the workmen did everything in a timely manner. Everything was cleaned up and you wouldn't even know they were there. I got a great value for the money and I thank them for not trying to take advantage of me. The employees were very professional, friendly, and helpful. THe closet looks beautiful now and be energy efficient now that the mold and moisture problem is gone - I can feel the difference."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?

If lead is detected in a property, steps should include arranging for professional removal or containment, notifying all occupants, and implementing interim safety measures to reduce exposure.

According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.

Government regulations such as the EPA and OSHA govern lead removal procedures to ensure health and environmental safety during and after abatement.

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.
