"I had a special so paid about $150.  They were prompt and the young man was very polite.  He explained what he was doing and what he did.  The carpet cleaning was average, but I don't think it was outstanding partly because of my carpet and partly because of them."

"It went great! They were very quick to respond and get me on the schedule. Before the repair, they showed care and concern for my home by going above and beyond in preventative work. At no cost, he put a tarp over my roof to prevent leaking when a storm was coming. He also was very communicative with my insurance company to ensure the job was done in full and correctly. I would highly recommend him."

"Service provider arrived on time to my residence. Carpet tech was very professional and asked if I had any high traffic areas that required pretreatment. Tech pre-treated all areas of concern and went over pre-treated areas twice with the carpet machine. I have a lot of carpeted areas in my home and have used several big commercial companies in the past to clean my carpet and to be honest this was the BEST carpet cleaning company that I have used. My carpet looks like new and all areas cleaned dried within a day. This company employs skilled carpet techs that are professional, knowledgable, and provide excellent customer service. D&R Services will continue to get my business for any future carpet cleaning needs I may have in the future."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"I have been researching solar panels for quite some time, about a year before making a final decision to go with Sunpro Solar.  Although I met with several companies, I did not totally rely on what was presented to me.  I did my own extensive research on everything from the companies themselves to the individual components of the solar panels, inverters, productivity, quality, the manufacturers, etc.  I decided to go with Sunpro Solar for many reasons, but primarily because of the quality of the products they offered, the stability and professionalism of their company, and the longevity of their warranty.  My sales rep was Wayne, and i found him to be extremely credible and honest.  Everything went just the way he said it would and that's rare in today's business climate.  They could not install my panels on the initial day due to rain, but pushed it back two days to that Sunday.  They arrived on time and layed out the panels just as it was presented to me.  Everything went very well and there was no debris left at my home when they were finished.  I am very pleased with the look on the panels and their service thus far.  My net meter just got installed a couple of days ago, January 6th.  So it's too soon to address the output of the panels, but as far as the company is concerned, Sunpro Solar did a great job and I would highly recommend them.  They made the process very easy and took the stress out of it totally for me.  That's a big plus for me since I am so detailed and research oriented.

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

While a hygrometer is the most accurate tool for measuring humidity, you can gauge the levels in your home using simpler methods that provide rough estimations. One way is to observe physical clues. Signs of high humidity include mold growth, condensation on windows, or feeling sticky and clammy indoors. Conversely, dry skin or dry furniture can indicate that the humidity is too low. You can also try DIY tests, such as the ice cube test, using two different thermometers, or the “hair method,” which involves placing a few strands of human hair in a closed container with salt for several hours—if the hair becomes limp, humidity is likely high.

If you are considering buying a home with a cesspool, you will need to weigh the potential costs and hassles. Your primary decision will be whether to maintain the existing system or replace it. Maintaining a cesspool involves ongoing expenses for services like aeration, pumping, and cleaning. Alternatively, you could dismantle the system and replace it with a modern septic tank or connect to a public sewage line, which involves significant upfront costs. It is also crucial to check local and state regulations, as some jurisdictions require that cesspools be replaced before a home can be sold. Ultimately, you must decide for yourself if the financial investment and effort are worth it for the property in question.

Home HVAC inspection costs vary widely from state to state. These different cost factors are due to geographic locations and cost of living. States with a lower cost of living are likely to have lower inspection costs compared with high-cost-of-living states. HVAC inspection costs can also vary within a state. If a technician has to travel a long distance to reach your home, you can expect to pay more for your inspection.

Structural engineers can perform various inspections on different structures in your home. These inspections usually include a report detailing the engineer’s findings and recommendations for repairs so you can determine your next course of action for repairs, replacements, or new builds. Some of the most common structural engineering reports include:

  • Full home inspection: $350–$1,000

  • Foundation: $300–$800

  • Load-bearing walls: $300–$1,000

  • Roof: $150–$600

  • Chimney: $200–$500
