"Very glad I did it. I need a new furnace. There's a lot wrong with it. Found out it's almost 15 years old and could die during winter. The tech will get me prices on different ones and will go from there."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Solar batteries can be a great investment to help maximize your solar savings and make your system and home more valuable, but they’re most beneficial to customers who don’t have access to net metering. If your state or energy provider doesn’t provide net metering, batteries can be a great way to offset consumption even when your panels aren’t producing power. They also come with the added benefit of providing electricity through blackouts, so they’re valuable in areas prone to severe weather that could cause frequent blackouts. Your installer can help you decide if batteries are worthwhile.

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.

There are a few great questions to ask a solar contractor or inspector when you speak to them. You’ll probably want to find out about the energy yield and efficiency of your array, ensuring the actual output matches the amount you calculated when installing the array in the first place. It’s also a good idea to find out about any damage or wear and tear on the array and to inquire about how soon you need to make repairs or replacements to essential components.

You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.

In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.
