I chose #2. The concrete was cut without using a wet saw and the smoke alarm upstairs was activated due to the amount of dust throughout the house. There are varying degrees of concrete dust throughout most of our home now. New supply lines were installed that angled out approx. 9"from the wall creating a trip hazard. concrete trench was patched and we determined that the hot water did not work in the master bath sink/shower. I was then told that option 1 would be necessary to access the previously abandoned pipe that was the original leak. Another plumber (Shannon) came out to inspect the work and he stated that additional concrete would need to be removed to find a T'd pipe to re establish hot water to the master bathroom. This would cost an additional $1000.00. Rather than remove and bear the cost of taking duct work off the furnace I relied on the "expertise" of the company I had hired. So we agreed we would not take the duct work apart and try to find the pipe with more concrete removal. This morning a HVAC person called to tell me he was on his way to remove the duct work. I told him he was not what was agreed on and subsequently called mr. plumber, cancelled any further work and told them they could send people to pick up there equipment and the check for $1946.00. Two gentlemen showed up and cleaned the work area as well as they could. It will still need professional cleaning to address clothes in closets, linens on beds, and wall/ counters etc. It could have ben avoided had they used pipe locating technology that plumbing companies small and large either use, or have access to.
I am astounded that this company enjoys an A+ rating with your list. Terrible work that left my home filthy and necessitates hiring another plumber to establish water service to my master bath, which was working prior to mr. plumbers work. I have sent mr. plumber the comment card provided after payment. Never again.

Great and thorough job! We put in an offer on this home and needed some expert advice on the condition of the home since it was older. Jim was very good at looking at every area and was able to point out subtle issues that we had overlooked when we looked at the house initially. Jim was able...

I purchased the door and door hardware at Lowes and brought it home. Mr. Handyman arrived on time. Once the tech inspected the existing door, he asked a few questions and than started. I was obvious to me that he knew what he was doing. He installed the door and all of the hardware. He did a...

"The inspection revealed hidden structural damage that would have potentially cost us thousands of dollars of unexpected repairs. Mr. Quinn was very thorough in his inspection and we were extremely happy with his thoroughness. He did not just walk around the house with a check list and look at the house. He actually did what I expect when someone inspects a house and crawled in on and around the entire house. I would highly recommend him and will look to hire him again when we find another property we are interested in. Thank you!"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts
Long-term exposure increases lung cancer risks. Prolonged homestay individuals and smokers encounter heightened vulnerability and exposure concerns.
Yes, many repair services offer chimney inspections to ensure proper airflow and fire safety compliance.
Foundation cracks won’t always affect your appraised value. All foundations crack due to normal settlement, so hairline cracks that aren’t leaking or uneven from side to side are unlikely to have an impact on your appraisal. Structural cracks, on the other hand, often lead to a reduced appraised value, especially if the underlying problem will cause the issue to worsen over time.
While you can change an air filter yourself, you should have a licensed HVAC technician conduct your HVAC inspection. HVAC professionals have the knowledge, tools, and experience to investigate each part of your system, tune it up as needed, and offer you expert recommendations.
While it’s not mandatory unless you’re purchasing a home, it is important to schedule regular home electrical inspections for safety and to maintain your house’s value. Inspections can reduce fire risk and can help save money on insurance premiums. They can also catch problems before they start, saving money on repairs down the line.
