We are a locally owned business since 2004. We are not franchised. We are fully insured for both mold inspections and remediation. We do crawlspace waterproofing. We can do encapsulation in crawlspaces. We are honest with our customers and believe in fixing problems not causing them. When you call our number you will actually speak with the owner Mike Smith. He is certified with the IICRC in both mold and water damage. Mike is very honest with his customers. If he tells you something needs to be done then it needs to be done. He won't sell a job just for the business. Our reputation is very important to us.

"Mike and his team are so professional. They did the job quickly, correctly, and for a very fair price."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Structural problems with the foundation or roof, water damage, and plumbing or electrical issues are all red flags in a home inspection. These problems can pose serious safety risks and be costly to repair. If a home inspection identifies any serious issues, you’ll want to remedy the problem as quickly as possible to avoid the problem getting any worse.

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

The four types of hazardous waste are toxic, corrosive, flammable, and reactive. These four types fall under the EPA’s designation of characteristic hazardous waste. The EPA also categorizes hazardous wastes as listed, which includes specific byproducts or unused chemicals from manufacturing and industrial processes, universal waste, including bulbs, mercury, pesticides, batteries, and various other common substances, and mixed waste containing radioactive material.

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. 

Most tests provide results within 2-7 days, but expedited services may be available for urgent situations.
