"Kyle and his team were fantastic. Not only were they affordable but built great quality deck, were transparent and made sure we were satisfied with everything. He was also very flexible to our multiple asks throughout the process. We had a unique layout as we live on a hill and Kyle went out of his way to coordinate with companies to confirm that it was safe to build (as we had some water runoff concerns). Once he did this, the deck its self exceeded our expectations and Kyle and his team were amazing to work with. I'd recommend them for any project. "

Mold Bros is a local family business, we offer something most of these big businesses cannot: personal, flexible and direct service. There is no 1-800 number to call, no call center, just direct contact with the people who will be helping you remove harmful mold from your home. Being in the northeast we know that our environment is a breeding ground for mold. With a lack of solid options, most companies offer lackluster service and unreasonable prices. We believe that taking care of our customers includes their wallets.

"They are top quality .They were wonderful, professional, timely and did a great job."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.

Baking soda is an effective fire reduction method. However, flour and baking powder are very dangerous around flames. Flour is flammable and it can also conduct electricity. The combination can cause serious injury from electrical shock and worsen the situation by adding fuel to the fire. Baking powder is also not an option as it's also highly flammable. 

Call 911 immediately. If you have a fire extinguisher or fire blanket near the laundry room, you can attempt to extinguish the fire, but don’t open or touch the dryer. If you can’t put the fire out, evacuate yourself, your family, and your pets from the house, closing the laundry room door behind you. Turn off the electricity to your home via the outside fuse box, then wait for the fire department. After a dryer fire, have your home’s electrical system inspected to make sure there isn’t any damage.

Regular HVAC filter changes, deep cleaning, and air quality monitoring help maintain a healthy environment.

Even if they look fine, carpets should be replaced after smoke damage since they can absorb smoke, soot, and water all the way into the carpet padding. Fully removing smoke, fire, and water damage from carpeting can be a complicated and time-consuming process, so replacing the carpet is a safer bet.
