"I contacted Anthony from the Craigslist ad for Mass Removal.  He returned my call promptly and came out to see the garage the following day.  After negotiating and agreeing on a very reasonable price within my budget, his crew came the next day to clean out the garage.  I followed up that evening and the garage had been cleaned out floor to the rafters and broom swept.  I was pretty amazed at how quickly and thoroughly the job was done.  I would hire them again in a second.  Excellent job!"

"Started out great, ended up BAD-- our favorite was when-a few months in and behind schedule-- Robert disappeared for a few days, and on return, told us that he had decided to drive to Florida, and made it to NJ before realizing it was a bad idea. Wait, no, it might have been when Robert tried to renegotiate contracted prices (NOT for extra/revised work) and asserted some crazy math that tacked on more than $15,000 due to that screwy math (and not the changing prices, etc.).
On the plus side, we loved one of the subs he hired (Ed, the MA licensed Construction Supervisor from E & H Construction in JP), and we began working with Ed after Robert finished his contract (late, with shoddier work as time went on).  Robert's contract included a warranty, but Robert never returned my calls when I started to see cracks in some of his cement-work (which he poured on one of the 10-degree days in January 2013, despite my concerns).

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Lead removal is crucial in older homes to eliminate risks of lead poisoning, which can severely affect health, particularly in children, by impacting development and cognitive functions.

Results from professional lead testing are typically available within a few days to a week (2-7 days), depending on factors like laboratory processing times and the volume of samples being analyzed. Expedited services may also be available for urgent situations.

While not all homes built before 1978 contain lead paint, enough do, so you’ll still want to test to be on the safe side. The federal government banned lead-based paint for homes in 1978, but your state may have banned lead before that time. Around 24% of homes built between 1960 and 1977 contained lead-based paint, while 87% of homes built before 1940 contained lead-based paint.

A lead paint inspection is a thorough examination and assessment of a building or structure to determine the presence of lead-based paint. Lead-based paint was commonly used in buildings before 1978 when its health hazards were fully understood. Lead is toxic and can pose health risks, particularly to young children and pregnant women. Getting a lead paint inspection means finding a lead paint inspector to examine the surfaces of the building—such as walls, ceilings, doors, windows, and other painted areas—and identify the presence of lead-based paint.
