"NE heating and cooling by far the best experience I have had with any contractor for repairs. Pepe and his crew were very knowledgeable about installing new furnace unit. There work was very clean and very fast. They were the only company that was willing to get things done right away. During the coldest day of the year when we had a deep freeze Pepe showed up ready to make things happen. There prices are very reasonable and the dedication to making sure things work right was on point. I definitely would hire this company again. I recommend this company for any heating/cooling needs."

"I have never worked with a contractor so dedicated to excellence and customer service. Victor built a gorgeous trex deck that is just extraordinary. The workmanship is above and beyond anyone we have ever worked with. We plan on doing many more improvements on our home simply because Victor and his team are superb. His pool of talent is amazing. We will start more projects including a fountain in our courtyard, and additional Diamond finish plaster in our living room."

"I originally hired Casa de Avila to pour a concrete patio. Along with this I mentioned to Gil I wanted to build my patio. He helped with wood and on his own time helped with the removal of the old patio. His attention to detail and timeliness are to be commended in this time. I will use his Company for all my future renovations on my house. I recommend h and his company to anyone looking for residential work."

"Excellent. I've never found anybody that knows as much as he does about plumbing, electrical and HVAC. He's just absolutely wonderful. I would not use anybody else. He knows and explains things. He's a bit cheaper on some of the main plumbers."

"During the demolition of my burned out residence they found a box of pictures and they rescued them for me and put them on a safe place. Also they discovered a bee hive during the removal and contacted someone to come remove the hive. I can't recommend them highly enough. It was a pleasure doing business with them"

"I had Strong Built install a refrigeration ac & furnace unit in my home on April 6 & 7, 2023. The Strong Built team consisted of: Manny GM, Chris Barr install manager, Nick & Alex install team, Chris Sinseneros & Felix aeroseal team and Marcos & Chris Dominguez electrical. Although, I have had a lot of bad/negative experiences in hiring and dealing with contractors, that is what I expected more of when I hired Strong Built to install my refrigerated ac unit. Needless to say, Strong Built proved me wrong. Strong Built employees made me feel very comfortable dealing with them, encouraging me to ask questions (of which I asked a lot of questions). Any requests that I made of them, sometimes I asked more than once to pay attention to a certain request, I was responded to with politeness and respect. Never did I get the impression that they were doing me a favor by servicing my requests. All of Strong Built's employees were very pleasant to deal with & their professional quality is hard to match. I am very thankful and appreciative Strong Built is a quality company of which I would do business with again &/or refer their services to other people I may know. I am also highly thankful for the hard work and dedication that Chris Sinseneros & Felix's efforts in performing the aeroseal work on my duct system. I know it was very frustrating and time consuming in dealing with my ducting, sealing all of the leaks (going above and beyond in their duties) to make sure my duct system was properly aerosealed. I am very thankful for Strong Built for providing me quality and professionalism beyond reproach. And that each of their employees conducted themselves in a very nice, polite & professional manner. Thank you again for having professional employees and doing the quality work that every company should have when working on a customers job and for giving me 'THAT FIVE STAR EXPERIENCE'."

"

Paid for this through Angie's List and forgot about it.  I've gotten spoiled by providers contacting me and this business never did. 

So the upshot is that the company might be fine, but the downside is that I paid for services I never received.

Honestly, I wasn't going to write a review at all except for the annoying popup thing that keeps asking about my experience.

So I'd go for other people's reviews to get a more realistic sense of what this company's about.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.
