"Houston & Barnes Home Solutions delivered an outstanding experience. Cody and Gabe were fantastic from the moment they arrived. They installed multiple ceiling fans, a Ring floodlight, and a Ring camera on the opposite side of the house — all completed with skill and care.
What really stood out was how courteous, respectful, and easy to work with they were. They treated my home with care, listened closely to what I needed, and made sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted. Their knowledge showed in every step, and they kept a pleasant, positive attitude the entire time.
They arrived promptly, and even when one item came up that wasn’t included in the original quote, they handled it smoothly and kept the pricing very fair.
The quality of their work was excellent, and the value was even better. I’m extremely satisfied and would gladly recommend Houston & Barnes Home Solutions to anyone needing dependable home services."

Protecting homes and businesses since 1950, Guardian Protection is one of the nation's largest and most highly regarded security companies. We provide smart technology, 24/7 professional monitoring, and peace of mind to hundreds of thousands of customers. Our products are installed by experts, monitored by real people, and truly make a difference. We do what we do because of one simple truth: life is better when it's safe.
"We hired Guardian to install our security system at our Washington, DC, business. The service and quality of the work was horrible. We had cameras and an alarm system installed; it was a relatively large system. They outsource most of the work to various vendors. They could not manage their vendors; what was supposed to take a week took two months. The sales rep did not return calls, and you could never get anyone in management on the phone. Random people would show up at unannounced times. The few things that an actual Guardian employee did were they made a huge mess of our newly remodeled office and were rude to our staff. We have offices in five markets across the US and have high security at each; we have never had such a poor experience."

"Do not use SEUD for your underdeck system Wish there were negative Stars that I could give to this company. The under deck was installed in February of 2023, and it so happened that it rained the very next day, the underdeck was leaking live a sieve. (it still does) Southeastern Underdeck has in the last 17 months sent over their technicians multiple times - but have not been able to stop the leaks. (The frequent repairs have left the panels nicked and dented) They have blamed the the leaks on everything other than their poor workmanship and bad product (1) improper installation of the deck, (2) disregard of the codes during the installation of the deck, (3) missing flashing under the deck, (4) water collection on the deck, (5) the deck being painted rather stained, (6) the lack of gap between the planks in the deck, (7) the water gushing down from the roof, (8) the gutters being blocked and finally the leaks were ascribed to (9) a piece of rotting wood on the chimney and (10) gap where the chimney meets the roof. Before we opted for SEUD's underdeck system - We had a corrugated underdeck system that never leaked - What they fail to explain or comprehend is why we never experienced leaks in the old system. My recommendation HOLD ON to the amount that is due - till such time there is rain and you are convinced that the underdeck system does not leak. Have a look at this to see the extent of the leaks [*** Link removed ***] the old underdeck syste and did not leak the reason it was changed was because it was made of corrugated material"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts
When choosing the right size generator for your needs, consider a few items to help calculate the wattage you’ll need. Start by determining which household items and appliances you want to power, and then add the wattages together.
Check out the wattage of these essential appliances:
Refrigerator: 600 watts
Large dehumidifier: 700 watts
Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts
Water heater: 3,000 watts
Running home appliances like these requires a partial or whole-house generator. A portable generator may be enough to power your home if you only plan to keep a refrigerator and freezer running.
In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.
It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.
It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Generator size requirements vary wildly among properties, but typical generator sizes are listed below based on home square footage:
1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW
1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW
2,000 sq ft: 10–14kW
2,500 sq ft: 12–16kW
3,000 sq ft: 16–20kW+
Unfortunately, home square footage isn’t always a good indicator of generator size requirements. Instead, you should call in a professional to discuss which items in your home you’d like to run via your generator. They can calculate peak and average consumption for those items and then size your generator appropriately for optimal performance.
