Galina Woods and Steve worked on Saturday to correct the installation of a dehumidifier and drain pipe system in my crawl space. The system is now working. The exterior drain pipe is finally dripping water. Thanks Galina, you really knew how to correct the problem.

Installed the tint on my windows and it looks amazing. While he did have to reschedule several times and he could have said that I should find someone else, I would definitely call him back to put tint on the rest of the windows in my house. I look forward to the energy savings this year

No. Removing the cause of concern will only lead to deeper concern. You cannot use any fire-powered appliance like a fireplace or furnace without an escape route for the smoke and fumes. If you remove the flue intending to repair or replace it, you should only use the fireplace, wood stove, or furnace once the flue is in working order. If you cannot replace the flue you have removed, call a chimney repair professional immediately.

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.

One of the most common mistakes made when splicing wires is not using a wire connector. Without a wire connector, electricity flows unsheathed and can result in a home electrical fire.
