"We hired Alpha Environmental Services to remove mold in our attic. They responded quickly to our emails and were able to complete the work right away. They explained the procedures thoroughly and kept us informed with before-and-after photos. Friendly, knowledgable, and reasonably priced, I would definitely recommend this company."

"The Bright Creations Painting team was fantastic to work with. They were very responsive, communication was simple and clear, the entire crew was hardworking, professional, respectful and efficient. Eduardo took the lead in communications, preparing the estimate and addressing our questions promptly. He made it clear that his goal was to ensure that we were completely satisfied. They did a really great job and we are super happy with the results as well as the experience of working with them. We have already recommended them to two of our friends who are planning to clean and repaint their homes."

"Rick came in to my house late last year to check on what needs to be done. Later, over the phone, he quoted $1,450 with Angie's List discount - for the above mentioned work - plus $650 for painting. His quote was the most expensive one but he seemed to be professional and had good reviews on Angie's List, hence I decided to hire him. We had to reschedule the work as weather did not permit or he was busy with other work. He showed up on time on the day of work. After he removed the old trims, he suggested not to install z-flashing to avoid new cuts on the siding. He subtracted $300 for the z-flashing with a new total of $1,150 for the job. He applied Grace Vycor Plus window flashing tape on the siding starting from the bottom, then sides, and then to the top of each window. Then, he added 1x3 primed cedar trims around the windows and applied caulk between siding and trim as well as between trim and window frame. He did not paint as he apparently subcontracts painting jobs. He guaranteed his work and said he would come back if any water intrusion issues are seen. He was very professional and pleasant to deal with. I would recommend his work.

"I have been using them for 3 years for multiple projects and would not go to somebody else. They also built a cabin in the woods. It was built 10 miles from the road so it was like carrying all the stuff up the path. They also did the garage and remodeling of the house, mostly kitchen and a little bit of plumbing work in the bathroom. I am still using them and I would be using them for the next thing that will be coming up too."

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.

Unfortunately, lead dust does not look different from any other type of dust. You cannot detect it with the naked eye. To determine if you have lead dust in your home, you will need to hire a local company to take a sample from the paint and test it for you in a lab.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

You do not have to remove lead paint if the surface is not chipping or peeling or if there are no pregnant people or children under the age of six who live in or regularly visit your home. Lead paint is a particular risk for young children whose brains and bodies are not fully developed. Experts strongly recommend that you call a pro to remove lead paint if it’s peeling or flaking, no matter who lives in the home. You can experience lead poisoning by breathing in or ingesting just a small amount of it.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
