"If I could give 100 stars, I would! I had water damage on July 3rd of this year. After removing the water from the floor, I thought I was done... until I went to my garage and noticed water dripping from the ceiling. At that point, I knew I was in trouble. I went to Google, and UWRG was the first hit I saw. Panicking and with high anxiety, I called the number. I spoke with Rob (owner), who was lovely, sweet, and reassuring. About 30 minutes-1 hour later, Rob and Jeron were at my house to assess the damage. I explained how I worried about my garage as the water dripped from my ceiling. After using the infrared technology, Rob informed me that I would need to claim as there was damage to my garage ceiling. My worst nightmare was actualized (home insurance). The home insurance I had came with the builder (I am in a new build of 4+ years), and my intuition told me that I would have to fight to get things done correctly... and I was right. Without UWRG, I would've given up on the process. I had to file a complaint with the NC Department of Insurance Commission (thanks to UWRG for the tip) as the adjuster wanted to pay 50% of the mitigation cost. To be clear, the mitigation cost was for the emergency work that UWRG had to do to remove the water damage. I had humidifiers running for ten days to dry out my walls. Mitigation costs are COVERED LOSSES. This means your home insurance company HAS to pay this cost. After filing my complaint, UWGR received 100% of the covered loss payment. I wish that were the end of the story, but it wasn't. I (the homeowner), the mortgage company, and UWGR must sign the checks. I signed the checks and sent them to my mortgage company (through overnight mail), where one of the checks was lost. I didn't realize this until I called and had them hunt down the checks. At that point they took full responsibility and admitted they lost the checks. I contacted my home insurance company to have the one check canceled and reissued. My home insurance company canceled BOTH checks and reissued them. The problem was UWRG deposited the other check. Karen G of UWRG was soo helpful in my time of need. Whenever I was highly stressed or anxious (whenever I thought of this situation), she would calm me down and provide pointers on how to mitigate the numerous issues. At no point in the process did Karen, Rob, or anyone at UWRG become frustrated with me, even though I was extremely frustrated in the process, as we (myself and UWRG) did everything correctly to get this unfortunate situation handled correctly. As I said in the beginning, my water damage happened on July 3rd, 2022. All checks for the covered loss and rebuild were finalized on November 20th, 2022. That is four months, which is way too long. For those that do not know, you have 180 days (or six months) after the filing of the claim to send in invoices for repairs. I was starting to get worried as my six months ended on January 3rd, 2023. I hope none of you reading this review have to deal with water damage or any loss to your home. If you do, I would HIGHLY suggest having UWRG be your representative to get your home back to its original state. Without UWRG, my home would still be a disaster. I cannot thank them enough for guiding me through this horrible process."

"My house had been infested with mold for countless years, I hadn’t the money to hire anyone. My friend’s family had just started their business recently and told me they would do the job for cheaper so I asked; they did. They were quick and respectful—in and out—and made sure to not shirk an inch of the property. I’m grateful to them I can finally breath freely in my house without worry of inhaling toxic materials. While they were there one of their workers, Juan, noticed a leak of sewage in the basement. He spent the rest of his available time to dry out the sewage and properly clear the leak. Now I might be a bit biased, but, I would highly recommend hiring them and if I have another issue with mold (MAKE SURE TO TEST REGULARLY PEOPLE!!) I’ll call on them."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Charlotte, NC

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a strong chance it contains lead-based paint. Many pre-1980 houses also contain lead in their plumbing and decorative materials, so age alone is a significant red flag. Older homes near industrial areas face an even higher risk. Because you can’t confirm lead by sight, scheduling a test is the safest way to protect your family.

In older houses, lead can lurk in painted trim, window sashes, soil around the foundation, plumbing pipes, and even vintage hardware. The metal is toxic, and children and pregnant women are most at risk. Exposure can trigger developmental delays, learning problems, and organ damage. Because the EPA links even low levels to serious health effects, test every suspected surface and address any hazards right away.

A positive test means lead is present somewhere you can touch, breathe, or disturb. The next step is a full risk assessment to map exactly where the hazard lies and outline the safest fix: encapsulation, enclosure, or full removal. Repairs start at $1,000 but can exceed $10,000 for complete elimination, so act quickly and hire certified pros to keep your family safe.

EPA lead certification proves that inspectors, risk assessors, and abatement contractors follow federal safety rules under the Renovation, Repair, and Painting (RRP) Program. The credential costs an average of $300, and certified professionals can legally test, contain, or remove lead hazards. Hiring a certified pro protects you from fines and ensures the work meets strict health standards.

Lead-based paint looks no different from any other paint, so you can’t identify it by color or sheen. Even flawless walls may hide it. If paint starts chipping, flaking, or peeling, schedule a professional test right away. Only laboratory-grade testing confirms lead and guides the safest fix for your home.
