"When an uninvited squirrel guest made itself at home in my house, l turned to Barnes Wildlife Control for help. Their expertise in animal and pest control was evident from the start. They promptly identified potential entry points for the rodent and provided a reasonably priced quote for the necessary repairs. What stood out to me was the service representative, Omar, who conducted a thorough examination of my home. His attention to detail and professionalism were commendable. On the day of the repair, Omar courteously gave me a heads-up about their arrival time, which I greatly appreciated. The team at Barnes Wildlife Control not only fixed the issue but also ensured that I was completely satisfied with their work.

Protecting homes and businesses since 1950, Guardian Protection is one of the nation's largest and most highly regarded security companies. We provide smart technology, 24/7 professional monitoring, and peace of mind to hundreds of thousands of customers. Our products are installed by experts, monitored by real people, and truly make a difference. We do what we do because of one simple truth: life is better when it's safe.

"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

I'm talking about a toilet repair mind you! $1375 for them to replace my toilet altogether. $591 to install a toilet that I purchase. Or 721 to rebuild the current toilet. I settled for paying $89 for those options I suppose so Free Estimate as advertised isn't correct! I'm an Army War Veteran and I refuse to be ripped off by companies like this one.

Insulation questions, answered by experts

At a minimum, blown-in insulation lasts 20 to 30 years. Cellulose and sheep’s wool come from natural materials, so they likely max out at around 30 years. Fiberglass and rockwool feature artificial materials that boast lengthy lifespans, up to 50 years, or even longer in some cases. As always, this timeline assumes you don’t run into any issues, such as flooding or mold, that shorten the lifespan.

Yes, insulating your pipes can reduce plumbing noises because it dampens vibrations and reduces the transmission of sound, making your home a quieter place. So if you've ever been annoyed by the sounds of water rushing through your pipes or the clanging noises when someone turns on the faucet, insulation can help.

Opting for insulated ducts can lead to significant long-term savings on your energy bills and contribute to a more efficient HVAC system. The precise amount you can save depends on various factors, including your climate, usage patterns, and the insulation's quality. However, on average, insulated ducts can result in savings of up to 20% on your annual heating and cooling costs, according to ENERGY STAR®.

Yes, cladding can help insulate your home by adding an additional layer to the exterior walls, which can minimize heat loss and enhance energy efficiency. However, it's essential to select cladding materials that include insulation for optimal results, as cladding without built-in insulation won't make nearly as much of a difference.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.
