"Todd Szada at Umbrella Environmental was awesome! He recommended that we get our vinyl tested for asbestos prior to any attempt at removal - the logic being that if the material did NOT contain asbestos, there would be no need to remove the material. He promptly visited our residence soon after we reached out and obtained a sample, had it tested and let us know that the vinyl did not contain asbestos and there was no need for removal. He saved us a great deal of money and simultaneously sacrificed additional business to help us. Todd is a consummate professional and we are very grateful we found him!"

"RRG removed ceramic tile from two hallways, leveled, replaced and repaired the subfloor in preparation for maple wood flooring to be put in place.  The reason we called RRG in the first place is because the floor company who was contracted to put in the wood flooring and refinish all our wood floors, did not do ceramic tile removal work.  We had seen RRG in our neighborhood on many occasions and we called them to see if the tile removal job wouldn't be too small for them to do. Joe gave an estimate that we accepted and was there on time to begin the two day job.
The job turned out great.  Joe and his crew were there for two days and left both work areas very clean.  This was a very messy job but they built containment blocks of plastic sheeting that minimized residual dust.   
Joe and his crew were thorough and very professional.  If we had known in advance that they did wood flooring and refinishing we would have used them for the entire wood floor replacement and refinishing job.  We will use them in the future.

"I know when I tried to get them out here I set up a time and then they go cancelled a few times eventually they finally came out. It was just kind of weird about the timing on it. Because I think they might have booked up so much that they fell behind. I guess it was not that great I guess I expected more from what I got."

"This was the best construction company I have ever used. Bill the owner was great to work with. He was very open suggestions and easy to work with. His crew was Nick and Terry. They were about the hardest workers I have ever had to deal with. From start to finish this company was great to work with. We could not be happier with the finished project. Everyone in the neighborhood think it is just stunning. Considering our house is over 115 years old the new porch really gave it a facelift. I highly recommend this company."

Lead Testing and 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.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed. 

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

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. 

Some causes of brown well water—like excess tannins or dissolved iron—don’t pose a health risk. In other cases, harmful bacteria might be the culprit. If your well water has suddenly turned brown, it’s a good idea to use a home water test kit to get a better sense of what’s going on with your water. Consider calling a professional for an expert opinion before drinking the water and hoping for the best.
