"I called Nathaniel after another contractor found suspected asbestos tape in our crawl space. Nathaniel was able to arrange a same-day appointment for me at a price that was the best of all the many companies I called. He arrived on time and was professional, courteous, and competent. I plan to continue with them for the abatement of any issues his testing uncovers and would highly recommend his team!"

"It makes me sad to have to write this review, but I feel obligated to warn people about this company. Mold is a serious problem that can cause very real health complications -- this company is ill-equipped to help you on every level. Steer clear! When I got service in Dec '21, I tried to contact this company for 2 months because it was clear the treatment hadn't worked. At the time, I called both the main office and my technician. The technician told me he'd come back to the house, but never did. I am usually an easy customer who over tips. Their technicians came to the house 3x (to sell me, to treat the house, to retest for mold) and every single time, I had coffee and donuts for them. I knew the names of the technicians kids by the end of this. I was not a difficult customer. They left a lockbox on my front door that needed to be removed. That lockbox was there for 10 months before they finally had a locksmith come take it off my front door. There were other problems with the service, but those now seem minor - they kept rescheduling my date, showed up late, kept quoting me different prices, didn't tell me where they placed my smoke detectors, etc - all minor, indicative of their disorganization, but not a huge deal to me. The real problem is that their treatment doesn't work and after you pay them, they disappear and are completely unresponsive. I'm super sick from mold now and having to spend thousands of dollars to get it out of my system... When they completed my service, they insisted on testing for mold themselves - "it's cheaper, let us test it!" - vs having a 3rd party confirm their treatment had worked. Don't be an idiot like me and let them do this! When they collected the samples, they did so in 10 seconds (I've now learned this is a faulty, ineffective way to collect air samples for mold) - so their faulty tests will show that you have no mold after their treatment... but you still have mold! For two months, I tried to speak to someone about the service. They had promised to respray if it didn't work the first time. No one responded despite several calls and emails. More recently, I started contacting them again in August when I learned I had gotten very ill because their mold treatment doesn't work. I've spent over two months calling their office every week and every week they make up some excuse "we're investigating" "we're waiting for the owner"... but it's been 10+ weeks of me calling and them blowing me off - they hope I will just forget about it and they can keep defrauding customers. At this point, I really just want to warn others to steer clear of this business. They are unethical, unresponsive, and - most importantly - their service is a scam. Beware. I know they will respond to this review with something like "We reached out!" but it's not true. They've blown me off with no offer to remedy the problem for almost a year. This is a bad, unethical business that you should avoid."

"I’m not the first complaint they had like this. Read their BBB complaint and how they handle business when things go wrong. Just hope and pray your inspection goes right because if they miss something - especially a really big problem, they will turn their cheeks. They will remind you that you signed a contract that says “you cannot hold them liable if they are negligent during your home inspection.” Be sure you read your contract and not be fooled by good reviews. Stay away from this company. My inspection was performed by Alyssa Bills on 5/23/21. They ask that you are NOT there during the inspection and now I see why -- because nothing is truly being done and your money is being stolen by this company who talk about God on their website. Don't let that fool you. She only listed 1 thing as a priority repair on my report. I moved on 6/16/21 and my roof leaked on 6/19/21. While a tech was sent to my house to work my dishwasher on 7/5/21, it was discovered that a pipe was leaking in the basement, one of my water heaters was not only broken, but the pipes on it were loose. We have it on video. She never caught that all the gas pipes were loose from the water heater. The igniter was broken and we were running on one water heater the entire time. None were mentioned on the report. Then days later, my master shower started leaking into my kitchen ceiling. When plumbers looked at it it was reported to be cracked - a $8,000 repair. Two plumbers and four remodeling companies have confirmed this as of 10/1. Chris suggested fixing it with a proxy and thank God I did not listen to him and I had a plumber open the drywall to look. Come to find out the bottom of the shower was cracked as well. Since it’s fiber glass it has to fully be replaced. Two plumbers said they won’t touch it. It needs to be remolded. They said how did the inspector not catch that your shower was cracked - it was too obvious. They saw it within 5 minutes of looking at the shower. One was shock Chris suggested a Bandaid (proxy) because had we not open the drywall we would have had mold. My realtor talked to her plumber and he said the same. I have not been able to use my master shower since moving in and today is 9/8/21. If she had listed that the top was cracked I would have at least walked away from the house or ask the owner to fix the problem or ask to have a plumber look that the shower prior to closing. I lost out on all of these options. We have 5 kids and 1 has autism and needs a lot of therapy - who can afford to fix a shower, after buying a house, and taking care of a very demanding child who has tons of different therapies. Recently we had to fix a leak under my kitchen sink from a faucet and broken garbage disposal. The plumber told me there was a previous leak under the sink. Again, not mentioned on her report. He asked if that was not mentioned on my inspection and I said no and he was in disbelief. They have not offered to help. They do not care. So many things were not listed. The owner, Gary, hides behind Chris the manager. Thousands of dollars put into a house and we have only lived there for three months. They want me to sign a document to get a refund. I finally saw the document but it is a documents that states that I can post a negative review if I get my refund or they can sue me. By law, you cannot slap a lawsuit on a consumer or is giving a truthful review. Stay away. They will bring up that you signed a contract that doesn’t hold them liable for negligence. Read your contract and don’t trust these people. You would think they were insured for big mistakes like this. We went back and forth on BBB. My realtor said she will never recommend them moving forward because she saw how they left us stranded. I refuse to sign a document that allows a company to sue me if I write a review about my experience because consumers deserve the right to learn about negative experiences in order to make a good decision on who to hire. This is the wording on the contract they wanted me to sign claiming it was for insurance purposes - on paragraph 5: I will make no public statements of any kind pertaining to the inspector or the inspection, except pursuant to a subpoena or as required by law. I will remove any comments I have posted about the inspection or the inspector from any online website, and refrain from ever making any such comments. if I breach the terms of paragraph 5, I agree to pay your reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in any related legal action."

FAQs for toxic lead testing projects in Acworth, GA

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.
