"Very professional. Talked with Todd the owner. He was very knowledgeable and hesitant to give me an estimate to remove the flooring if tested positive. I pushed the issue and sent him photos and dimensions of the room. He came back with an estimate. The price he gave me for testing and removal wasn’t in my budget. I hired another Pro for testing. The test came back negative for any traces of asbestos."

"We hired Red Diamond to remove asbestos floor tiles under our carpeting so we could redo our floor. We found out there was hardwood flooring under the tiles. Both Antonio and Skye at Red Diamond were great to work with. They answered every question we had. The crew that did the work, Isaac and I apologize I do not remember his helpers name. Both did a fantastic job. They had to work hard to get the hardwood flooring sanded and ready to be stained. I would recommend Red Diamond for any project you might have. They handled all permitting and testing to make sure the living room was asbestos free. I would hire Red Diamond again if needed."

"The quality of the job was excellent - the team was polite, professional and did a perfect job.  There was no mess at all and the work is beautiful.  I couldn't ask for a better appearance, but was concerned about the long day the team worked.  They started at 8AM and continued past 7PM.
I did, however, have issues with scheduling.  The owner and I originally talked about an early July completion date and it was the end of August before the job was completed.  I sent emails every other week or so to ask about updated schedule since I had purchased a Big Deal for the deck and didn't want it to expire. 
The cost was also higher than I expected - we went back and forth on estimates as I'd removed my balcony and then - after having it reduced in size by a different contractor - added it back to the job.  So I'm a bit confused about final pricing but given the quality of the work, that wasn't overly important to me. 
The owner did talk about focusing on a smaller geographic area which may help with the overall focus with scheduling and job management.  But the work is absolutely beautiful regardless.

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

With regular testing, treatment, and maintenance, water from a community well should be safe to drink. Unfortunately, the EPA does not regulate private wells, and contamination can happen. 

If you have doubts about the quality and safety of your drinking water, you have options for testing. You can pick up kits from your local home supply store or harvest samples and send them to a local testing facility. To get the most complete water quality testing and system diagnosis, seek a local well professional. They know what to test for and can recommend and implement a longer-lasting solution.

Properties should be tested for lead every 2-3 years, especially if they are older, have undergone renovations, or show deterioration of paint or interior finishes.

Professional testing for lead paint costs about $300, ranging from about $250 to $700, depending on the square footage, accessibility, and location. However, testing for lead paint with a DIY home-testing kit costs about $25, but doesn’t guarantee accurate results. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends using a lead test kit that complies with the Lead Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Rule, which has strict criteria for ensuring a more accurate reading.

Common home surfaces to test for lead include:

  • Walls

  • Windows

  • Doors

  • Molding and trim

  • Railings

If your house was built before 1978 and you’re noticing cracking or peeling paint, a lead paint inspection is a good idea. A lead paint inspection gives you accurate information about the presence, location, and condition of lead-based paint in your home. This information is essential for making informed decisions about lead paint removal to ensure your safety and health and that of your family. If your inspector finds lead, you’ll need to take steps to manage or remove the lead-based paint and comply with laws and regulations.

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.
