Q: Does homeowners insurance cover rotting wood?

• <div><p>Most homeowners insurance policies won&rsquo;t pay for the removal of dead, rotting trees. That&rsquo;s because insurance is intended to protect you from sudden, unexpected accidents. So if a tree is sick, dying, neglected, or rotten but is still standing and hasn&rsquo;t caused any property damage, it&rsquo;s unlikely your insurance will cover the cost to have it removed. </p></div>

Q: Can you stop wood rot once it starts?

• <div><p>You can stop wood rot in its early stages by fixing the moisture problem that led to it, treating the wood with a fungicide, filling weak spots with an epoxy wood filler, and sealing the wood against future moisture. Depending on the extent of the damage, already rotted wood may need to be replaced if it&rsquo;s no longer structurally sound.</p></div>

Q: Does wood filler harden?

• <div><p>The raw materials inside wood filler work as a binding agent that, once dry, stays hard and helps reinforce wood. It's a great way to help older lumber maintain its integrity and strength if you're looking to, say, build a new piece of furniture from old or repurposed wood.</p></div>

Q: Should I hire a professional to fix my gutters?

• <div><p>Outside of regular maintenance, most gutter repairs are best left to the pros. Most gutter projects require basic ladder safety and (sometimes) getting on top of your roof. Without the proper equipment (or if you generally get a little nervous with heights), you could put yourself at risk of serious injury. On top of that, improperly repaired gutters could result in longer term damage that requires a full replacement.</p></div>

Now this what I call First Class . Great customer service, great follow thru and the owner went above and beyond. If I could rated them higher than the highest mark available I would have in every single aspect. Don't even consider hiring another company. Feel free to call me.

Outstanding service all the way around. When Jonathan was finished with the carpet cleaning, the heavily soiled foot traffic areas were just as clean as the rest of the carpet. This company is very easy to work with and performs quality work. I highly recommend Pro Care Cleaning.

We were very happy with the results. The work really transformed the appearance of our home interior. Dates for work were agreed upon and kept. Phone calls were always returned promptly. This company will probably not be the cheapest, but it will be one of the best groups with which to work....
