Grand Army Plz. commercial rents


I am looking to rent an office space at Grand Army Plaza for my psychotherapy practice. Does anyone have a sense of what ground floor commercial office space in the area goes for per square foot? Thanks in advance for any insight.

Carbon monoxide


Our carbon monoxide detector has been going off in our brownstone recently. We are trying to figure out potential sources of the CO. We renovated the house about 2 years ago, and there is a new water heater and furnace and all new appliances. Anyone have thoughts on what the possible sources of CO could be, and on who can help us to resolve this problem?
Thanks very much for any suggestions.

ISO Lead Paint Abater


I know this request has been posted before, but in my search through archives there tend to be more discussions of the ins and outs of lead paint removal rather than actual contractor recommendatinons. Hence my re-post: can anyone recommend a reputable company to help us remove and encapsulate some peeling lead paint on the back of our house? Also, anyone care to share how much such a process should cost?

Thanks.

Exterior lead paint removal


Can anyone recommend a reputable company that can remove lead paint from the rear exterior of our house? We have tested the bits that are flaking off the back and there is indeed lead. We are open to working with someone who specializes in lead abatement or not–we’d just like someone who can do it carefully and safely, as we have a young child. Thanks in advance.

Price for central air maintenance?


We have a central air and heat system in our four-story brownstone. The company that installed the system has just quoted us a price of $1,200 for annual maintenance of the system (e.g., replacing filters, making sure there is adequate coolant, etc.). Does this strike people as high, and if so, what is a more reasonable price? And if you have recommendations for companies who do this type of maintenance work, it would be greatly appreciated as well.
