Customers say: Quick response

"I placed the request for leaf and debris/trash removal, and Ricardo contacted me within 15 minutes. He came out immediately to survey and to give me an estimate. He and a companion cleaned the yard and buiding side grounds of the business the next day and left the place in BROOM CLEAN condition (I wanted a good cleaning job but did not expect this), including plant beds and corners. The cost was $50 under the original quoted price and he hauled away trash and leaves. I will be using M..C. Landscaping for other projects and for maintaining our grounds."

"I had some mattresses, frames, cabinets and other miscellaneous furniture that needed to be junked/hauled away, and the guys were super responsive, professional, and easy to work with. As I do more work around my house that requires a cleanup or removing of junk, I’ll definitely be reaching out again. Thanks!"

"Brent Tucker and his crew showed up at nine in the morning. They went right to work corralling the leaves into a gigantic pile from all parts of the yard. Then gave the leaves to the vacuum machine. By two in afternoon the leaves were gone and the yard was sparkling. I'd hire Brent Tucker and his crew in a heartbeat."

"I am very satisfied with Brownleeâ s service. I got a quote and previously bagged leaves and a large fallen branch were removed the same day. Owner Chris Brownlee also quoted to cut down and remove a large dead tree along with other debris. He and his crew were able to safely drop and remove the tree within days of the quote. I am planning on seeking an estimate for stump removal and grinding in the near future. Chris was very personable and professional. The pricing was reasonable and the service excellent."

Leaf Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Lead toxicity comes from inhaling lead or consuming it. Before the 1980s, when the government banned lead from consumer use, it could be found in paint, plumbing, pipes, ceramics, and even gasoline. Lead paint is toxic for the same reason lead itself is toxic, which is why lead poisoning from paint presents the same as lead poisoning from water or food sources, with a slight increase in respiratory symptoms vs. digestive symptoms. Lead paint is most dangerous when it’s old and peeling, cracking, or otherwise disturbed. This increases the concentration in the air and, therefore, in breathable air. 

Government regulations such as the EPA and OSHA govern lead removal procedures to ensure health and environmental safety during and after abatement.

While the EPA provides guidelines for homeowners to perform DIY lead paint removal, it is a risky process and generally not recommended due to serious health risks and strict regulatory requirements. The process requires precise safety precautions, such as wearing a respirator and protective eyeglasses, creating sealed exits, and using a HEPA vacuum for cleanup. To ensure the job is done safely, effectively, and in compliance with regulations, it is highly recommended to hire a professional lead abatement company. Certified professionals have the necessary training, experience, and specialized equipment (like chemical strippers and HEPA vacuums) to handle and dispose of hazardous materials safely.
