"Accu Level overpromised and underperformed. We reached out to have a simple job performed as part of selling our house. From the start, we were told the work could be performed prior to closing. Due to timing and this promise, we did not get any other bids. Upon receiving the contract, we paid the deposit within one hour. From this point on, there was no communication from the business that was not initiated by us. We texted our rep and called the office every day from this point on to see when the work would be scheduled. There was no proactive communication whatsoever. Finally, one day before closing, our real estate agent demand a date to be scheduled and it was scheduled two weeks after closing. Thankfully, we had a flexible buyer who was willing to close without the work being done. On the day the work was supposed to be scheduled, with no notice, it was postponed for another week and the buyer had to find a time to reschedule. This had to be communicated to me by my realtor and not the business. After the work was done, I reached out to our rep to explain how disappointed we were with the customer service. This was verbatim his response: "Please understand this is not our normal scenario and there were people let go/had responsibilities changed because of it." I asked to speak to his manager. Upon speaking with the manager, he said they weren't willing to do anything to make amends for the lack of customer service even with his rep openly admitting that they did not meet their promises. The manager quoted back terms of the contract to me that they are allowed to reschedule and I explained that this was not a contractual dispute, but a complaint about customer service when an employee openly admitted fault and he was not willing to take accountability for his employee. I asked to speak to his manager. This conversation happened two weeks ago and I'm still waiting for that call. Don't use this business if you want any level of customer service."

"We recently moved to a 95 yr old home. We were told we had a dry basement when in fact we did not. We looked in to basement waterproofing with a couple different companies but the scope of the work and the cost didn’t feel like the right solution. We had Don come out and he was very knowledgeable, professional and very courteous. He recommended some things that the other companies did not. He actually talked us out of mor expensive fixes. He said he believes in starting with the least intrusive, least expensive options first. His solutions worked for us. We would 10/10 recommend Don and his crew at Foundation Doctors LLC."

"Signed a contract to have my 2 car garage floor resurfaced and coated. Paid required deposit and was told it would be 6 weeks out. Company supplies a trailer for you to store contents of your garage while work is being done. I had to contact company at 5 weeks because I had not heard from anyone. I was told there were not sufficient trailers available but if I could store my garage contents they could do the job next week. Then I receive a call that my scheduled day had to be pushed back because of machinery issues. Then the following day I get a call that they have reviewed the condition of my garage floor and it is too far gone to handle the resurfacing process. Total incompetence !

"Do NOT waste your time and money I had the WORST overall experience with All Square Roofing. I wouldn’t recommend to ANYONE. I originally reached out to All Square because of the favorable reviews which is why I’m taking the time out of my busy day to warn others. TIMELINE On March 22, 2022- I signed a contract to get windows replaced on my sun porch. The sales rep was pleasant and warned me that it would take 12-14 weeks for the job because of window shipping delays. I was completely fine with the timeline and paid a deposit of $1,654.00. 3/31/22- Someone came to re-measure the windows to ensure they proper size would be ordered 7/13/22- I called to check on the status of the project and was told that they had no record of window measurements being done and they assumed I didn’t want to move forward with the project. *If that was true, wouldn’t I call to try to get my 1654.00 back? I went through my old messages and found the phone number of the person who measured the windows. I called and provided them with this information and they “magically” found the windows in their warehouse. They scheduled the window install twice and did NOT show up. (I took off work to be home for nothing) 8/12/22- a subcontractor sent out by All Square finally came to install the windows. When they arrived, the contractor said that the windows were incorrectly measured and it would require extensive framing to make them fit. They did not have the supplies to do they job and left *The subcontractor apologized but also shared that many of the jobs he gets from All Square has issues and their customers are not happy 8/22/22- the subcontractor returned and installed the windows. PLEASE SEE THE PICTURES BELOW. Some of the screens they installed where ripped which was the least of the problems. There are multiple gaps between the window and the framing. There are holes around the window where I can see directly outside. I can stick an entire butter knife in the gaps.I can stick the butter knife from the inside of the sunporch and see it sticking out outside. They also left glass EVERYwhere and nails unclipped. I immediately called All Square (no answer) and sent an email detailing the issues with pictures.I also reached directly out to the manager Ryan Murphy I received no answer for weeks. I continued to call and email every week until I finally got a call from John asking for payment. 9/14/22 I explained the situation to John who mentioned they were about to send the bill to debt collections. I was more than willing to pay the balance once the job was done. John reviewed the pictures and stated that the only thing they could do to fix it was dry wall and insulate the sun porch which would come with additional cost. He also mentioned what he saw in the pictures was “expected” and reasonable work but he would reorder screens to replace the ripped ones. He also mentioned the sale rep should have never quoted me the job. After an exhausting conversation we agreed on a concession of a discount on the balance. I told him I would send over an electronic payment as soon as if received confirmation that the screens for the windows were reordered. Also on a side note he mentioned that “Tim” had been let into my house by an “Eric” who Tim said identified himself as my brother when he came to evaluate the complaints about the window install. Neither my wife or I have any brothers or know ANYONE by the name of Eric. Our house is also under 360 video security surveillance and I reviewed all the footage from the install to yesterday and saw no males enter my home at ANY time. I’m only mentioning this to further point out the untruths and miscommunication. I followed up for weeks regarding the screen order. After a no-show the screens arrived on 11/30/22.The screens that arrived were the wrong size so the guy just repaired the ripped ones. I paid the remaining balance on 12/1/22 and closed this horrible chapter. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME"

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Even if a homebuyer has no intention of using the fireplace installed in the home they’re thinking of buying, it’s vital to know when the fireplace and chimney were last inspected. Aside from learning that it can operate properly, homebuyers will want to know that the structures themselves are sound and won’t affect the integrity of the surrounding home. With full knowledge, homebuyers can then make plans for any necessary repairs before they move in. 

You can start inspecting your roof from the ground by looking for unevenness in the roof lines and slopes. Keep an eye out for broken, damaged, or missing shingles, and look for visible gaps where the roofing material meets exterior walls or roof penetrations, like your chimney. If you’re comfortable getting up on your roof and using the necessary safety equipment, you can get a closer look at these areas to identify signs of damage. If you notice any potential issues, it’s best to call in a professional to confirm your findings.

Normal home inspections do not include sewer lines or septic systems, hazardous materials like radon or mold, swimming pools, electrical systems, or pest problems. Most of these require a separate inspection by a qualified pro in addition to a general home inspection.

Insurance companies will often take pictures of your house to confirm property details before issuing a policy or after receiving a claim. The insurance company may keep these photos on hand to compare to later pictures if you make a claim. It’s common for an insurance company to send someone to photograph the exterior of your home and your property without notifying you in advance. However, they’ll need to let you know ahead of time if they need to take interior pictures.

Beyond having an inspection, it’s important to do chimney maintenance at least annually to be certain the chimney is safe to use. Cleaning the flue of any built-up particles, creosote, and soot reduces the risk of fire. Fortunately, the cost of hiring a pro to do a chimney inspection often includes a chimney cleaning, so you may not have an extra expense for maintenance.
