"It's Showtime has done installations in three homes and will do a fourth in the next month. They are professional, knowledgeable and courteous. I love my entire home music systems and especially my home theater systems with surround sound. They have been great at recommending the systems that meet the needs of a vacation home versus my primary home as well. My relationship with It's Showtime goes back many years so I can speak to their good will in the AV community as well. I highly recommend It's Showtime. . Jeffrey Towns"

"Sean at CoreQuick did a great job for us. I had used his services in the past when I worked at a small business so he was at the top of my list when I needed help with my Mac systems and network at home. He optimized settings for MacOS, installed remote backup (BackBlaze, not just iCloud) on a few computers, installed other security software (in addition to my Norton suite), and made sure it was all working right. We also discussed next steps for home automation."
"No complaints. The Technician was professional and completed the tasks in a professional manner. I used an Angies list coupon for one of the jobs and it was a fair price. The other TV was a little more. I used the Angies list service because I wanted to support local business people. I was surprised to find out the Tech was an independent contractor provided by a California company. A month or so later I needed another TV mounted. In addition to Hellotech I looked into another internet company that begins with "A" that provides local contractors for home repairs. The other service was quite a bit cheaper ($118) and the repair work was comparable. If I can't avoid national internet companies I might as well go for the cheapest."
"We just finished a large addition we had added to our home. Arthur came to our home for our estimate and gave us all of the information we needed. He really educated us on what goes into an addition. He took care of everything and it went smoothly. We are really satisfied with the results and are so happy we went with Best Builders Group. They were always on time, honest and open to ideas and questions we had. If you are looking for a trustworthy and dedicated company then we recommend Best Builders Group!"
"We had Be Green Builders redesigned and build our kitchen, installed new counter tops, stainless steel appliances (that we had), paint and installed some home automation features. The people who did the actual work, the supervisor and the in-house designer were all very knowledge and experienced people. Nir who managed the actual work was a great person to deal with and he did a remarkable job. The office staff who were involved were also great and easy people to work with and they always were very responsive to our questions and concerns (via phone calls or emails). Our participation and involvement with the overall details made our new kitchen a success project and we are very happy with our decision to hire Be Green Builders. Highly recommended company."
"I've been nagged by relentless malware popups on my MacBook Pro over the past year, none of which I was able to defend against despite the purchase of multiple virus software solutions. I needed real help from real pros, someone I could talk to who could address my problem out of the comfort of my home. AIO Integrations fixed my issue in less than 20 minutes via a scheduled call and provided helpful tips on how to prevent annoying (and threatening) malware attacks in the future. I strongly recommend AIO Integrations LLC to anyone seeking professional service, deep technology experience and a 'can-do' customer-first' outcome. My only regret is that I didn't find AIO Integrations earlier. This was a 5 Star experience. And thank you, Robert Trembath!"
"Wow, I spoke to representative who did not try to sell me anything just listened to what i wanted then gave me the best deal. The equipment showed up in a cool box and is was simple to instal. Literally, I just plugged in the gateway to a wall outlet, peeled off the adhesive and stuck the sensors on my doors and windows called for activation and it was done. Now I can control my home from my cell phone. Its super cool and I plan to add other devices like remote control lighting and a video camera. Truly am pleased to say the least. I always get nervous to order over the phone, but Skycover is the greatest. I am a happy camper!"
Fresh baseboards can increase a home’s value because they refresh the look of your walls. This can make a good impression on buyers and potentially boost your home’s resale value. This is particularly helpful if your existing baseboards are in bad shape, which can age the look of your walls.
Consider also investing in the cost to install shoe molding for an extra-polished look that can further boost resale value.
Costs depend on home size, number of rooms staged, duration of staging, and furniture rental needs.
The average cost to stage a home is around $1,800, with most sellers paying between $800 and $2,800 for professional services. However, the total cost can vary significantly, ranging from $500-$600 for an initial consultation to $5,000 or more for comprehensive, full-home staging.
The final price depends on several factors, including the home's size, location, and condition, as well as the number of rooms being staged. Other key cost drivers include whether you need to rent furniture, the quality of the decor, the stager's experience, and the duration of the staging services. The scope of the project also plays a role, from virtual staging and simple decluttering to full-service design, which may involve repairs and maintenance.
Avoid using a home equity loan for non-essential or short-term expenses like vacations, luxury purchases, or temporary financial fixes. It’s best to reserve home equity loans for long-term investments, such as home improvements, that can add value to your property or financial position.
Keep it clutter-free, ensure bright lighting, and follow staging recommendations to maintain visual appeal.
