"Brad was very personable and thorough with his explanation of how the system worked. I appreciated that he took the time to explain how exactly the system worked for our home. I felt he really listened to what our specific needs were and that it was for the long-term. We had been given a quote of $5,900.00 to clean our A/C and ductwork, and we weren't told it was just a short term solution. We actually wound up saving money, and for that, I am especially thankful. Customer service is very important to us and we look forward to working with your company for many years to come. Will we recommend your service? Absolutely! Many thanks from Marge and Roger Lessard."

"Jimmie was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. Of the estimates and recommendations I received for mold remediation in my crawlspace, I thought Jimmie's approach seemed the most logical and thorough. Pricing was fair, and the service was prompt with regular communication from him and his team about progress and next steps. He even performed an extra preventative measure that wasn't included in the estimate. I highly recommend this company."

"John was very professional in his initial presentation regarding the roof coupon we bought on Angie's List.   We subsequently decided to go ahead and use his company for the other services listed above.  Since this review entailed more than the initial Angie's List Coupon, the contractor indicated that he would email me how to break out the Angie's List review into separate jobs, but did not and so it is all combined.
Roof 1.The crew was unfriendly and very sloppy- we had nails and single material left on our driveway and gutters- we paid for a home inspector to inspect the work - the resulting report indicated that the industry standard requires a  space between the garage roof and the house siding and that this was not done properly - when we brought it to the attention of the contractor he readily agreed to fix the situation.  The correction required flashing and a gap increase which was done by shortening the siding and roof shingles in that area.  That work was uneven and required 2 additional trips, one to correct the uneven line and one to paint the exposed edges.
2. Siding replacement -  we had the contractor and his crew back to our house or on the phone at least 4 or more times to  give additional estimates for rotten siding.-we incorrectly assumed that all the major areas of damage would have been noted by the contractor and included on the original bid for the job.  Some areas required up to 10-15 new boards.   These additional areas cost several hundred additional dollars.
3.  House painting, deck pressure washing and stain, siding repair, and wood repair - I gave the wood repair of my front porch and my windows an A 
House preparation for painting - the pressure washing was done without any regard for covering my foundation landscaping and there was damage done by the clorox as evaluated by Davey Tree -  the painters also broke several limbs off an existing 2 store pine tree,  2azaleas, and a mature butterfly bush.  The owner would have agreed for the tree to be cut back off the garage wall but the other damage was just sloppy work.
The house overall looks very nice - A  
 The problems with the painters were over the top with them arguing with us at several points in the project. They painted the actual window panes from a lack of taping and/or skill and they painted into several of the window tracks that caused difficulty getting the windows up and down. The painters also sprayed fresh paint 4-5 feet onto both sides of the garage roofing.  We had to bring all these problems to the contractor's attention rather then him monitoring his crew.  The problems were satisfactorily corrected, but the exterior projects took weeks and weeks to complete.
4.  The deck was not pressured washed before the new stain was applied and the owner brought this to the attention of the contractor as well as the lead painter, before the first stroke of stain was applied.  The contractor agreed it was not done.  They did not want to remove the stain and offered to replace the deck floor, which they did, but it was not in bad shape to begin with.  The owner withheld $500 from the final payment for the completion of the deck power washing and restraining.  
5.  Rehanging the cabinets and doors - A  
Recently discovered problem - the painters used our gas and offered to refill the gas tank which we thought they had done.  This spring when this owner filled the riding mower with that gas, it completely stopped running within a few minutes.  The service call of $149  indicated that the mower had a gas tank full of water.  There would have been no way the water was the fault of the owner as the mower had been stored inside the garage after mowing season, which was before the painters completed their work. I notified the contractor of this situation in addition to the damaged landscaping.  Four weeks ago I gave him two weeks to respond and as of this writing he has not.
The contractor is a very nice person and easy to deal with, but does not oversee his subs. We had the contractor's word, before signing the contract, that he was hands on and would be on site often to monitor his crews.  The only time he came on site was if we called.

FAQs for lead testing and removal projects in Efland, NC

Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.

Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:

  • Location

  • Materials and equipment needed

  • Disposal method

  • Accessibility

  • Surface types

  • Repairs needed

  • Labor

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

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

A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.

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?
