"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 was very impressed with the installer who was sent. He mounted the dish without drilling through my new roof, which might have voided my roof warranty, Also, he mounted the dish in a location where it is easy for me to brush the snow off it in winter. I appreciate his knowledge and thoughtfulness. Also, they didn't charge me to re-install the dish."

"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

A few disadvantages of installing solar panels on your roof include the high up-front costs and the potential for increased property taxes. Installing solar panels can increase the home’s value, which in turn can mean higher taxes. Depending on your area, you should check with your local tax offices for more information. Another potential pitfall is roof leaks from a poor installation, but this shouldn’t be an issue if you hire a reputable company.

You can start narrowing your search for a reputable solar company by finding local, regional, and national companies that service your area and maintain positive reviews online. You should also check the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to see if the company has complaints filed against them. Next, contact the remaining candidates and ask about installation timelines, warranty coverage, and financing options. Choose a company that offers a labor warranty that lasts at least 10 years and prioritizes cash purchases and solar loans.

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.

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.

The time it takes to install solar panels depends on the number of panels and the size of your home, but installation takes between two and three days of work. While most contractors can install the panels over the course of a couple of days, switching to solar energy can take two to three months in total. This includes the time it takes to design the system, procure the parts, obtain the permits, install the panels, connect to the main power grid, and get an inspection.
