"Initial visit was not good. Jose was condescending and not understanding the situation. Second visit included the branch manager. While they spent a lot of time, I was quoted $1700+ to “fix” the issue. Turns out Jose misdiagnosed the bathroom venting problem. Said venting never went anywhere and needed to cap it off in the attic. While I am not a plumber, I saw the situation- pipes had come apart from the junctions. No investigation- it was completely apparent. So either incompetent or fraudulent, do NOT use this company."

"Absolutely appalled by the unprofessional manner of this company. We called this company as a second opinion for an issue with our AC. After the first quote we had a general idea of the issue but being naive to this matter we thought it best to get a second opinion. The technician- ISMEAL SAMANO- absolutely tried to take advantage of the fact that only myself was here (female,29) and not my husband. After getting the feeling this was happening - I followed my gut and called my husband to have him speak with the tech directly (all of which was on speaker, I was able to hear everything). This tech spoke of many issues - suggested a whole new AC UNIT, and then casually let my husband know he would be "rinsing off the coil, probably won't do much, but may help for now". At the time of payment, I received a total of $221.30. The original price of the quote was $89. Confused I asked the technician to please explain the additional cost. He seemed lost.. Could only say that "I normally HAVE to charge close to $300 for that rinse service, I dont feel comfortable doing to that you. So I charged you the least I could." - Which was around $130.00 for a rinse... of our water. I made sure to ask if this was proper procedure for their technicians to performs tasks on a unit that cost money to the homeowners, without their knowledge. No reply. Before the technician left, my husband and I made sure to ask what exactly that rinse did, are we able to run the unit now at least? This technician told us yes. Although the technician from days prior from COOL TODAY made sure to tell us to try to leave it off as much as possible due to overheating. Scared of what can happen in that instance I made sure to be clear to ask this technician again that it is safe to keep on. He said yes again, just as the unit shut off and can very audibly hear it attempting to kick back on (causing it to overheat). I pointed this out to him and he attempted to say it was because our thermostat was set to that temperature, that is why it cut off. I immediately went to set it lower to show him that is not the case, that it won't kick back on and stay. But instead, this technician absolutely knew we were skeptical of him and his request for payment and that his "rinse" for $130 did absolutely nothing. He nearly ran out the door. After going through all of this I attempted right away to call customer service to inquire if this is proper procedure for their technicians to do this without homeowner approval. Her response was "No, but it sounds like there may have been things said I don't know about, so wait for 12 hours and well get back to you". Absolutely appalled. I greatly pride myself on my involvement with my community and close-knit relationship with my mom groups online. I am happy I am at least able to spread this awareness so all my other Mama's can avoid being targeted by despicable company. Be safe and aware Mama's, ladies, and everyone without proper knowledge!"

"Christian and his crew have been doing my monthly landscaping for several years. After the hurricanes, my yard was a mess. They got there quickly and were reasonable in pricing. Saltwater was not friendly to a lot of my plants and some of my trees. I got estimates from multiple landscapers but Christian worked with me and did a great job. Now multiple people in the neighborhood hired him to do all of their landscaping. That's the best recommendation one can get!"

"We were very pleased with the services provided by Gilbert Design Build. We wanted to renovate the kitchen and to place an accent wall with electric fireplace and TV in the living room. The project begins with meeting the president and the designer to discuss ideas and samples see if we're all a good fit. The designer and president then visit the house to see the exact spaces to be built or renovated. The project manager then completes measurements and designer orders materials. When all materials are on hand the site manager schedules the professionals in tile, plumbing, electrical, and framing to their dates Each was pleasant, worked with cleanliness, and delivered a great product. Only two glitches occurred in the process: 1. The distance between the TV and the fireplace heater was not sufficient. This took more tiling but was corrected. 2. The pots and pans rack was very noisy. This was corrected with drawers. Overall a very professional job by Gilbert Design and Build."

French Drains questions, answered by experts

Yes, short hair can clog a drain. While you might be tempted to blame the long-haired people living with you for a clogged drain, hair—no matter the length—can combine with soap scum and leftover shampoo to create a perfect storm of sticky mess that can cause your drain to slow down. 

When you put baking soda and vinegar down the drain, they chemically react and help break down clogs. It’s not going to work for every type of clog, however. For example, it’s not the best way to get rid of grease buildup. For grease, you should try boiling water and white vinegar instead.

This depends on the location of the blockage. If the blockage is in your home’s system, anywhere in the system, it is your responsibility as a homeowner. Blockages seldom happen because of items or buildup coming from the city, which means it originates in the home. It becomes the city’s responsibility at the exact point your home’s line distributes waste into the city’s system. The exception is if the problem in your home damages the city lines.  

To get rid of a sewer smell in your crawl space, you’ll have to find the source of the problem. If it has to do with your sewer lines, then repairing the line will help. You may need to make other repairs, like fixing your sump pump or encapsulating your crawl space to reduce moisture. After you make the repair, depending on the issue, you may still need to clean out your crawl space to get rid of the stink.

No, you cannot use a drain cleaner in a dishwasher, as it can damage your drain hose or dishwasher. After using a drain cleaner, you may experience leaks or mechanical issues. You may need to replace your drain hose or other parts of your dishwasher.
