"After an extensive process of having different contractors evaluate my home & submit their estimates for the installation of a Bosch tankless boiler/water heater combination unit as well as new baseboard heating, I selected AStar Heating & Cooling. Their staff impressed me from start to finish. Initially, I met Aaron who provided a thorough explanation of how the work would be done, offered other options that I did not know of or considered at the time, and provided a fair estimate that was similar to most of the other contractors. Next, when the time came for the projects to be completed, the technicians, Robert & Trevor, were on point. They always arrived in a timely manner & started working right away. They worked efficiently & quickly to get the projects done in the time frame promised. However, they did not rush, they took pride in their work & made every effort to make sure the work was completed neatly & done properly, as they thoroughly tested out the systems to make sure their were no issues/problems in their setup & performance. They also thoroughly answered my questions about the installation of the new systems as they went about their work. At the end of each workday, they made sure to clean up the job site & were very mindful in not dirtying my new floors by wearing plastic booties whenever they had to walk over them. The Bosch tankless water heater/boiler combination unit has been working without a hitch. I barely notice the difference in the time lag of receiving hot water in comparison to the old 40 gallon tank water heater I previously used. Overall, I highly recommend AStar Heating & Cooling. High quality work done high quality professionals. All of them put my mind at ease on what was a very necessary home improvement project."

"I took a chance on Thermo Impact because of bad experiences with other companies. Great service (ask for Jay), good understanding of solar repair needs (Jeff came out), and very fair pricing. My 30 year old system now has an air bleeder valve, new circulator, and the PSI needle now has a wiggle that shows fluid movement that it never did before. I am waiting for a full sun day for maximum heating but with two days of very little sun mixed with showers, I hit 90 degree water both times. Call them for service or upgrades (I eventually will)."

"I found Serg & My Town Handyman after doing a handyman search on Angie's List.com. It turns out he is so much more than just a handyman. 

A few months earlier a pipe burst behind a wall in my finished basement due to the extreme cold temps. The water had been flowing for hours by the time I came home to shut off the main water valve. The walls & carpeting were ruined.  The next morning the plumber cut into the walls & ceiling to correct the broken pipe.

I called My Town Handyman, LLC after reading positive reviews. Serg called me back at 7:45pm and said he was finishing a job in my area & he could be at my home by 9:00pm that same evening. THAT was a pleasant surprise & I took him up on the offer.

Serg reviewed the damaged & quoted the job on the spot.  Serg said it would be a 3-day job. We set the start date for the job. All I had to do was select my paint colors & tell Serg on the start date. Serg & his guys Nick & Alex showed up on time & got to work immediately.  The 1st thing they did was put up a plastic barrier to keep sheet rock dust from flying into the other rooms. I was impressed that they worked on my basement through the entire day.  They worked from 9:00am to 6:30pm each day as quoted. All three of the guys were completely self-sufficient. They knew exactly what to do. They had a plan of action & stuck to it. No one had to come to me with questions.

Before they left after each day's work, they cleaned up & organized their equipment so my basement was still usable.

My Town Handyman replaced insulation & sheet rock walls, replaced all of the molding & painted the entire room in the colors I selected.

Serg also added an access panel in my ceiling enabling me to easily turn off the water for that room only in case of another broken pipe. The access panel is spring loaded and blends in with the ceiling so well that you don't even notice it.

Serg & his guys did a perfect job. I am so happy with their work. They finished the job within the time frame promised and within budget.

My basement is beautiful. I will definitely use Serg & My Town Handyman, LLC again & I highly recommend them to you."

"The last was a rental company that we have and we used them for an air conditioning and heating system. It was Bototach Mechanical. It’s been a good program for us. They’re very responsive. I don’t know what the thought process was. My husband said, well let’s try these guys and so we did. We have an older home and it’s proved to be a very good deal. The quality has been pretty good, so I would give them an A for the quality. I will give you one helpful hint though. If the company decides they want to replace an appliance, you need to call them and negotiate with them because you can upgrade, but you need to talk to them in person not just do it over the internet."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It’s even better if sunlight reaches panels between the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is enough to power a home, depending on your solar system’s size and energy needs. Remember that panels will generate some power under cloudy skies or in the shade, and many systems compensate for lower sun exposure by drawing energy from the grid or battery storage.

Professionals use the same methods to install solar shingles that they do for asphalt shingles, so you’ll often see a similar installation timeline of one to two days. The amount of time required will depend on the size and slope of your roof and the number of shingles installed. Weather conditions can delay installation, as working on a roof is unsafe during high winds or heavy rain.

The best solar panels to withstand hail are those rated UL 61730. These solar panels are certified to withstand hailstones up to 3 inches in diameter and travel at speeds up to 88 mph. IP68 solar panels are the next most resilient solar panel. Solar panels without these ratings can handle hail up to 1 inch in diameter that travels up to 50 miles per hour. If you live in an area with frequent or severe hailstorms, purchasing UL 61730 solar panels is often worth the investment.

As long as your solar panels are properly installed without damage to your roof, they will not shorten the roof’s life span. Solar panels can act as a cover or barrier to your roof and help block external elements, such as debris, heat, and UV rays. Reduced exposure to the weather can extend your roof’s life.
