"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.

"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."
Look for goose repellents that contain the ingredient methyl anthranilate. This is a natural chemical found in grape juice. In human food, it’s often used as grape flavoring. With geese, it’s highly irritating. Grape Kool-Aid contains methyl anthranilate, the active ingredient in most bird repellents. It won’t harm geese, but it will deter them.
Whether dryer sheets can keep squirrels away is a bit of a mystery because the evidence is entirely anecdotal. Many households claim to have success with using dryer sheets for keeping squirrels away by placing them throughout their attics, yards, on a clothesline, and any other area where squirrels like to run through. Squirrels do not like strong scents, so if you try using dryer sheets, the ones with the strongest scent may be the most effective.
Moles live underground and feed on insects. They dig and move through tunnels, usually in meadows or forests but sometimes in lawns and gardens. They are about 6 inches long with large claws, tiny eyes, and hidden ears.
Shrews do not dig their own tunnels but will use other animals’ tunnels, and are about 3 to 4 inches long. They look similar to mice and feed on insects.
Voles are similar in size to moles but have large eyes and small but visible ears. Rather than eating insects, voles are herbivores that prefer seeds, grasses, and plant roots.
Yes, badgers can benefit the environments they live in. As they dig and feed, they carry and disperse seeds, which helps plants spread and grow. They also build tunnels that other species, like rabbits and foxes, can move into. However, these benefits may not be desirable on your property, and badger removal may be preferable.
Proactive measures like sealing entry points and regular maintenance treatments help keep your home pest-free.
