During the sale of our home in Oak Park, a tank was discovered in the back yard. It was a challenging situation, and we weren’t sure where it was. I had several companies come out, but RW Collins’s estimator was extremely helpful. Their professionalism and reputation reassured us and our buyer that they were the right company for the job.
