I fix, repair, install and handle all plumbing needs. I install any appliances that need installed including but not limited to dishwasher, stoves, refrigerator, hot water heaters, sower/tub doors, toilets ect......

"Don't trust this company if you are looking for them to stand behind their work and fix an issue after installation. They will take your money quickly, but will not be quick to respond or fix the issues after installation. We had a Rinnai tankless boiler/ Hot water heater installed by J & M Plumbing and it failed/ started leaking after just over a year of being installed. After paying almost $10,000 for this replacement you would expect quality work. After reaching out to Michael to get it resolved we are still waiting for a response on when the unit can be fixed. We have had to contact Rinnai directly to get this resolved and hire another plumber. Save yourself the frustration and look for another company. Please learn from our experience Check our other review sites and the complaints on the BBB website you will find many more dissatisfied customers. I hope this helps someone else from making the same mistake we did."

View our video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vF_MmZvPewI&feature=youtu.be We are a full service commercial and residential painting company specializing in decorative finishes. Established in 1918. J.N. Fogg & Son began with E.L. Fogg, a contractor and paint store owner in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, in 1918. That paint store is also where John Fogg Sr. was born and raised (So painting really is in his blood!). After his Honorable Discharge from his service during the Korean War in the U.S. Air force, John Sr. moved to Ct. in 1958 (where he met his wife whom he married in 1960), to continue with his expertise in the painting industry. John Jr. was also apprenticed in J.N. Fogg & Son and added to his repertoire an extensive art background extending today's J.N. Fogg & Son, LLC services to include many decorative finishes and textures. A Message from the Owner: I am a 3rd Generation Painting contractor specializing in Decorative finishes such as Faux finishes and Venetian Plaster. I have a background in art, so I always enjoy doing an accent wall, Faux, or something different than the ordinary solid color wall. I am also proficient in installing many types of wall coverings. Lately we have been doing a lot of Historic Restoration work, which often involves restoration carpentry prior to the painting. We employ carpenters as well as painters. There has been a resurgence of restoration work as many homeowners are coming to realize that there are grants available. We are listed in the restoration services directory on Connecticut Trust for Historic Preservation web page.

Lead testing and removal services FAQs

Lead paint removal costs about $3,600, ranging from $1,500 to $5,800, depending on several factors, such as square footage, removal method, and its location in your home. Keep in mind that lead paint removal costs $8 to $17 per square foot, ensuring a permanent and maintenance-free fix.

Additional cost factors for lead paint removal include:

  • Location

  • Materials and equipment needed

  • Disposal method

  • Accessibility

  • Surface types

  • Repairs needed

  • Labor

Professional lead-paint abatement companies use a variety of methods to remove lead-based paint, depending on each particular situation. Some of the most common methods include:

  • Total removal: $8–$17 per square foot

  • Demolition and replacement: $1,000–$15,000 per project

  • Encapsulation: $4 per square foot

  • Enclosure: $10 per square foot

  • Chemical stripping: $10–$17 per square foot

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

A professional lead paint removal company should remove any lead-based paint from your home. You should not remove or paint over it yourself because handling lead-based paint poses health risks, according to the EPA. Professionals trained and certified to handle lead-based paint abatement use specialized equipment like HEPA vacuums and methods like chemical stripping and abrasive blasting to remove paint and particles as safely as possible. They are also trained on how to properly dispose of lead-based paint material.

You should ask a few questions to ensure that your potential lead removal professional is experienced and qualified to handle lead-paint abatement safely, legally, and properly.

  • What are your qualifications and experience removing lead-based paint?

  • Are you licensed and certified to remove lead-based paint?

  • How do you test for lead paint?

  • What methods do you use for lead-based paint abatement?

  • What do you plan to do with the hazardous material when you remove it from the home?

  • Do you do replacement and painting work or removal only?
