"Richard came to my house, looked over the walls and attic, fully explained what he was doing and why, and took a sample. Two days later Nancy called, took payment information, and quickly emailed my negative result. These people are wonderful to work with, and are highly recommended."

"Thanks to a bad pipe in an upstairs bathroom , our house sustained 18 hours worth of water damage on three floors. If you've never had such a problem in your house, consider yourself blessed. I called Loyear the morning of the damage and a team was dispensed out that day. The main concern was to ensure that during the summer the heavy water damage didn't result in mold.
Loyear sent Eric Kolbinger, the consummate professional that a home owner wants to work with in this type of situation. After assessing the damage Eric gave a clear, concise explanation of what would happen including how the process would work with my insurance company. What Eric said, his workers did and within four days the work was done.
Eric then helped me find a contractor, Steve Kolbinger of Kolbinger Construction Services in Becker. It's extremely rare to have realization meet expectation. Steve and his team's work on the restoration was miraculous. The house looks equal to or better than before the disaster. Steve also helped reduce the construction dust and dirt by screening off the rest of the house to safeguard sensitive electronic equipment.
Your house would be in good hands when using these services."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. 

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.

Professional lead removal involves identifying and safely removing or encapsulating lead-based paints and materials, using specialized equipment, and following strict safety procedures to minimize exposure and contamination.

Determining if your water main contains lead involves a few steps. First, check the age of your property, as homes built before the 1980s might have lead pipes. Contact your water utility company for information on your service line material. Then, you can hire a professional plumber to conduct an inspection or use a lead testing kit to analyze water from the main line.
