"We were VERY pleased with the work and the service of PuroClean. I highly recommend them. We were impressed with their professionalism from start the finish. Their estimate was the lowest one but I can honestly say that wasn't the only reason we chose them. We were so happy with the service and overall value that we already got the ball rolling on another project with them."

"Matt, Alex, and crew did an excellent job removing an old refrigerator and miscellaneous junk from a condominium in Akron. They're based near Cleveland and had no problem traveling 45 minutes south to the location. They did a beautiful job, including removing a large refrigerator through a patio door (they had to take the doors off) and the old water heater and furnace. They cleared out the garage quickly and swept up afterwards. Not only is the junk gone, the garage is cleaner than it was when they started! I highly recommend this company. Their prices are very reasonable, too."

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

"They replaced my roof, gutters, and siding from the wind storm this spring. Jack was my sales rep and he was great on informing me on how everything works.  The crews were very respectful and professional and did an excellent job.  I recommend them to everyone who needs roof work done."

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

First, you can expect the project to be loud. If you have pets, you might want to take them to a friend's house during the day so they are not disturbed by any of the loud noises. In addition, you’ll need to provide the retrofit team access to areas of the house that will need to be worked on, meaning you’ll need to relocate personal items, clear clutter, and make pathways for the crew. Once the project is complete, a local building inspector will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the retrofitting is up to code.

Grounding is a great first step to prevent electrical shock, but you can take it further with GFCI outlets and AFCIs (arc fault circuit interrupters). In particular, AFCIs help protect against the type of electrical arcs that cause fires, like if a mouse chews on a wire or your laptop starts overheating at the wall. These are required in some areas of your home.

A home with proper earthquake retrofitting can sustain minimal damage in earthquakes of up to 7.0 magnitude, although risks are higher based on how close and deep the earthquake is. A home closer to the earthquake epicenter will sustain greater damage, especially if the earthquake is closer to the surface of the Earth, but retrofitting can help minimize the risk of injuries.

Even if you invested in the cost of a gas shut-off valve for your oven and other appliances, it’s a good idea to add a seismic shut-off valve as an extra safety measure. 

Gas shut-off valves for appliances are manual, meaning someone has to cut off the flow of gas. This leaves room for error, as you might not be home or might be too distracted to think about gas lines during an earthquake. An earthquake valve is automatic and will protect your home from gas-related disasters in the event of an earthquake.

The average cost for an earthquake retrofit is between $3,500 and $8,700, though the full range can be anywhere from $500 to $15,000 or more. Costs vary significantly depending on your home's foundation, type, and the specific retrofitting method used. For a slab foundation, you can expect to pay on the lower end, between $500 and $3,000, while a wooden foundation can cost $5,000 to $10,000. Retrofitting a hillside home typically costs between $5,000 and $12,000 or more. A soft-story home, such as one with rooms over a garage, is the most expensive, with costs ranging from $10,000 to $80,000. It is advisable to get multiple estimates to compare services and pricing.
