"My basement started leaking water and there was mold. I called three contractors from Angie's List and all three quotes were very different and work required ranged from $10,000 to $35,000. One company wanted to jack hammer the entire basement floor and excavate the around the house. Needless and expensive. Ken Bird, owner of CMI Comprehensive Mold Mgmt Inc., however, was professional, explained what needed to be done, provided a fair quote and offered financing information if I was interested. This was the only company who recommended a NY State Licensed 3rd party certification, and guaranteed the work for life. I have already recommended this company to a friend with similar basement issues. The Project Manager onsite was Mike, who was professional, courteous and explained the daily progress during the week they were here. The project included: mold removal and remediation, basement waterproofing (walls), new glass block windows and sump pump well replacement. Overall - five stars !"

"JMAQ did a great job of lead paint abatement in my apartment today! This team of experienced workers was on time, and worked diligently all day correcting the problems. I really admire their work ethic. Additionally, they were courteous and polite, explaining everything they were doing. My apartment, which I am selling, had had 4 violations since 2005 which I only found out about last week. The violations were discovered by the buyers' lawyer. No one had ever mentioned these violations to me in the 12 years I have lived here. I was in a panic to get the violations corrected. I had contacted a few companies, but I was not impressed. One company was a "no show" two different days, after I had waited for them for 4 hours one day, and 6 hours another day. Another company told me on the phone the lead paint abatement process would take one or two months.I was very frustrated. Then I looked at the Home Advisors website, and found JMAQ. I spoke to Sasha of JMAQ on the phone, and I knew from the way she spoke that she was knowledgeable about the lead paint removal process, and that Customer Service was important to JMAQ. Also, she said they would certainly be on time for all appointments.She said they could facilitate the job and get to it right away knowing I was in a bind about getting the apartment sold. The all-important Closing was being held up by the lead paint problem, and I was running out of money with various home-selling costs. She found my apartment violations quickly on the NY HPD website, and gave me a a very good and fair estimate on the phone. Also, she explained that her father, Jose, had had years of experience with lead paint abatement violations. Sasha, Jose, and Victor, Sasha's son, came over to my home the very next day, and Jose checked out the problems. I was impressed by their professional attitude. JMAQ corrected all violations today, only taking a break for lunch. These are hard-working people! The next step will be that they will send an examiner over to take scientific "wipes" of the corrected areas. These wipes will be taken to a lab for examination. After this, my apartment will receive a certificate that the lead paint has been removed. Then, I will take the signed affadavit to HPD so they can officially sign off on it, and the violations will be removed. The estimated total time for all this will be a week, depending on which day the technician can come and do the "wipes". I am looking forward to working with Sasha and Jose as they competently get me through this confusing and difficult time in my apartment selling. I will write another review for this excellent company when we get to the end of the whole process. I feel so relieved to be in the hands of these professionals who are "with me" every step of the way! Thank you, Shirley Gifford"

"The guys were professional, got right to work, and finished my attic in under 4hrs. Competition quoted 3 days, and 1/3 more in cost, this did make me a bit leary, but a couple weeks later I finally removed the barrier and took a look at the end product, and it looks like new again, plus the added baffles that were not installed before. I am still waiting on a follow up with the before and after pics, and overall analysis of the job. One of the workers indicated that I would receive this."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

Ongoing maintenance for lead testing and removal depends heavily on the local climate. New York State experiences harsh freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow that rapidly accelerate paint deterioration on exterior surfaces and window sills. You must inspect encapsulated areas every spring and fall for cracking or peeling. If you own a rental property, you must also schedule periodic visual inspections and dust wipe testing to maintain your required safety certificates.

Helpful?

Build your lead testing and removal inspection routine around the distinct Rochester seasons. In spring, inspect exterior siding and window sills for paint chipping caused by winter freeze-thaw cycles. During summer, check encapsulated surfaces for bubbling triggered by high humidity. In fall, touch up deteriorating areas and replace failing window weatherstripping. Through winter, focus on interior friction surfaces like door frames and change your HVAC filters regularly to minimize airborne dust.

Helpful?

Rochester has many older homes where lead hazards connect to multiple systems. When starting lead testing and removal, disturbing painted surfaces easily releases dust into your HVAC ductwork. Wall or floor work near plumbing chases disrupts pipe connections, especially in homes with older lead solder. Exterior siding work also contaminates foundation soil. Always seal duct registers and check your plumbing connections before beginning any removal project to keep your home safe.

Helpful?

A complete lead testing and removal project in Rochester takes four to ten weeks from the initial inspection to final clearance. The initial on-site inspection requires a few hours, followed by five to ten business days for laboratory results. Scheduling local professionals and securing permits adds up to three weeks. The actual removal phase spans one to six weeks, depending on the home size and the complexity of the specific architectural features.

Helpful?

After finishing lead testing and removal, New York State requires an independent clearance examination with dust wipe samples before you reoccupy the space. You should retain all clearance reports and inspection records for future reference. If your project disturbed plumbing, request a water testing kit from local Rochester resources. For exterior work, test the surrounding foundation soil. Finally, arrange blood lead level tests for any children under six living inside the home.
