"Three Rivers Brick Ponting & Cleaning is an EXCELLENT company! I am very pleased with their professional service. I’ve worked with them for almost 3-years regarding chimney and brick pointing. And they always give 110% performance! A few weeks ago, I noticed water was beginning to leak around the ceiling area of our chimney. The heavy rains were very unusual for the winter months. Nonetheless, I was concerned the problem would get worse if I waited until spring—so I called Dorin. He responded within 20-minutes! And two-days later he had workers on my roof making repairs. Today, my chimney and ceiling areas are “dry as a bone” (Smile). Thanks Dorin!"
"Mike and Jim were wonderful. Mike handled the interior project and Jim handled the exterior project. Very easy to work with. We had issues with the contract initially and getting the project moving because there was a change in Project management. But Jim the Owner was very generous to make things right once he took over the project. Schedule was done consistently to completion and we had a few cracked tiles after completion and they quickly came back to correct them. No issues now 1 year later. We love all they did. Quality is very good. I would recommend them to anyone now that Jim took over the project management. We purchased the door and tile ourselves so this is not in the cost of service."
"I called Ab Meyers on Thursday about installing a grip bar in my parent's powder room for my handicapped father. I explained that my father's PT wanted it ASAP. Ab called his foreman immediately and he scheduled the intallation the next morning. My son purchased the grab bar so it was available to them. The foreman arrived on time Friday morning and installed it securely. He was very pleasant and helpful. He even fixed the sink that was separating from the wall. My parents were very pleased with the service and the senior citizen discount. We would call them back for any other hanyman chores we need done. "
"P SQRD was very responsive!!! After a squirrel fell into my chimney, I called the Company to check the caps and seal any gaps. Although it was a small job, they provided same day service on a Sunday. I would definitely recommend their services."
"After hearing scratching noises, I found out that I had raccoons hanging out on my third floor roof and living in chimney. I checked Angie's List and called Critter Control. My first point of contact was with Jessica, who listened to my problem, then clearly explained their process and the possible costs involved. She emailed a contract to me immediately, and after providing them with some information, Steve and Bryan came out right away to assess the situation and make recommendations, which I accepted. They came by the house everyday to monitor the situation, and after the critters were gone, they installed 2 new stainless steel chimney caps, along with a dryer vent. I am so relieved that they could resolve my unfortunate situation in a professional and timely manner."
"I found them on Angie’s List. He showed me pictures of everything and what he took out. He showed me the work and it wasn’t like made up or anything. He took pictures before and after on the roof of the part that was rotten and after he redid it. I was happy with him. I looked afterwards and there was no complaint. They did it in a timely manner, like they said they would. There were rain delays and it wasn’t their problem. They never tried to change the price on me. They cleaned up like nails and stuff in the driveway. I checked the driveway and there weren’t any nails or anything. They did a pretty good job. They did fine and it was a good job. I did have other estimates and they were okay. They called and asked if anything was wrong, and it has been a year. They got delayed and the work got a little hurried but it was damp and they couldn’t get to it. They did everything they were going to do. They didn’t try to cover and not replace certain things to make more profit, and I see all new gutters and everything."
"Russ and his guys repaired our chimney, reset some loose window sills, and repaired a number of unsightly holes that were created when insulation was blown into the house some years ago. As soon as the weather got warm Russ called to schedule the job. They were there next day and had the job done in just over a day. They cleaned everything up afterwards. Russ gave us a fair price and honored the Angie's List discount."

If a range hood has minor issues, the average repair costs $85 to $210. This accounts for both parts and labor. More extensive damage can cost as much as $300 to $500, at which point it may be worth considering completely replacing the range hood.
Most residential range hoods have a CFM between 200 and 600. A higher CFM means your range hood is better at removing smoke and odors from your kitchen. The measurement ultimately depends on your stove’s width and heat output as well as the size of your kitchen.
Compared to the average size of a stove and kitchen, 350 CFM would be the minimum recommended rating for the average kitchen. However, selecting a higher CFM range hood would guarantee better ventilation to match your cooking habits, whether they’re minimal or extensive.
Typically 1-2 hours, factoring in ductwork and electrical connections.
A higher CFM will make the price of your range hood more expensive. It can be challenging to speculate how much the CFM rating affects price, but ductless range hoods—that don’t need as high of a CFM as ducted range hoods—are less expensive than their alternative. On average, ductless hoods cost between $100 and $300, while ducted hoods can cost as much as $1,000.
No, you can’t install just any microwave over your range. You have to get a specific type of microwave known as an over-the-range unit. These include venting and lighting features that you’ll need above your stovetop.
Although countertop units are more affordable, they won’t work for this type of installation. To avoid hazardous conditions in your kitchen, buy the right type of microwave for your needs.
