"Juan was an expert with installing the smart thermostat. He double checked with the manufacturer about the wiring as it was different with my geothermal system. He was professional and thorough and I would definitely hire him again for a project."
"I had the attic of a rental property converted into two bedrooms which needed framing, hanging sheet rock, base board molding installed and handing doors. Tom was able to fit me into his schedule and complete the work with-in 2 weeks.
He came back quickly fixed a few misunderstandings as to what my expectations were and it looks great. I am excited about the finished project. I would contract out with him again."

"Dan and his son did a great job repairing a damaged plaster wall. The wall looks new! They also removed a wall/window AC unit and installed window, complete with beautiful new trim around the window. They had to remove siding and cut through the exterior wall of the house to enlarge the opening for the new window. The finished job looks beautiful."
"To be honest , Mark is the BEST contractor we’ve ever hired. He told us he could make our bathroom look like a “spa” and he did just that . Mark and his assistant Dave removed the tub and installed a walk in shower that is beautiful. The best part it was finished in only a week and half as promised. LOVE IT !!!!!! Thank You ."
"We moved half our family from Brooklyn to Bethlehem. They arrived early, and worked tirelessly to breakdown furniture and carefully transport all pieces down four flights of stairs. Our furniture and possessions arrived completely in tact and wrapped with care in blankets. We hadn't hired them initially to help move the other half of our family from Breinigsville to Bethlehem, but they offered when they saw how overwhelmed we were. Joe sent 4 people over, when we only asked for 2 and quickly moved all of the larger furniture pieces to the third floor of our new home. Overall, they were incredibly helpful, the movers were polite, and careful with the walls, furniture and pets. We built such a rapport with everyone that we can't wait to have them over for our housewarming. Hire them, don't look anywhere else. You won't be disappointed."
The best way to ward off roaches is to take preventative measures and stay on top of routine extermination services. Keep them away by cleaning your kitchen free from crumbs, properly storing away food, covering your pet’s food bowl, and reducing moisture in your home to make your house less tempting for roaming cockroaches. Remove clutter—especially cardboard boxes that roaches love to hide in, and replace them with plastic tubs.
Typically, fleas won’t take up residence in human hair. Their natural preference is to live on the fur of animals, but they can bite and infest humans on a temporary basis. If there is a significant flea infestation in the surrounding environment, humans may inadvertently become a host. Again, though, this is a rare occurrence.
When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.
The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.
Keep flies out of your house by keeping the windows or doors closed, especially when cooking. You can also install window screens to prevent pests from entering your home while allowing a cool breeze to enter your home.
You can get rid of raccoons quickly by making your home an undesirable place to live. Here are the best ways to get rid of raccoons fast:
Repair broken vents and screens leading to your home.
Seal open access points into your home. Many raccoons sneak in through the attic, roof, or chimney.
Trim trees and branches so raccoons don’t have easy access to your roof and chimney.
Thoroughly clean out garbage cans, remove all trash, and secure the bins.
Don’t keep food or water outside.
Add raccoon guards to outdoor bird feeders.
Clean up brush around your home—raccoons like to gather loose yard materials for bedding.
