"Very quick, clean and professional. Answered my inquiry promptly, arrived when they said they would completed the work quickly, cleaned up the area after removal. Well worth the price paid to have my old shed and deck debris removed. I tore down and needed the pile of scrap removed. Bobby and his crew were great, I would highly recommend!"

"They are turning a very blah looking area next to my home into something very pretty… They should be finished this week. They removed an old bush and installed new flowering bushes with a rock base and they are finishing up hopefully this week with a pretty tree and some ground covering. Very polite group of men!"

"I called on a Thursday-got a very reasonable estimate. The tree was removed the next day. I should have also got the weeds whacked, but I’m happy with the tree being gone, debris removed, land flat. Only issue was pmt, his credit card mechanism didn’t work so I had to venmo cash. Good thing I had it!! Highly recommend them. Would use again."

"The work that they did to my landscaping was amazing. They redid the edging, removed all weeds and old mulch & put down new mulch. They also mowed the front and back lawn. I love the way everything looks and I would highly recommend them."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

You can paint over lead paint, or “encapsulate” it with a special paint that includes an ingredient called an encapsulant. The EPA approves encapsulation as a lead paint removal method as long as the paint remains undisturbed. Standard types of paint without an “encapsulant” from the big box stores or hardware stores do not meet EPA standards for remediation of lead-based paint.

The safest way to remove lead-based paint is by letting a professional take over. For most people, lead paint removal costs an average of $3,400. You should never attempt to dry sand old lead-based paint surfaces by hand. Most professionals use a paint stripper to do the job followed by wet scraping, but if you don’t want to remove lead paint, another option is to paint over it. Only consider this option if the old lead paint finish isn’t flaking or cracked.

The best way to remove lead paint is by wet hand sanding and removing all dust and residue with a HEPA vacuum. Professionals may also strip and scrape lead-based paint with a paint scraper. In some cases, you may choose to have a pro encapsulate or enclose your lead-based paint surface by covering it with a sealant or a new material. You may also choose to replace the material altogether.

Disposing of old paint, bleach, oil, and fertilizer should be handled by a company that specializes in this kind of waste. Many private junk removal companies do not dispose of these items. Because these materials are hazardous to the environment and dangerous to handle or dispose of improperly, you should confirm with your local municipality about places to take hazardous materials for safe disposal. 

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?
