Everyone at CW takes pride in their customer service, cleanliness, and the highest quality, most cost effective improvements available. All employees have the latest certifications. Including BPI, Lead Certified Renovator, First Aid, and others.

"Let's say if you don't go with this company, you'll be severally disappointed. The Carolina Weatherization team, (Matt, Eric, Chris and Brian) are phenomenal! I considered putting in insulation in October to support my energy costs and went through several quotes with other companies prior to selecting this team. I am incredibly happy that I reviewed this quote and chose this team. They let me know they were on the way prior to arrival, took impeccable care of my home by laying down cloth, wearing booties, and doing a bang up cleaning job prior to leaving. They were helpful in repairing a shelving unit and installing a brand new attic door to support all of their work. These gentlemen take pride in their work and it shows with how diligent they are in ensuring that the right steps are taking before, during, and after."

"Go with Showcase!! Im and service member at Fort Bragg, NC and my house I recently purchased was burned down on Thanksgiving of 2021 due to an electrical issue within the walls. My husband and I didn't know where to begin with the devastation that just occurred to our family.. the very next day we returned to our destroyed house with several restoration companys brochures taped to our front door, but Lynn at Showcase was there to greet us. He gave us the full run down of what Showcase can accomplish for us to put us back in our home in about a 6 month time frame. I honestly didn't believe him, neither did my insurance adjuster. I even asked around about which restoration company would provide me with a the best quality restoration for the fire damage. Everyone said "Go with Showcase, all the other restoration companys you wouldn't want to go near with a 10 ft pole" .. I then hired Showcase through Lynn, had my salvageable personal belongings taken to be cleaned up by David, walked through my insurance policy limits with Matt, and was assigned my project manager Jeremiah. THEY ARE KILLING IT at the job!! My project manager Jeremiah recently went through the reconstruction progress timeline with me step-by-step, date-by-date, and has a estimated "move back in" date of mid April, but we are actually 3 weeks ahead of schedule. No matter how devastating the situation you may be going through is, you can rely on Showcase to give you the quality, understanding, and finished product in a scheduled out timely manner"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

How you test for lead in your water depends on the source of your home's water supply. If you have municipal water, your local water system may offer to test the water for free or may connect you to a lab that will perform the testing.

If you have a private well that provides drinking water, you are responsible for testing it for lead. Look for a lab that is accredited by your state's Department of Environmental Protection to perform the test.

Several different measurements may be used to determine the amount of lead in water. The most common unit of measurement is micrograms per liter (µg/L), which is the same as parts per billion. Another measurement is milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is the same as parts per million.

The average cost of a lead paint inspection is about $600, but it can cost as low as $150 or as much as $800, depending on the size of the area, geographic location, and the inspection methods. Some of the most common lead paint inspection methods include:

  • Visual inspection: $150–$400

  • Paint sampling: $200–$600

  • X-ray fluorescence (XRF): $250–$700

  • Risk assessment: $300–$800

The EPA broadly defines hazardous waste as any waste that could pose a danger to humans or the environment. More specifically, it includes any material that could combust or explode under normal temperatures and pressure, as well as materials that are toxic or corrosive. Some common household hazardous waste products include aerosol cans, paint cans, old tires, medical supplies, unused medications, fire extinguishers, cleaning solutions, and lawn care products.

“Testing” can start with your senses: Assessing your water’s appearance, taste, and smell can all be good first steps. The best way to know for sure what’s going on with your water is to use a well water testing kit, which can tell you about the specific levels of bacteria, dissolved solids, and hardness of your water with precision. Have a pro test your well water at least once per year.
