Established in 1968, we are a family run business with 5 employees.

"This guy is not a General Contractor. He is a handyman at best. He doesn't pull permits or get inspections done. He did our bathroom remodel and his work is sub-par. He put the light in and it needs to be changed out do to it hanging over the mirror. Once he put the new one in it had to be patched. Didn't wait for the patch to dry and painted over it and got paint all over our new light. The bas of the new shower is not pitched so we have water pooling in our shower every time we use the shower. This was brought to their attention when the cement was poured and we were assured that it was pitched correctly, after tile was put in and it indeed was not pitched correctly they refused to correct it. They put the wrong trim in and we had to replace it. They put the trim around the door which also had to be removed as it was put in wrong and covered the hinges and we couldn't put the door on until we removed the trim. They removed a window where the shower was and put in a glass block window. Which was fine but they didn't put the correct window to code. I have uploaded some of the photos but deleted most of them already due to my frustration! But I have attached the email sent to him with no response from him. Just all in all a joke!"

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

You can sell a house with lead paint, but there are several requirements. If you are aware that lead paint exists anywhere in the home, you must disclose that to potential buyers. Required home inspections will often uncover lead paint, especially for older houses where lead paint may still be a problem. If you have taken steps to encapsulate lead, you should provide buyers with full documentation of the project so it won’t cause any problems later on.

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 the lead paint is in a place that is not easily disturbed and is not flaking or deteriorating, you do not necessarily need to remove it. Lead is toxic when dust particles or flakes from peeling lead paint are ingested. If people are not in the area with the lead paint, it may be safe to leave it in place. You still may want to consider encapsulation with a paint formulated for covering lead-based paint, just for an added layer of protection.

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.

Iron sediments from rusty pipes are not likely to cause health problems. While a glass of yellow-hued water is off-putting, it is generally safe to drink yellow water in the short term. But you certainly want to address this problem. In the meantime, switching to bottled water until the yellow water issue is resolved is a good idea.
