"Chris was an angel. He returned my call very quickly and was able to squeeze in a window A/C installation that he normally doesn’t do amongst two other jobs on a holiday weekend. Chris went to a rough part of town and helped my cousin who is disabled. He was kind, courteous, and went out of his way in a heat wave to help. He makes it easier for myself, my grandma, and my aunt to sleep knowing that my disabled cousin with epilepsy will be in a cooler apartment. It’s the little things and going out of his way to make it happen. 1000% recommend!"
"Mike Connor is excellent at what he does. We hired him to build a deck. I just love the work he did on the deck. It is beautiful. Mike is a very nice man. The people who worked with him were very good. His helper Morgan she is going to be very good at what ever she does. She is learning from the best I feel. Thank you Mike Connor for the Beautiful deck."
"Wow! Called me 10 minutes after I posted busted water pipe inside the wall. Onsite within 2 hrs. Both Randy & Chris came. Randy talked us through everything needed. Chris didnt talk so much but got right to work and finished quickly. Chris gave us tips for maintenance we could do to prevent a future call for this issue. Will definitely call this company for future needs."
"We needed new gutter guards installed on our shed. Jesse thoroughly cleaned the gutters and professionally installed the new guards. The gutters were approximately 20 feet above ground level, and Jesse completed the work safely and efficiently. He arrived exactly as scheduled and worked diligently until the job was fully completed. We were very pleased with his workmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail."
"our handyman installer was very customer service oriented, friendly and easy to work with. he did the whole project uninstalling and installing the microwave over-the-range appliance in less than an hour (40-45 min). I really appreciated that Mr. Handyman offered the haul-away service of the old appliance that the other home handyman services I was considering did not. overall, it was excellent--a professional and efficient home installation service. the cost was also comparable with what Home Depot was charging. I will definitely keep Mr. Handyman in mind for any upcoming home projects we may need."
"I hired them for multiple projects many different times. Always on time and reliable service. They work clean and always had the job done. Highly recommended."
"Dave Aaronson is a quality pro who knows his stuff. He installed the front door and storm door and the fire door and the back door. He was so friendly and helpful. He was on time and finished in a timely fashion and he cleaned up after himself. I hope to hire him again."
"Gino @ Redline did several repair and upkeep jobs for us, including installing a new kitchen faucet, replacing the ballcock in the toilet tank, installing a new door knob, among other help. He was professional, reliable, courteous, got the jobs done. He even went above and beyond when we had issues with a fridge install (different company): he came back free of charge to help us move our heavy kitchen island to make space for moving the fridge. We offered a tip, but he declined that, too. To top it off, he told us to call him when it's time to move the island back. I highly recommend him."
Fire Pit Installation questions, answered by experts
One of the best ways to know your chimney is good to go on any given night is to simply look up into your flue with a flashlight. If you see a thick buildup of creosote—a shiny, dark substance that looks like tar—it’s best to have your fireplace professionally cleaned before you go ahead with the burn. Additionally, having your fireplace professionally inspected once per year can also help increase your peace of mind and keep your family and your home safe.
The primary disadvantage of a ventless fireplace is that it doesn’t have an exterior venting system. This means that the byproducts from combustion are emitted into your home, which raises some safety concerns. In addition, ventless gas fireplaces produce moisture as they burn—and if there’s no ventilation, you could end up with a mold problem.
They provide early warning, minimize property damage, and ensure safety during fire emergencies.
Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.
No. Removing the cause of concern will only lead to deeper concern. You cannot use any fire-powered appliance like a fireplace or furnace without an escape route for the smoke and fumes. If you remove the flue intending to repair or replace it, you should only use the fireplace, wood stove, or furnace once the flue is in working order. If you cannot replace the flue you have removed, call a chimney repair professional immediately.
