"Seemed eager to start and easy to work with in the beginning. Office customer service is a bit rough around the edges. Sends text we need payment with no ?hey hope your project is going well? same with final payment ?thanks for choosing us? Communication is very lacking on several levels. Until it wasn?t?meaning a gave final payment of $16,000. And there is a very short punch list. I asked John why these items weren?t done and I was hesitant to give final payment. He said and he took photos to document ?I promise we will get on this next week?you can trust me and give me check? Yes I?m guilty of trusting and should have held check. I have text several times to 4 different employees and owners as well made calls and left messages?.crickets. So now I have a $35,000.

"Lesson learned. Always get an estimate. BEFORE the work is done. At least a digital copy. Arrangements for the project were made, with some one named Lynn, for the company to send someone to complete the work. We were quoted over the phone 4500-5000 which included a mold test. A sub contractor with an entirely different company (National Mold Company) was sent. When the contractor arrived, he stated that the job would be much more simpler than first thought. This led us to believe that the job would cost less, no. All said and done, they charged $5500. All said and done, it's almost like no work was done. The stains and the smell are still there. Only one actual board was taken upon the attic room. The ceiling in the bedroom was primed and painted but are still visible and have a funky smell. At this point I'm going to. Do what we should have done; Do the job ourselves. Just now with $5500 less dollars in our pockets. A detailed receipt was not given even though it was requested."

"The job went very well. They are locally owned and operated, not a franchise. The team was professional and friendly. They were very efficient and did all of the work as promised and in the frame they estimated. The owner supervised and worked on the more difficult parts of the job (upholstery and marble grout). They removed most of twenty years worth of grime from the arm chairs and ottomans. The oriental rug came back with the vibrant colors restored and sealed with a protective coat. They were not the least expensive alternative but the end results made me happy that I opted for quality over price. I would definitely use their services again."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Solar panels that haven’t been properly inspected and maintained pose several risks to homeowners. Firstly, a dirty, obstructed, or malfunctioning solar panel won’t be able to generate as much power, which could lead to power shortages and wasted money. But more importantly, neglected solar panel arrays can become dangerous if left for too long. Corroded wires and exposed circuitry are fire hazards, so it’s strongly recommended to keep up with regular maintenance to protect your home.

Burning a single palm tree stump, if you’re careful, is technically doable DIY. However, you should always take precautions to control the fire and do research if you’re burning multiple types of trees. 

Some trees, such as ornamental trees, black cherry, and some oak trees, release toxins into the air when burned that can be irritating to your lungs (or even dangerous) to breathe in.

DIY restoration for small areas is possible with proper safety gear and equipment, though comprehensive damage benefits from professional restoration.

Yes, mineral spirits are flammable and may spontaneously combust at temperatures of 200 degrees F or more.
