"I had an excellent experience with One Stop Restoration in remediating flood damage to my finished basement and restoring it to its original condition. From start to finish, I felt I was in caring and experienced hands – it was clear that everyone engaged on my project was passionate about fairness, timeliness, quality, and superior customer service. They came to assess the situation the same day that I discovered the issue and called them, and within three days furniture and other contents had been evaluated and moved out and the remediation work was completed (special thanks to Leigh and Brody for making that happen). One Stop’s fast action preserved my belongings and mitigated the water damage to the furthest extent possible. When the time came for the restoration work to begin, I decided to continue with One Stop and am very glad that I did, as the end result is beautiful and exactly as I had desired. The crews and various contractors that One Stop employed were seasoned craftspeople who arrived on time, did efficient and excellent work, and maintained a clean worksite. Omer, the owner, made himself accessible whenever needed – he was incredibly responsive to questions and requests and helpful in explaining the process so I knew what to expect. And Nir, who managed my restoration project, was incredible – I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in navigating that process. A true pleasure to work with, he took care to listen to and understand my needs and concerns and did his utmost to deliver the highest quality service in as timely and cost conscious a manner as possible. Collectively, the team at One Stop made a very difficult situation as stress-free as possible. I have seen them refer to themselves online as “saviors in your time of need,” and I can certainly attest to that in my case. As the result of my experience, I trust and recommend them highly. While I hope that I don’t have a property damage situation like this again, if I do they will be my first call!"

Every home owner views basement flooding as your biggest nightmare. In the end, you should perform a large amount of cleaning, draining, basement waterproofing as well as salvaging of things following a flood entering your house. Now, you should observe that the very first two days following the flood is vital. You need to act promptly following a basement flooding simply because not doing this can further the damage caused to your property as well as belongings. Also, extending the flooded basements cleanup may even result in safety and health hazards for that home's occupants.

"Amazing they are very professional and polite! They answered all my questions and worked very quickly!"

2018 Super Service Award Winner in Roofing, Painting Exterior, Gutters, Drywall, Decks/Porches and Carpentry Unfinished! There are many construction companies out there that will only help you solve half or less of your project needs, meaning you need to use more than one company to get what you want done. One company will install a roof system, but won't do the soffit work, or one will install Hardiplank siding but won't paint it. At Housworth, we are one company with expertise in many areas of construction. We won't leave any project half done. Housworth was established in 1929 by Gladis Housworth. It was known as the Housworth Plumbing Company up until the time it was taken over by Jack Patrick. It then became Housworth Construction. It is now managed by Laila Patrick the current CEO. We have been under Laila Patrick's leadership for the past 12yrs. Locally owned & operated. Additional contact name - 2018 Super Service Award Winner in Roofing, Painting Exterior, Gutters,& Drywall.

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

It is not advisable to try to retrofit your home without the expertise of a professional. These projects usually require a consultation with a structural engineer and a plumber for any gas-related adjustments. Working with a professional earthquake retrofitting contractor is the best way to ensure that any structural work done to your home will help protect you and your family.

Hearing or feeling vibrations in your house can be unsettling, but there are a few possible causes for a vibrating noise in your wall or floor. Light bulbs and fixtures, circuit breakers, loose pipes, or faulty wiring could all cause vibrations. If you’re not sure what’s causing the vibrations, you can call a contractor to assess your home and narrow down the cause.

Many homeowners want to know whether earthquake retrofitting is tax deductible. Because it’s often considered a capital improvement, you usually can’t deduct it. In some cases and locations, you may qualify for tax incentives, but you’ll need to talk to a tax professional or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) about your specific circumstances. You may also be able to find grant money for seismic upgrades, which can lower the cost of your insurance premiums and save money over time.

Generally, the retrofitting process can take two to four weeks. Your contractor will let you know if staying in your home for the entire project is feasible. However, most people are able to remain at home. If your home is undergoing earthquake rehab, it's more likely that you'll need to leave until work is complete. Your earthquake insurance may cover boarding costs if your home is deemed unsafe.

Even if you invested in the cost of a gas shut-off valve for your oven and other appliances, it’s a good idea to add a seismic shut-off valve as an extra safety measure. 

Gas shut-off valves for appliances are manual, meaning someone has to cut off the flow of gas. This leaves room for error, as you might not be home or might be too distracted to think about gas lines during an earthquake. An earthquake valve is automatic and will protect your home from gas-related disasters in the event of an earthquake.
