"We contracted with Precise to do both our exterior paint, and a couple of interior rooms including some wall & ceiling repair. We couldn't be more pleased with the results. Absolutely superb color matching. The actual painting process was reasonable; the crew was attentive to our needs even while one of us was working from home. There was some dirt & dust & paint, but a lot less than we expected, and the crew did a good job cleaning up after themselves. Jonathan told us beforehand that a deep clean after the job was over would be beneficial, and we have one scheduled that should take care of it. Even during the post job walkthru, Jonathan was finding minor issues we never saw, and was getting them fixed."

"The French drain did it! It fixed a drainage problem I had next to my foundation. I didn’t leave a review until we had a heavy rain, to see if it was going to work, but I was very happy. I no longer have to deal with this issue. John and his helper did an excellent job. Very neat and attentive to detail. Thank you! The price was reasonable and the work was done in one day. Would highly recommend! And will have them back for more work later."

"I was looking for a good job at a reasonable price.  Airco diagnosed the problem for a fixed fee but their estimated cost to fix was 1000's (literally) more than the amount charged by the person I ultimately hired to do the job.    Airco claimed that their proposal provided higher quality materials---which is probably true.  But I could not afford to pay for their projected cost.  This was not for my home; it was for a garage apartment occupied by my elderly mother's tenant.  Airco's  projected cost was equal to rent for the garage apartment for  more than a year.  Neither practical nor possible. 



I will say that the diagnostician and later the estimator showed up as scheduled and on time.  They were also professional in their discussions. 



If you are looking for the highest quality for a permanent fix for your home Airco may be the place to go.  If you are on a tight budget or, for whatever reason, are unable to justify buying the highest quality option, calling Airco will cost you a fixed diagnostic fee which is money that could go toward paying another provider for a more affordable option.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Yes, the air from a damp basement can travel up into your living area through a process called the stack effect, so moisture, mold spores, and other debris in your basement air can all decrease your indoor air quality on your main floors. Additionally, damp basements can promote the rotting of building materials, which can damage flooring, insulation, and framing on your first floor in addition to materials in the basement.

Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.

While a standard gutter system is widely considered the most effective way to prevent water damage to your home's foundation, several alternatives are available. These options can be used on their own in certain climates or as supplementary protection.

Common alternatives include:

  • Rain Chains: These are decorative chains that hang from the roof's edge, guiding rainwater to the ground.

  • Drip Edges: These metal strips are installed at the edge of the roof to direct water away from the fascia. While often used with gutters, they can be paired with a ground-level solution but are typically not sufficient on their own.

  • Rain Dispersal Systems: These systems work by breaking up the heavy sheet of water flowing off the roof, dispersing it over a wider area.

  • French Drains: This ground-level system uses a perforated pipe in a gravel-filled trench to collect and redirect water runoff away from the house.

  • Drip Paths: Placed directly below the roofline, these paths made of concrete, stone, or other materials prevent soil erosion and guide water away.

It's important to note that some alternatives like rain chains and dispersal systems may not be adequate in regions with heavy rainfall because they don't divert water away from the foundation as effectively as a full gutter system. Ground-based solutions like French drains can be very effective but are often more expensive and can affect your landscaping and curb appeal. Many experts recommend installing a full gutter system for maximum protection and using alternatives as supplementary measures.

A vapor barrier can last over 20 years, but they are vulnerable to pests, flooding, and other natural disasters. If your home weathers a storm or is treated for any pest infestation, make sure to have a drywall pro come check the integrity of your vapor barrier. It’s also important to have a pro install a vapor barrier since improper installation can lead to tears or leaks in the barrier that shorten its lifespan.

Some basement waterproofing methods can actually cause your water or moisture problems to get worse, which is why it’s so important to call in a professional who knows how to solve your underlying issue and use the appropriate waterproofing methods. An example of this would be applying latex waterproofing paint to the insides of your basement walls without fixing the water issue outside. Doing so can trap moisture in the basement walls, which can promote mold growth, peeling paint, and even damaged concrete. However, when done by a professional, the only downside to basement waterproofing is the up-front cost.
