"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."
"Our 17 year old central air conditioning went out at the start of a heat wave. I called Arctic Fire on a Sunday morning. Alex returned my call that afternoon and came out the next day around noon and quickly diagnosed the problem and had our old unit running in about half an hour. In conversation with Alex I discussed the possibility of replacing my 17 year old unit which had been a problem with 3 previous service calls in the last year. Within a day he sent me an estimate which was very competitive and reasonable. Within 2 weeks he replaced both my compressor and air handler in a very hot attic. His team was very professional and completed the job in about 5 hours. Even in very hot weather his team remained focused and answered all my questions and concerns. He did not leave until everything was running and operating correctly. I would highly recommend Alex and Arctic Fire for any of your HVAC needs."

"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."

You're more likely to find a hobo spider outside rather than inside your home. If you do find one in your home, don't panic. You can remove the spider by catching it in a glass or cup and transporting it outside. You may also vacuum up the spider and remove it by emptying the vacuum bag.
If you notice more than one spider, it may be a good idea to hire a local pest control company to check out the situation and recommend a course of action.
Squirrels rely heavily on their sense of smell and are deterred by a variety of scents. Some of the most effective smells for repelling them include peppermint oil, coffee grounds, white vinegar, garlic, cinnamon, rosemary, and predator urine. They also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based sprays an effective repellent for areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a spray from garlic and vinegar and apply it daily. Additionally, squirrels dislike strong, fresh scents, so placing items like strong-smelling soaps or dryer sheets in areas they frequent can also help keep them away.
Attempting to kill a black widow spider can pose a significant health risk. When these arachnids feel threatened, they are more likely to attack, increasing your chances of getting bit. It's better to trap the spider and release it from a location far away from your residence.
There’s no denying the striking resemblance, but squash bugs are different from the brown marmorated stink bug. While both are shield-shaped and emit a foul odor when crushed, they belong to different insect families and target different plants. Squash bugs primarily attack squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbits, while stink bugs have a much broader range of host plants, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Their eggs and feeding damage also differ, making proper identification key for effective pest control.
