Mr. Graham came right away for the check as he lives not far from me. He promised to have a crew come over as soon as they had a non-snow day. Those promises continued despite repeated calls to his office. 13 months later, with a big blue tarp over our foyer and 4 pans collecting dripping water, my AAA Insurance rep advised me to just file a claim and let the insurance company go after R Graham Construction through subrogation. Of course, now the problem is much bigger. There are large stains on the drywall and the wall must be opened up to inspect the insulation. Wet drywall and wet insulation can lead to black mold which can be a very serious health threat. I have submitted many positive reviews to Angie's List and in all my years as a member, this if the first negative review I have submitted. Mr. Graham clearly dropped the ball here and does not deserve your trust or business.

He used my shower and laundry facilities throughout without compensation. He often worked in the home as early as 6am and as late as 10pm which greatly interfered with my daily life. However, the builder did finish the project within the proposed time.Quality Issues:
The builder promised to use an expert for specialized tasks such as installing and restoring the hardwood floors. He did not and the quality of work in some areas is unacceptable. The builder erred in estimating the amount of hardwood causing the owner to "split the cost" of excess flooring. He also bought a more expensive grade and the wrong width of new flooring material without consulting owner.
Kitchen wall tiles are uneven. Never fixed
1 1/2 inch hole accidently poked in outdoor siding. Never fixed. Exterior caulking is unsightly and uneven.
Water in basement. Inadequate drainage around addition. Owner had to pay to rework the french drains, readjust downspouts and eavestroughs; install soffit vents ( building code violation not to install); external waterproofing of basement walls. Extra cost to owner to fix these problems = $10,000 to an independent contractor. Drainage problems persist where the addition joins the original house.
Builder set up work area across from new furnace main intake. The extreme amount of sawdust and debris clogged the air vents necessitating vent cleaning multiple times; 3 service calls to repair new furnace since work completed. Final walk through never completed. Builder claims all warranties of work are voided because owner was 5 days late in paying final $1000 (due to owner's hospitalization).
Final note, owner performed all the "clean-up" at the end of most work days as agreed to save on costs; i.e. sweeping up debris etc. A poor experience overall!

Humidifier Repair questions, answered by experts
Whole-house humidifiers work, but the home itself determines their efficacy. If you have a drafty house or an old home with wooden floors that leak air and moisture, the humidifier must work much harder to keep moisture levels constant. Because of this, we recommend doing an air test of your home to determine the best type of humidifier and any work that needs to be done to install it.
There are some physical signs you need to have a humidifier that manifest as signs in your home and body. For the home, Watch for cracked and peeling paint, dry wooden flooring and furniture, excessively loud creaking wooden floors or doors, and an increase in the electricity needed to cool or heat the home. Physical symptoms include frequent dry air passages, Scratchy throat, increased allergy symptoms, and dry eyes.
No, air purifiers neither cause dry air nor increase the home's humidity levels. They remove allergens and dust but don't alter the water content in indoor air. However, because some air purifiers move large volumes of air, the areas immediately surrounding a portable unit can feel cooler and dryer than the rest of the home.
Whole-house humidifiers can damage your furnace if a problem with the water supply happens. To avoid mechanical trouble, maintain your humidifier by keeping the filter clean and the drain line clear.
Whole-home humidifier maintenance needs vary depending on the type of humidifier. Generally, they require regular upkeep. This includes periodic cleaning of the unit, replacing filters or pads, and monitoring water levels to prevent black mold or bacterial growth. The frequency of maintenance tasks may range from monthly to quarterly, depending on the model and usage.
