"Allied Roofing came out to inspect my roof within 48 hours of request. Agents/Staff/Crew were extremely professional and easy to work with. The work was performed quickly and I am very pleased with the end result. Prices were very reasonable and I will definitely use them again for any future roofing repairs."
"Floors Sag or Shake was one of three estimates we got to reinforce the sagging floors in four rooms of our older home. We went with them based on the work they proposed and their positive online reviews, and we are completely satisfied with their work. They worked over three days to pour concrete footings, jack up the floors as best as possible, and then add permanent supports. They also removed an old vapor barrier and installed a new one. Each day, they arrived early and worked through the day. They communicated well and were courteous and professional. Prior to their work, our floors were not even close to level. More importantly, when walking on them, we could feel them "giving" under our weight. Now, our floors feel solid and look level throughout the house. While this type of work isn't as "fun" as other renovations, the cost of this repair is worth the peace of mind. Every time we walk across our floors, we are reminded of our investment. We also feel good about the transferable warranty—should we ever sell our home, a prospective home owner will have a good indicator that we invested in keeping this home safe and stable. Thanks, Floors Sag or Shake!"
"Tech that arrived was lousy. Came out of truck complaining about a back ache, blamed my AC issues on old windows. Never looked in the attic. Ended up hiring a company out of pocket who did a thorough inspection and made sensible recommendations."

"Terrific job. I originally selected this company for a quote because one of my neighbors had a great looking roof put on and told me about them. I also checked them out here on Angie's List and found excellent reports. Mr. Strahan gave me a good and accurate estimate. They removed my old roof, put on 15# felt, installed drip edge all around and on the dormers, put on new architect shingles, replaced the old pipe jacks with new ones, painted all the jacks and any visible flashing to match, installed new screens on my gutters, and all came with a great warranty. They even did extra items I needed done, small repairs, at little or no charge. The employees on the job were polite, friendly and hard workers. There was no damage done to my shrubs or yard. The cleanup was fantastic; you wouldn't know they had been there except for the great looking roof. He and his office personnel were very responsive to all my questions. And I called a lot before the job with many questions. They are extremely knowledgeable about their trade and obviously have a lot of satisfied customers by the number of good reports here. "
"Considering the unpleasantness and frustration of the situation and the amount of work which needed to be performed, Florida Mold Assessment did their best to streamline the process, constantly reassuring me along the way that my home could and would be returned to its pre-mold state. They were available 24/7, and always responded to my texts, emails and phone calls in a timely manner. I was never made to feel as if I was putting them out. FMA did their best to accommodate my work schedule, so delays could be kept to a minimum. They showed up when scheduled and if they were not able to meet a scheduled appointment, they would call to notify me. The FMA crew who worked on my home were professional, reliable and trustworthy, as I felt comfortable leaving them alone in my house when the need arose. As a result of their diligence, I can happily say my home is back to normal and mold free. I would, without any hesitation or reservation recommend Florida Mold Assessment."
No, homeowners insurance typically does not cover the cost of removing a dead, sick, or rotting tree that is still standing. Insurance is designed to protect against sudden and unexpected accidents, whereas a tree dying or rotting over time is considered a maintenance issue. Coverage usually only applies after a tree has fallen and caused damage to your property.
Yes, in most cases, you can back out of your offer if you’re unsatisfied with something in the inspection. However, there is usually no recourse for doing so. The only exception would be if you waived the home inspection, a somewhat common practice to get your offer accepted in a highly competitive market. Waiving the home inspection doesn’t prevent you from getting an inspection, but you usually can’t walk away from the home after the inspection if there’s something wrong.

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually, though an inspection every two years may be sufficient for newer homes. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, water quality (such as hardness), and any previous plumbing issues. More frequent checks are advisable for older homes or those with a history of problems. Additionally, if your property has mature trees with extensive root systems, more frequent inspections are beneficial as roots can crack sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and can include checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to prolong the life of your plumbing system.
The telltale signs that your home is ready for repointing include visibly damaged bricks, crumbling bricks, flaking bricks, loose mortar, cracked mortar, gaps between brick and mortar, leaking inside your home, and visible water damage. Consider repointing when going over brick house pros and cons if you're buying a new home. Repointing is also a good idea if you plan to paint, acid wash, or stain your brick home, as it will give you a good base for coloration and prevent repairs after the work is done.
