Meth Positive!!! Recommendations???
I'm in the process of selling a house in Denver and managed to get it under contract.
The buyers had it meth tested and it came up positive! This is crazy!!!
I now have to have the entire property tested.
Any recommendations on a reputable company to do the testing?
And if you've been through this yourself, any insights on what to expect would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

@Bob Foglia no fun and very expensive. I have been through this. Colorado has very low limits (near the detection limit) for meth so it's a real challenge. They also have very rigorous requirements (again test results near or just below the detection levels) for getting a "clean" house. You definitely want to do lots of learning. Beware of websites offering to do it all for you. At one point (it's been a few years since I delt with this) there was a nationwide advertiser (high ranking on Google search) that had contracted with the low cost provider in Denver and had a non-compete clause. If you went to the Google guy first the low cost guy couldn't/wouldn't work for you. Not sure of how things are now. I don't have time to post more. You can DM or call me if you would like to discuss. As I said, it's been a few years so I don't want to name names here as things might have changed.
