Joe's assessment was to level the house first, then address plumbing issues. After he explained it, it made much more sense to move the house first, then redo the plumbing instead not visa versa. Joe's quote to do the piers was less than have the cost of the larger firm for the whole project with a recommendation to do only part now and if necessary, the other part later. This second option was less than 1/3 of the price for the original. Joe took the time to explain the process and why thing needed and didn't need to be done. We have a couple of things to sort out before we pull the trigger on starting this, but I assure you that that call will be to Joe.

He used a Groupon for Clean Air America and ended up paying approximate $49 for the service, so I did not hire CAA myself. CAA came to my house on October 24 and performed the duct cleaning. (This was after missing completely a previous appointment on Oct 14, for which I missed an entire day of work, and CAA never followed up. the floor refinisher had to repeatedly call their 800 number to reschedule. I also called multiple times, costing me probably another hour of work time.) I was at work when they performed the service, so my 80-year-old mother let the tech in. After the cleaning, the tech calls me at the office and says he found mold in the ducts "due to the excessive dust generated by the floor refinisher." He said the mold was in a difficult-to-access part of the system, in the attic. I asked for a photo. He texted me a photo of a few spots of what could have been mold, mildew, or just rust, which appeared to be on the frame of the evaporator coil. He said he could do a mold treatment, and that it would be $250, instead of their "usual price" of $500. I was uncomfortable with this but was late for an important meeting and couldn't pursue it at that time, so I agreed to the service, thinking that as far as mold is concerned, better safe than sorry. My mother told me that the tech spent no more than 5 additional minutes and did not use any special physical protection or equipment. I later texted the tech and asked what agent and method he used, and he told me Quat 39 and a fogger. Quat 39 is $17/gallon, and I figured he used maybe a tablespoon at most. So for <5 min and basically $0 cost, I paid $250. This made me suspicious so I did some research. Companies are not supposed to perform mold remediation without testing the sample first, and the same company that tests is not supposed to deliver remediation service. In addition, this has been reported nationwide as a bait-and-switch technique. I have made at least 3 calls to the company. Finding a real phone number and address was quite a challenge, and I finally found the information on the BBB website, and the address is different than the one here on AL. You will NEVER get through on the 800 number. I talked to a male (William?) twice, who identified himself as a manager, and on another occasion to a female who identified herself as the only manager. They were both polite and said they would take my concerns to the owner. I was assured each time that the owner would call me himself (on the last occasion "within 2 hours") but this has never happened. I believe that I was sold a bogus service, and I would like the fee refunded. I gave C's on quality and professionalism only because I have nothing against the tech. I don't actually know how good a job he did.

"After learning that my mother's refrigerator stopped working while she was in the hospital, I exhaustingly started googling for a company to help with this crisis. I called HTX Bio Clean and was confident from our initial conversation I'd found the right team for the job. Unknowingly I spoke to the owner who understood what I needed done, was very personable, and arranged an emergency appointment for the following day (Sunday) a small distance north of Houston, TX. He came to my mother's home, asked some helpful questions about the situation, and began assessing the best way to handle the job. Within a reasonable amount of time he put on the hazmat suit, disassembled the refrigerator that was too wide to get through the door, cleaned out the rottened food, and loaded the broken refrigerator on the truck for removal. My mother was extremely happy with the service and appreciated the care taken while doing it. As the person my mother relies on to get things done when she can't do something herself, it was a great relief to find a company that could handle this emergency with urgency and compassion. I am greatly appreciative and would not hesitate to use the services of HTX Bio Clean again."

FAQs for biohazard remediation projects in Pleak, TX
There are several instances where household biohazard cleanup would be needed. All in all, anytime an event can potentially expose people to chemicals, pathogens, or viruses, a biohazard cleanup company must be called. These events can include:
Sewage backup
Unattended death or crime scene after death
Virus decontamination
Medical waste disposal
Animal waste disposal
Odor control
Hazardous chemical removal
The cost of biohazard cleanup averages between $3,000 and $5,000 for most homeowners. Some services, like sanitizing high-traffic areas or sanitizing surfaces from a virus, cost closer to $1,500. However, other circumstances, like the extensive cleanup after a major sewer backup, could cost as much as $25,000.
While a biohazard cleanup sounds like a scary process, knowing what to expect can help ease your concerns and set you up for success. It’s good to note that more than one professional might be needed depending on your situation, but that will be determined during the assessment. What you can expect during a home biohazard cleanup is the following:
Assessment: The first step in this process is for a biohazard cleanup professional to assess the damage. They create a report that includes the biohazard safety level, the needed damage cleanup, and the time it should take to complete the project.
Setup: The cleanup professional prepares the site to prevent cross-contamination and reduce toxicity risk. This process can include tarping and creating decontamination zones.
Removal of surface contamination: Any contaminated materials are removed from the area, starting with large materials followed by small ones. The professional can assess any floor-related damage once everything is removed from the site.
Salvaging items: The biohazard cleanup professionals assess which items can be saved and which are contaminated beyond the point of saving. Those deemed unsafe will be disposed of immediately.
Waste disposal: The next step is carefully disposing of the hazardous waste. Your professional will place the contaminated items in specific containers to keep the contamination from spreading.
Disinfection: The house will be disinfected and odor-neutralized. Even more minor details, like light switches and bulbs, will be disinfected so that they do not recontaminate the area in the future.
Restoration: Once the decontamination is complete, the last step is to restore the home. This includes repairing the damage to flooring, walls, or even the home's foundation.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies can help cover the cost of biohazard cleanings for specific events. Biohazard events like unattended death, infectious disease, and medical emergency are generally covered, as are flooring and drywall repairs. It’s best to check with your insurance company to see what is specifically covered.
One of the best ways to prepare for a home biohazard cleanup is not to touch anything. Do not remove belongings, even if they are of value or importance, from the area as they are likely contaminated. It’s essential not to use any cleaning products of your own, as the cleaning company will be using chemicals that could interact with your products.
One thing you can do to prepare is take pictures of your space and belongings that need to be cleaned, especially if you plan on filing a claim with your insurance company. In addition, take time to make a list of items that are valuable, sentimental, or otherwise important. The cleanup company must evaluate these belongings to make sure they are safe.
